Your entries can now remember where they happened. The map is free. Pro reads your places back to you, what changed, what repeated, and when.
One question per day. That's it.
Every day, a single question appears. You answer it once—then it's locked.
No editing. No rewriting. No polishing. Just honest reflection.
Written on paper, not on a screen. Serif type, warm ink, a page with grain. The question is the title and the rest of the page is yours.
Why it works:
• One thought a day, finished and set down
• A record that builds itself while you're not looking
• Private enough to be honest in
Every day:
• A new question each morning, and a reminder at the hour you actually write
• Answers lock the moment you save
• Mark how you felt, or leave it blank
• A few words back after you write, drawn from the week behind your entry
Looking back:
• Past Entries as a timeline you can search and filter by mood
• On This Day — what you wrote a week, a month, six months, a year ago
• Year in Review — the whole year as a calendar of moods
• Insights — streaks, patterns, and weekly and monthly reflections
Wherever you write:
• Apple Watch, with dictation and complications
• Apple Vision Pro, for writing in a space of your own
• Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets
• iPad, in split view
Yours to keep:
Your entries stay on your device and sync only through your own iCloud account. Nothing you write is used for analytics. Export everything as plain text whenever you want.
Open the app. Reflect. Answer. Close. Repeat.
Simple. Private. Yours.

Your entries can now remember where they happened.
Places, free for everyone
Tap "Add place" beside the date and the day keeps where you were. Every place you keep appears on the Journal Map, coloured by how you felt, and each town gets a page listing every memory you made there. Nothing here is behind a subscription, the map, the places and every entry are free, as they have always been.
One Question Pro
Pro reads those places back to you. A town's page gains "What Stockholm holds", sentences drawn from your own entries, about how the feeling of a place moved between its early and later days, which corner of it you kept returning to, or a word that keeps coming up in what you wrote there. A rail of months moves the whole page, the map included, through the time you spent there.
Pro also opens the rest of the Rediscover prompts on Your Places, a season you wrote in before, the place you have not been back to, where it all started.
These observations wait until there is enough behind them to be true. A place with two days in it says so rather than inventing a story.
Also in this version
An entry's page now shows where it happened on a map, the other days you wrote at that exact spot, and the affirmation it earned. Anniversaries of a day you wrote somewhere can arrive as a notification, at most one a month.
About location
Location is optional and off until you ask for it. It is never collected in the background, it syncs with your journal in your own iCloud, and it never reaches our analytics.
