New: canvases for goals and sketches, right above the calendar. Write by hand with the pencil. Your diary stays in folders that belong to you.
Mokuso is a diary you write by hand, with the Apple Pencil, on a page that stays empty until you put something on it.
The palette opens where your pen already is — an arc of tools within a turn of the wrist, so your hand never crosses the page to reach them. Pick a nib and write. Place, date and time go down when you want them, and not before.
ONE DIARY, THREE DEVICES
Mokuso keeps your diary as plain folders in your own iCloud Drive — one folder per day, the ink in its own file, and a Markdown transcript beside it that any text editor on earth can open. iPad, iPhone and Mac share the same folders. Nothing lives in a database only Mokuso understands.
NOTHING HAPPENS BY ITSELF
A fresh page is empty. Every block is one you placed: a passage of handwriting, a timestamp, the place, the date. The diary does not arrange your day for you.
CANVASES BESIDE THE DIARY
What belongs to no single day has a place of its own: goals, plans, sketches to clear your head. Above the calendar runs a row of canvases, each an endless surface that grows in every direction. Fountain pen, ballpoint, pencil, marker and eraser, six ink colours and three stroke widths for each tool. A canvas opens where you left it. One is free; more come with the subscription.
QUIET BY DESIGN
No feed, no streaks, no reminders, no accounts. Handwriting is transcribed on the device itself and never leaves it. There is no server to send it to.
YOURS TO KEEP
Because a day is an ordinary folder, you can copy it, back it up, or read it in twenty years without Mokuso. Lock the app behind Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode, or leave it open — that is a decision each device makes for itself.
Reading your diary is always free. So are the first three days you write in. After that, one subscription covers iPad, iPhone and Mac together.
WRITING WITH THE APPLE PENCIL
Writing happens with the Apple Pencil on an iPad. iPhone and Mac read your diary, and so does an iPad without an Apple Pencil.

Ratings & Reviews

Neu: Canvases. Über dem Kalender steht jetzt eine Reihe endloser Zeichenflächen für alles, was keinem Tag gehört — Ziele, Pläne, Skizzen, um den Kopf freizubekommen.
• Ein neuer Canvas braucht nur einen Titel, dann wird gezeichnet. Umbenennen und löschen geht mit einem langen Druck auf seinen Kreis.
• Füller, Kugelschreiber, Bleistift, Marker und Radierer, in sechs Tintenfarben.
• Drei Strichstärken je Werkzeug, hinter einem zweiten Tipp auf das gewählte Werkzeug. Jedes Werkzeug merkt sich seine eigene, und jeder Canvas behält sie.
• Das Papier wächst in alle vier Richtungen mit, herauszoomen geht so weit du willst.
• Ein Canvas öffnet genau dort, wo du ihn verlassen hast — dieselbe Stelle, derselbe Zoom.
• Die Palette öffnet sich auch mit einem Doppeltipp auf den Stift oder einem Drücken des Stifts und liegt immer ganz im Bild.
• Ein Canvas ist kostenlos, weitere gehören zum Abo.
Außerdem ist Mokuso jetzt ganz Handschrift: Geschrieben wird mit dem Stift, ein Finger blättert immer, und auf dem Papier steht nur noch, was du geschrieben hast. Auf einem Gerät ohne Stift öffnet sich dein Tagebuch zum Lesen. Was du früher getippt hast, bleibt erhalten.
