Roost: BuJo Notebook Companion

Bullet Journalling Capture

Free · In‑App Purchases

Your notebook is the system. Roost is just the buffer. Free, forever. Your notebook is the system. Roost is the buffer. Capture on your phone. Migrate to paper. Nothing stays digital. Roost is a temporary inbox for bullet journalers — designed to complement your physical journal, not replace it. Open, capture a thought with the right signifier, and get back to your day. When you're ready, migrate everything to your notebook one card at a time. TWO SCREENS. THAT'S IT. - Capture: Tap a signifier (task, event, note, priority), type, done. Resets instantly for the next item. - Migrate: A card stack shows one capture at a time. Swipe to clear. No cherry-picking, no skipping. Items are permanently deleted — just like crossing them off paper. - Sync: Capture on Apple Watch, iPhone, iPad, or Mac. iCloud keeps everything in sync. - Themes: 40+ themes to make Roost feel like yours. WHAT ROOST DOESN'T DO No tags. No folders. No search. No history. No edit. No archive. If you want a digital bullet journal, there are great apps for that. Roost is for people who already have a journal — the paper one. Built by a bullet journaler, for bullet journalers. Free with no ads.
