Lognote turns quick notes into a clear chronological record. Every entry receives an automatic timestamp down to the second, so you can capture what happened and when without interrupting the moment. Use it as a private notebook, a personal journal, a work log, an incident record, a running report or a place for ideas. Unlike a blank document, Lognote keeps short entries in chronological context. CHOOSE THE VIEW THAT FITS On iPhone and iPad: • Bubble: a modern, clear timeline for everyday capture • Journal: a calm, spacious view for reflection • Classic: a compact, timestamp-first list CAPTURE NOW, ORGANIZE LATER Write directly in a group or send an unsorted thought to Inbox. Quick Notes turn things you record repeatedly into one-tap timestamped entries. Format text and save links; optional link previews keep useful context visible. Groups keep projects, people, routines, shifts, trips and personal topics separate. RETURN TO ANY MOMENT Search note text, browse by date, sort and filter your timeline, and use statistics to see patterns in how you write and log. TURN NOTES INTO USEFUL RECORDS Export notes as plain text, CSV, JSON or PDF. Create local backups you control and review saved changes in the Audit Log. Lognote Pro adds export date ranges and advanced audit search, filters and export. LOCAL FIRST, BY DESIGN Core writing works offline and without an account. Your notes are saved locally first.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Lognote holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lognote has 44 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Timestamp Marker's written reviews are positive against 93% of Lognote's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Timestamp Marker ships an update every 6 weeks, Lognote every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on August 29, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
