## What is Private Diary & Journal?

30K is a personal diary that gathers your life into a book.

Keeping a classic diary is boring. 30K works differently: drop in the fragments of your day — voice, a photo, a quick thought — and the app turns them into a coherent chronicle, gradually gathering them into a book about you. A diary you don't have to work at.

HOW IT WORKS

30K doesn't just record — it hears, sees, and senses: how you speak, what's around you, and what mood you're in. From a voice note it picks up emotion, pace, pauses, and the sounds around you (the street, a café, home, the road). With photos it's the same: in a selfie it reads your state, in the frame it catches the place and the detail you shot it for. And from the screenshots you save it sees what you lived through on your phone: what you read, watched, and scrolled, what caught you. It notices everything and assembles the full picture of your life — the one you don't usually see yourself.

These entries pile up — and come together into a book: not a retelling of your diary, but a story with characters, plotlines, and insights. You open it and see which new chapter has come out. Like a series, only about you.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.8 — 2026-09-08

Thank you for writing to us — we read every message. This update grew out of them.

• Your audiobook is noticeably faster to prepare, and the progress bar runs all the way.
• Voice notes no longer get stuck: if a transcription drops, the app finishes it on its own — and if it truly fails, it says so instead of spinning forever.
• One broken entry can't freeze syncing anymore — everything else gets through.
• Less waiting between turns in a conversation.
• A new icon. In your book, "Missing material" is now "Tell me more" — clearer about what it's for.

### 1.7 — 2026-08-31

• No wall while getting started: personal questions stay free until you've seen your first chapter.
• Your first chapter won't get lost: if it fails, we try again. And it finally writes in Japanese, Chinese and Thai.
• Straight to your diary after setup, no import window. Plus a fixed subscription screen: prices no longer stick as a dash, and Face ID no longer covers the payment sheet.

### 1.6 — 2026-08-27

Now you can just talk to your diary.

• A live voice conversation. Tap "Voice conversation" — your diary asks a question out loud, you answer with your voice, and it picks up the thread with barely a pause: no more record, wait, read. The whole conversation is saved into the entry, both as audio and as text. Pick the voice for questions in Profile, right next to Language.
• The first chapter no longer gets stuck. For some people the book could stay empty forever — now it retries on its own, and if something fails, the app tells you instead of going quiet.
• The time in your book is your time. Dates and hours in chapters and in the PDF export come from your time zone, not the server's — morning stops turning into the middle of the night.
• Entries actually arrive. We fixed a stuck upload queue, so your diary, photos, and voice notes sync instead of piling up for weeks. Language switches apply right away, and notes from photos come back in your diary's language.

Plus a brand-new welcome for anyone opening 30K for the first time.

### 1.5 — 2026-06-20

Your diary starts the conversation.

• Not sure where to begin? Tap "Ask me" — the app gives you a real question, by text or voice, to help you get going. A fresh one every time.
• Photos from anywhere. The photo button now lets you pick the source right away: camera, selfie, gallery, or screenshots.
• A clearer book. See what material it's still missing and what's newly appeared — and it builds out the structure on its own, without extra taps.

Thanks for keeping your diary with 30K. If something's off, drop us a line.

### 1.4 — 2026-06-18

Reminders got smarter and warmer.

• Real invitations instead of "Day N." Morning and evening, a genuine nudge to sit down with your diary — fresh every time.
• Reminders that fit your rhythm. The book gently brings up a topic you haven't explored yet and points you to a new chapter — more often when you're writing, softer when you've gone quiet.
• Cleaner Contents. A chapter the book just wrote or rewrote is marked with a soft blue dot — and it fades the moment you open it.

Thanks for keeping your diary with 30K. If something's off, drop us a line.
