Look back at your year, one day at a time. NEW: CALENDAR VIEW • A new Calendar tab shows the whole month at a glance. Days you wrote are filled in, so you can see your streaks and your gaps. • Tap any day with an entry to open it. • Swipe between months to browse your journal as far back as you started. NEW: ADD A MEMORY FOR A PAST DAY • Missed a day? Tap an empty day on the calendar to write the entry for that date, with a photo or just a line of text. • Still one entry per day. Past days can't be overwritten, and you can't write for the future. • Backdated entries show the right date everywhere: in your feed, grid, gallery, sharing and exports. IMPROVEMENTS • Entries are now ordered by the day they belong to, so a memory you add later slots into the right place in your timeline. • Text-only entries created for a past day show that day's date on the card. • Your export now names photos by the day of the entry. • Streaks and "already posted today" now follow the day of the entry, so filling in a past day never changes today's status. MonoLine is still one line and one photo a day, with no ads, no subscription and nothing to unlock.
