Quillow is a private diary that feels like a paper notebook — cream pages, a soft serif hand, a cover you open like a ritual. Around it lives a little more of your life: a to-do list for each day, a shelf for your wishes, and shelves for the films, books, places and people that matter to you. It's built on one quiet idea: a diary should be yours alone. Nothing you write ever leaves your device. No account, no sign-up, no ads, no tracking. If you want your diary on more than one device, turn on iCloud sync — it travels only through your own private iCloud, where even we can't see it. On iPhone, Quillow may ask once whether you'd like to help with anonymous usage statistics: only if you say yes, and never anything you write. WRITE, SIMPLY Open to today and start writing. The text sits on the ruled page and flows around anything you add. Bullets and checklists, bold and italic when you want them. Gentle prompts wait on an empty page when you're not sure how to begin — never a nag. MAKE IT A MEMORY, NOT JUST TEXT - Photos, tucked onto the page like polaroids - Short videos and round video notes - Voice notes in your own voice - A song of the day, with a 30-second preview - Little drawings, right on the paper - A mood for the day, if you feel like marking it - The place you spent the day, on a paper world map — and trips you can replay as a little story FILMS, BOOKS, PLACES, PEOPLE Keep what you've watched, read and visited — with a cover, stars and a few words of your own — and a list of what you still want to. Tick off a wish with a little stamp and say how it was. A film, book or place shows what you wrote in your diary that day; mention a film or a friend on a page, and their card remembers every day they appear. Open a place in Apple Maps or Google Maps, or send it to a friend. People keep their birthdays: Quillow can remind you that morning and shows the name at the top of the day's page. TO DO A list for each day, beside your page. Things done land on that day; things left over are gently offered for today. Someday keeps what has no day yet. Reminders ring on all your devices. I WANT TO Dreams for a lifetime, and a vision board for the year — your own pictures and a few words, arranged the way you like. Mark a wish "Came true" and that day's page gets a small star. WRITE IT, BURN IT For what you'd rather not keep: write it out on a loose leaf, lay a photo on it if you like, and burn it. It never goes into the diary, its backups or iCloud. KEEP IT YOURS - Lock it with Face ID / Touch ID, or a private Quillow passcode with a recovery code - Everything stored on device; optional, private iCloud sync across your devices - Export a backup whenever you like — an ordinary zip, with your photos and recordings as plain files QUIET RITUALS, NOT DARK PATTERNS No streaks that punish you, no endless feed, no likes. Quillow brings you back through meaning: a weekly look-back, a personal retrospective, time capsules you write to your future self. MAKE IT FEEL LIKE YOURS Choose your paper, cover, hand and ruling (lines, dots or blank). Under the page, if you like, a quiet sound: rain, a summer night, a breeze or dark noise. Warm by day, easy on the eyes at night. Quillow is for your real life — the small moments, the honest ones. A calm corner that's only yours. Quillow Plus is optional: a monthly or yearly subscription (the first week is free) or a one-time purchase. It adds every theme, hand, atmosphere and background sound, trips, all four shelves (without Plus you add to the first one you start), up to five notebooks, as many wishes as you like, and colours and styles for your words. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage them in your Apple Account settings. If Plus ends, nothing you've chosen or made is taken away.

From five on they arrive as a small pile — spread them out or leaf through them; any photo opens the day's photos full screen. Places keep photos now: the dish, the room, the view — a row of them under the cover, to leaf through. With Quillow Plus, short videos too. Choose the background sound right from the round icon at the top of the page. Notes stay in the order you give them — hold one and move it; pinned ones stay on top. One vision board, for good: it doesn't start over on 1 January, and a board you don't need can be deleted. And: four or more people under "With" fold into "+3", Done closes just the field you're in, and the page's name stays in the header as you scroll. ### 4.4.0 — 2026-11-05 Background sounds under the page: rain, a summer night, a breeze or dark noise. Turn them on in Settings → Sound & feel; the round icon at the top of the page holds the switch and the volume. They hush for voice notes, songs and videos, and never stop your music. Rain and dark noise are free; the night and the breeze come with Quillow Plus. A new thing to do opens on its own sheet: what to do, a few small steps inside it, a note, its day and a reminder. Things are ticked off with a pencil tick now, on lines drawn as if by hand — and the week above the list folds away under a small tab. A little note pinned at the top of the page, with a few words to keep you company — "Slow is still forward" to begin with. Tap it to write your own and choose its paper; Settings → Appearance → Pinned phrase turns it off. And: a paused song on the music card offers to continue, and Sound & feel has moved up in Settings. ### 4.3.0 — 2026-11-03 A password for your backup: switch it on in Settings → Backup, and the archive can't be unpacked without it — so nothing from it ever turns up in your phone's search. Finder, Files and Windows all ask for it. Quillow now speaks German — Willkommen! Places: open one in Apple Maps or Google Maps, copy it, or send it to a friend. Ticking off a film, book or place from your "want to" list? A small card asks how it was — stars and a few words, right there. And each film, book and place now shows what you wrote in your diary that day. Formatting and links right above the keyboard: the new Aa and link buttons work on the selected words, or the word under the cursor. And: Done on a card takes you back to the list, and the French, Spanish and Finnish translations read more naturally. ### 4.2.0 — 2026-10-27 Write it, burn it: in + there's now a leaf for what you'd rather not keep. Write it out, lay a photo on it if you like, and burn it — it catches fire and is gone, from everywhere. It never goes into the diary, its backups or iCloud. Birthdays: switch them on in Settings and Quillow reminds you on the morning of the day, and shows the name at the top of that day's page. Help improve Quillow (iPhone): only if you agree, an anonymous daily count of which features and themes are used — never anything you write. You can change your mind in Settings at any time. And: a new diary starts on light or dark paper to match your device, people's photos have softer corners, and Settings → Music shows what the record does. ### 4.1.0 — 2026-10-25 Lists on the page: bullets and checklists, drawn as if by hand. Tap a circle to tick it off — the line is struck through and softened. On iPhone they're on the strip above the keyboard; on Mac, ⇧⌘L and ⇧⌘7. Notebooks: pin a note to the top, format it like a diary page, and make lists from the strip above the keyboard. People: hold and drag to put them in your own order. And smoother all round: the world map glides when zoomed in, the page runs down to the edge of the screen, the tabs on the edge are bigger and scroll when there are many, and on Mac the page scrolls on past the last line. ## Apps similar to Quillow | App | Rating | Price | Category | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [Boop Diary: Habit Tracker](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/boop-diary-habit-tracker/id6818434144) | — | Free | Lifestyle | | [Moss: Private Journal & Diary](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/moss-private-journal-and-diary/id6815205473) | 5.0 (1) | Free | Lifestyle | | [Diary of the Day](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/diary-of-the-day/id6821305556) | — | Free | Lifestyle | | [Lanternly: Journal & Diary](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/lanternly-journal-and-diary/id6807852527) | — | Free | Lifestyle | | [Molog - Photo Calendar & Diary](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/molog-photo-calendar-and-diary/id6793355008) | — | Free | Lifestyle | | [3 Good Things - Gratitude Log](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/3-good-things-gratitude-log/id6772115450) | — | Free | Lifestyle | --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
