Your writing now saves automatically as you type. If you leave an entry without tapping Save, go back, switch apps, or lock your phone, it will be there when you return. Photos you remove from an entry now stay removed. Previously a removed photo could reappear after the app synced.

Mood Insights now has its own place along the bottom of the screen, so your 30-day mood history is one tap away instead of tucked inside Profile. Categories has moved one spot along to make room. Nothing has been removed. Mood Insights now follows your light and dark mode setting.

User-facing. Plain, quiet, no jargon. Your entries now show the time you wrote them, alongside the date. It follows your phone’s clock settings, so you’ll see either 9:05 AM or 09:05. Resetting your password now happens in the app rather than opening a browser. Plus a few small fixes to how entries are displayed.

End-to-end encryption Your journal entries and photos are now encrypted on your device before they're stored. The key is derived from your password and never leaves your control, which means we cannot read your entries; not on our servers, not in a backup, not if we're asked to. A one-time recovery key Because we don't hold your key, we also can't reset it for you. The first time you open this version you'll be shown a recovery key and asked to save it. Please do — it's the only way back into your journal if you forget your password. If you lose both, your entries cannot be recovered by anyone, including us. That's the trade-off that makes the privacy guarantee real. Your existing entries Entries you've already written are encrypted automatically the first time you open this version. Nothing to do, and nothing is lost. Also in this release: app lock with Face ID, Touch ID, or passcode, and your journal is now hidden in the app switcher when app lock is on.
