UsJot: Family & Friends
Private diary, shared moments
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
A little room for your day. A little more time for your people. Keep a private diary, try an activity and return with gentle widgets—on iPhone and iPad.
A board game. A ten-minute call. Something that made today better. UsJot helps you keep the ordinary moments and make room for the next one—with family, friends and chosen family.
JUST WRITE ABOUT YOUR DAY
You do not need to record an activity to keep a private diary. Write freely, or use optional prompts for little wins, hard things, gratitude, excitement and what comes next. Continue a draft and edit saved pages. Writing a page does not change your connection rings.
SEE WHO YOU WANT TO KEEP CLOSE
Add the people who matter and choose a rhythm that fits. Connection rings gently show who may welcome a little attention, without scores, streaks or guilt. Quick Moment lets you choose multiple people and activities; one shared moment updates every selected connection.
MAKE AN IDEA INTO TIME TOGETHER
Start with 25 free activities. Interactive cards offer manageable steps and choices, with deeper activity packs available to purchase. Selected cards include short, optional how-to videos. Pin a card as Our Next Thing and choose whether to set a reminder. Together Time is an optional Lock Screen timer, never a recording or automatic completion.
COME BACK WITH A WIDGET
Choose from Your People, One Small Thing, Our Next Thing, A Page for Today, Keep This and Remember This. Find an accessible activity, return to your diary or keep a moment. Personal names and photos stay off unless you enable them. Lock Screen widgets do not display private writing, names or photos.
KEEP THE PHOTO AND THE MOVING VERSION
Attach up to five private photos or short videos to a memory; each video can be up to 60 seconds. Edit saved memories, add photos later and export your journal as a PDF.
ROOM TO BREATHE ON IPAD
A native sidebar and adaptive activity, people and journal layouts make use of the larger screen. Browse beside an activity or read your day in a separate pane when space allows.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account required. No advertising trackers, public feed or likes. Your journal stays in protected app storage. Back up or export only when you choose; private iCloud Family Backup is available with UsJot Plus. This is your own journal, not a shared social feed or automatic cross-device sync.
START FREE
UsJot Plus adds the full activity-pack collection, repeated-moment shortcuts, adaptive suggestions and private iCloud Family Backup. Subscribe monthly or annually, or buy individual activity packs as one-time purchases. Purchases are managed through your Apple ID and can be restored in the app.
