A private diary that talks back — entirely on your device, never in the cloud. No accounts, no ads, no tracking. Just you and the page.
Confidant is a private diary that talks back — in its own voice, on your page, never as a chat bubble.
Write freely, and when it feels right, Confidant offers a short, thoughtful line in return: a gentle question, or simply an observation grounded in what you just wrote. It's not a therapist and never pretends to be — just a quiet presence that helps you go a little deeper.
Everything happens on your device. Confidant runs entirely on Apple's on-device Intelligence — nothing you write is ever sent to a server, logged, or used to train anything. No account, no sign-up, no ads, no analytics. Just you and the page.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Face ID or Touch ID locks your diary
• Incognito mode: write off the record, and it's gone the moment you turn it off
• Zero cloud storage — your words never leave your phone
A DIARY THAT LISTENS
• Gentle, specific follow-ups grounded in what you actually wrote — never generic "How does that make you feel?" prompts
• Turn off follow-ups anytime if you'd rather write in silence
PATTERNS, HONESTLY EARNED
• After enough entries across enough days, Confidant shows what keeps recurring — moods, themes, when you tend to write
• No pattern is shown before there's real signal behind it
Confidant requires a device with Apple Intelligence enabled.

New: Second Thoughts — turn on this ink style in Sanctuary and your diary occasionally revises one word of its own reply, like a hand catching itself mid-sentence. Small, rare, never intrusive.
Sage joins Cream, Linen, and Dusk as a paper option in Sanctuary.
Plus small polish throughout.
