Lazy Diary — record your journeys and remember your stories. Busy days can make it hard to remember where you went and what happened along the way. Lazy Diary records your location history and lets you add notes, voice recordings and photos to the moments you want to keep. • Automatic location history Allow location access to record the places you visit. Look back at each day’s journey on a map and in a timeline. • Notes, voice recordings and photos Add details to the places you visit and turn your location history into a personal diary. • Browse and search Revisit past records through the calendar and search your notes and journeys. Tap a search result to view the full route for that day. • iCloud backup and restore Back up manually, let the app back up changed data in the background, and receive backup reminders. Restore an existing iCloud backup after reinstalling the app. • Local backup files Export your data as a backup file to keep a separate copy, then import it when you need to restore your records. • Sharing and app protection Share your journeys through the system share sheet. Set an app password and use biometric unlocking on supported devices. Please note: • Automatic recording requires location permission. Results may vary with location accuracy, permissions and system background activity restrictions. • Photo and voice recording features require the relevant permissions. • iCloud features require an Apple Account with iCloud Drive enabled. Use the same Apple Account to restore an existing backup. • iCloud provides backup and restore, rather than real-time syncing across devices. Restoring a backup replaces your current local data, so back up any records you want to keep first. • The app contains ads. Manual backups may require watching a rewarded ad when one is available. Restoring data and automatic background backups do not require watching ads. • Continued use of location services in the background may increase battery consumption.
