New in 2.0: monthly reflections and a whole new look. Talk for a minute, get a page in your own words. Written on your iPhone, never sent to a server. Speak your day. Chronicles writes it down. Chronicles is a voice journal for full heads. Talk for thirty seconds or thirty minutes, and on-device AI turns it into a titled, readable page in your own words. When a month ends, it writes you a reflection on what kept coming up. Nothing you say is sent to a server. HOW IT WORKS 1. Talk. Tap record and say whatever's on your mind. No typing, no blank page. Stuck? Tap for a question to start with. 2. It writes. Every entry gets a title, a short summary and a clean transcript: your words, minus the ums. Switch to "As spoken" anytime, or play your own voice back. 3. Read it back. Your journal reads like a book, sorted by day and searchable by any word or month. MONTHLY REFLECTIONS At the end of every month, Chronicles writes you a short letter about the month you just had: what took up space, when you sounded lighter, what kept coming back. Threads follow the people, places and themes you mention most, with every entry they appear in. WHAT PEOPLE USE IT FOR - Brain dumps when your head won't quiet down - Processing the day on the way home - Dreams, before they fade - Gratitude, without the pressure of a streak - Venting: say it, close the app, move on PRIVATE BY DESIGN Recording, transcription and the AI that writes your entries and reflections all run on your iPhone. No account. No cloud AI. No tracking. Your journal stays on your iPhone and in your own iCloud backup, and you can export everything anytime, as Markdown or as a full archive with your audio. NO STREAKS. NO GUILT. Chronicles doesn't gamify your inner life. Talk when you need to. Skip a week. It'll be here. GOOD TO KNOW Chronicles uses Apple Intelligence on your iPhone, so it needs an iPhone 15 Pro or newer with Apple Intelligence turned on. Your first 5 entries are free. After that, subscribe monthly or yearly to keep recording. Everything you've already written stays yours to read and export. --- Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
