デザインが好き

シンプルながらオシャレに記録できてとても良いアプリです。
タイムスタンプ機能があり、一つの記事に一日分をまとめて記録する使い方をしています。
<06:00>起床 眠い
<09:00>掃除をした
みたいな感じで。アプリを長時間起動したままでも入力内容が勝手に消えたりしません。
ただ、入力し始めた後でホーム画面に戻る(左上の←をタップ、下にスワイプなど)と記事が個別に作成完了となってしまうので、完了させるかを選べると嬉しいなあと思います。

また修正の可否については、当該部分をドラッグで選択すると「誤字修正」できるようになっています。「考えを書く」という機能で引用もできます、これはとても面白い!
今後のアップデートがとても楽しみです。

2025.9.7追記
左上の←で記事保留できるようアプデされてて嬉しいです!
最初の画面で長押しすると日付移動できる、ダブルタップで今日に戻れることを今日気付きました。課金したのでアイコンを変えて楽しんでいます。

Timestamp choice suggestion

I wish there’s an option to make the time stamp the time you post the note, not the time you started it. Often times I start a note but leave it blank for a long while before writing anything down, in which case the starting time is a lot less relevant than the posting time

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback, it helped me understand different usage habits. I’ll make improvements so that everyone can choose which time to use for organizing their notes according to their preference. In the meantime, you can quickly achieve your goal this way (sorry, this needs to be done each time you submit): in the note editing screen, tap the moon icon next to the time in the top-right corner twice in a row to quickly adjust to the current time (the first tap will jump to the end of yesterday, and the second tap will return to the current time).

那个ui动效,比如,想下滑书写的页面太卡顿了,不流畅。还有,语音记录的时间的ui也是很卡。希望团队能够优化

其他都还可以,貌似写了就不能修改了

Response from developer

“写完不能修改”是刻意的设定哦,保留最初的思绪。关于你提到的UI卡顿,我会持续关注,目前大多反馈是丝滑流畅,所以可能是设备的小脾气,如果愿意的话,可以通过设置中的联系方式给我留言设备型号和系统版本,我来对症下药,希望能给你带来更丝滑的体验

Love it!

I like that I can write without going back to edit, which makes everything feel more honest. The design is calming, and the way it shows time passing with little dots feels really special. It helps me remember that every day matters.

Response from developer

Thank you so much — that really means a lot! I’m so glad the design and time map resonated with you. 🙏 If you ever have thoughts or suggestions, feel free to share!

こんな日記アプリを待ってました

「編集できない」というコンセプト、最初はびっくりしたけど、書いてみるとすごく気持ちよくて、自分を肯定できる感覚があります。光の波紋が1年かけてできていくのも楽しみです。
ただ、日記を書いた後、ほんの数分だけ「誤字修正モード」があってもいいかなと思いました😅
でもこの潔さも好きです。大事に使わせてもらいます!
