## What is Minimalistic Daily Diary?

Writing is one of the most effective ways to become happier, more productive, and clearer in your thinking. It could be with a pen and paper, but it could also be with Minimalistic Daily Diary. By setting words to your feelings and thoughts helps you make sense of the world and your life. And by simply writing about your day you would be much more likely to achieve what you have set out to achieve. 

Benjamin Franklin once said, “Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing.” Which I believe is a great saying and gives us a great insight into why writing is so powerful.

With Minimalistic Daily Diary you are given a great and intuitive tool for writing about your day. The app is designed to help you focus on the text itself and therefore the app does not have any unnecessary features.

If you are not the writing type you could instead dictate your thoughts in an industry-leading speech-to-text recognition by Apple. You can choose between multiple languages so you can dictate in your language.

To remember your day and life even more vividly you can add images to your notes. They say an image says more than a thousand words I truly understand this saying. That is why I have enabled this function for you to use.

Minimalistic Daily Dairy is more than just a note-taking app and just as it has helped and empowered my life to use it and write down my thoughts, I truly believe it can and will help you! So, take a moment and install Minimalistic Daily Dairy and write about your day.

### 2/5 — bad.

*2024-09-24, version 1.2.1*

everything interesting is premium. full of ads.

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2024-03-09, version 1.2.1*

When you write stuff in the app, it doesn’t save it and drafts an ad just pops up and then your note just disappears and you have to wait for the ad to be over which is forever. This is a terrible app don’t download it!

### 5/5 — Simple and easy!

*2023-06-27, version 1.2.1*

Great app! I was looking for a minimalistic diary and this one is the best one I found, and I tried tons of them! 😅. Thanks for the app!

### 3/5 — Missing entry

*2023-03-15, version 1.2.1*

I absolutely loved this app, it's simple and easy but lately, I'll do an entry and I'll go back and it's missing as if I didn't input an entry or it won't update what I entered in within that same day. Because of that of the disappoints, now I have to find another app

### 1/5 — Premium other than ads

*2022-12-13, version 1.2.1*

Premium other than the ads being gone made no difference. I was disappointed, especially not being able to change dates as described in the list of things premium users get.  At this point I’m out cash and can’t use the app, maybe future updates will make it were you can change dates.

### 1/5 — Terrible app goes to hard to remove ads.

*2022-08-10*

Worst app. Needed a diary app to urgently jot something down. Spent 25 min doing a massive memory dump. Press the download button to save it and the screen says write your new entry. Goes to ads from Chinese websites. Lost everything I wrote. Not happy

### 2/5 — not a horrible app, but can be inconvenient

*2022-07-21, version 1.2*

so. many. ads. i mean, is it really necessary to have an ad every 2 minutes you’re on the app? fr

### 4/5 — functional

*2021-10-11, version 1.2*

great app, easy to use, does exactly what it looks like it does. doesn’t seem to have the dark theme shown in screenshots though.

### 1/5 — Stay away

*2021-04-27*

All my data has disappeared after the first day of using it

### 2/5 — Ich bin enttäuscht

*2020-03-25*

Die App an sich ist wirklich sehr übersichtlich und ich habe sehr lange Zeit nichts zum aussetzten gefunden- bis jetzt. Ich habe gerade bemerkt, dass man auf seine alten Tagebucheinträge nicht zurück greifen kann, wenn man nicht für die App bezahlt. Und das kann ich beim besten Willen nicht verstehen, weil es keinen Sinn macht. Ich würde es nicht empfehlen, diese App runterzuladen. Außer diese Sache wird aufgehoben.
