About

Voice journal

Read full description

Vidlun is a voice journal for how the day actually felt. You say one sentence. Vidlun turns it into text on your phone, listens for the feeling behind the words, and offers names for it - which you are always free to change or refuse. Over days the entries become a journal; over months, a picture of you. HOW IT WORKS β€’ Tap, speak, done - an entry takes under a minute β€’ Speech is recognised on your phone by Vidlun's built-in model - Ukrainian, English and the mix of them - with nothing to download. The audio never leaves your phone β€’ Vidlun offers the emotion words closest to what you said: pick one or several, or add your own β€’ Set the mood on the same card and see what the entry was about - work, family, the gym. Remove any topic that doesn't fit β€’ Every entry lands in a journal you can reread and filter by emotion β€’ A colour-coded week shows how the days sat together β€’ See which emotions came up most each month, and which only rarely β€’ A minute for yourself: a short grounding exercise for when you want to stop for a moment. Nothing is recorded FREE FOREVER Recording up to a minute, on-device transcription, emotion names, the journal and its emotion filter, the mood chart, how often each emotion came up, and the grounding exercise. THE MONTHLY NARRATIVE (subscription) Once a month Vidlun reads your entries and writes what it noticed: how the tone moved, what kept coming back, which weeks stood apart. Past months stay in a list to read again. Subscribers also get observations on single entries, the week's topics and patterns, and recordings up to five minutes. The subscription is monthly and renews automatically until cancelled in your App Store settings. PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE No account. No sign-up. No analytics. Your recordings stay on your phone and delete themselves after thirteen months; the written entries stay for good. Only the text of an entry is sent, over an authenticated channel, to generate the analysis - never the audio, never your name. Vidlun is a journal, not a medical service. It does not diagnose and does not replace professional help. Terms: https://vidlun.app/terms-en Privacy: https://vidlun.app/privacy-en
