Town Notes vs Daily One Word

Town Notes is a page for the things worth writing down. No account. No feed. Nothing to configure. You open it and there is a blank page — write the weather, the mood, what you spent at the noodle shop, the day the osmanthus bloomed down the alley. OPEN AND WRITE The editor opens straight away. The first line becomes the title; the rest is yours. Every card in the list shows its opening lines, so you can pick a note out at a glance. FIND ANY NOTE Search titles, body text and dates at once. Type "osmanthus" and the related notes appear; type "October" and that month comes back. The count updates as you type. WORDS, PHOTOS AND DOODLES IN ONE NOTE Rich text with images inline — pick one from your library or shoot it on the spot. Want to sketch something? Draw it with a finger and drop it straight into the note. LOCK THE ONES THAT MATTER Put a passcode on a single note. It is stored on your device only. REMINDERS THAT ACTUALLY REMIND Set a time on a note and get a notification when it is due. EASY ON THE EYES AT NIGHT Full dark mode that follows the system setting. YOUR NOTES STAY ON YOUR PHONE No sign-up. Works offline. Everything is stored locally — nothing is uploaded, collected or analysed. Available in English and Simplified Chinese.

Daily One Word is a private one-word journal for days that do not need a full entry. Save one anchor word for today. Choose a color tile for that word; the color can express the feeling of the moment without a separate mood choice. Add another moment, note, or photo only if you choose. Your entries form a calm color timeline you can revisit in a monthly reflection. Reminders are optional, and there are no streaks to maintain. • Save one anchor word a day and choose its color tile • Add optional moments, notes, or photos • On-device timeline and monthly reflection • Optional reminders • No account, cloud sync, ads, analytics SDK, advertising identifier, or third-party tracking • Optional Face ID or device passcode app lock protects the interface; it is not storage encryption • English and Simplified Chinese support Your journal stays on this device by default.
