What's New in LayerYear

1.1

October 4, 2026

• Search: find any note you've written, all in one place. • LayerYear Moments widget: rotates through On This Day, Today and your Routines, and lets you check off routines right on the widget. • On This Day now appears below your records on Today, so entries from the same date in past years are always close at hand. • Today's mood: pick a mood for the day. • Keep writing right after adding an entry, and bring a deleted entry back with Undo. • Go to Date in Timeline takes you straight to any day, and photos appear faster. • Photo dates and times now follow the time zone where each photo was taken. • Add notes with Siri and Shortcuts. • Plus many usability improvements and bug fixes.

특별할거 없는 몇해전의 오늘이 이렇게 돌아보니 특별한 하루였던거 같은느낌..
저땐 무슨생각으로 저랬을까도 싶지만
저날의 분위기,온도,냄새,기분이 생각나니 나도모르게 설렘이 느껴지네요

일상 기록에 최적화된 앱

오늘 기분이나 상황, 몇 줄로 간단하게 일기처럼 남길 수 있어서 좋아요~ 또 오늘 날짜에 맞춰서 n년전 같은날짜에 찍은 사진들이 뜨는데, 이때 내가 뭘 했고 누구와 있었고, 뭘먹었는지, 어딜갔었는지 등등 타임라인에 떠서 추억 여행하기 좋습니다ㅎㅎ 보통은 그냥 사진만 보면서 가물가물 추억했는데, 이 어플에 간단히 뭐라두 메모해놓으면 내년에 보았을때 더 느끼는게 많아질 것 같네요~ 좋은 추억저장소예요

강추 원하던 앱

호보니치 5년 다이어리 쓰면서 같은 날 여러 해의 내 삶을 한눈에 보는 재미가 컸는데.
설치하자마자 사진기록으로 한번에 나열 기록되서 만족스러워.
디지털 강점 여러 기능들이 더해져
나만의 소장으로 기록 누출 우려도 없고 가겹고 철저한 앱이네요.
강추 합니다.
