Customizable, Micro-habit, Private

I have been using this journal for several months now. I love how customizable it is. Life stages change and therefore journals shouldn’t be a one-size-fits-all. This app allows you to add and modify the questions based on your personal needs and wants. Other things I appreciate are the gentle reminders to help me solidify this micro-habit and also the complete ownership and privacy of the details I journal about.

Simple and effective

I’m enjoying this app. It’s simple to use so I can do it everyday. I love the photo each day, thoughtful journaling questions and I love NO ADS! Thanks for creating this and sharing.

Not normally a “journal person”

Daily journaling sounds overwhelming but this app makes it so easy. I look forward to putting in the daily info day and night. I LOVE that you can add your own fields and go back and look at your history and trends in a single category. Permanently a part of my daily habit now. 🩷
