Read full descriptionHide full description
Aside is a journal built around how you actually think, not a blank page waiting for a perfect first sentence. Speak an entry, or type it if you'd prefer. Attach a photo to hold onto a moment, tag it so it's easy to find later. Once a day settles, Aside writes a short reflection noticing what actually stood out, plainly and without ever rewriting your words. Once a week, a longer one — a mood that shifted, a person who came up more than once, a contrast worth sitting with, written like a thoughtful note. Everything is organized by day and by week, always there to look back on. Export your full journal, entries and photos, whenever you want it. Aside. Capture life, notice patterns.
