Some lives are simple. Yours isn't. Work projects, daily life, that promise you made to yourself last spring— in a busy life, the things that matter most are the first to fade. Jibunshi maps each thread of your life as a branch on your personal timeline, so the moments that matter don't quietly slip away. ■ Many stories, running at once. Your career, your relationships, your health—each on its own thread. See them woven together on one timeline, branching out and coming back. Years of your life, in one continuous scroll. ■ Ever forget something you swore you'd do? The intentions you keep only in your head fade the fastest. Save them as tasks, and a gentle reminder brings them back. Once done, each task becomes part of your story—not just a checkbox. ■ Made for people who: ・Want to keep the resolutions and small insights they once held dear ・Live multiple roles—work, home, growth—and want each one to have its own thread ・Want to see how mood and well-being shift across months and years ■ Some words aren't meant for the cloud. If your journal might end up somewhere you didn't choose, you'll never write what you really feel. Jibunshi keeps every word on your device and your private iCloud. Not a single line is sent to our servers. Ever. ■ Features ・Stories — the main timeline of your life ・Projects — each pursuit, a branch on the timeline ・Tasks & Reminders — capture intentions, complete them, keep the record ・Episodes — notes, thoughts, and moments in rich text ・Milestones — mark the turning points along the way ・Daily Log — mood, sleep, energy, and well-being across nine simple dimensions ・Insights — weekly, monthly, and yearly patterns ・iCloud auto-backup ・Import & Export ■ Jibunshi Premium Premium unlocks: ・Up to 10 Stories (Free: 1) ・Unlimited Projects (Free: 3) ・iCloud auto-backup ・Import & Export ・20+ theme colors -------------------- Terms of Use: https://jibunshi.app/terms Privacy Policy: https://jibunshi.app/privacy
