About

Dayloom Journal

Features
Read full description

Dayloom is a calm, private journal for capturing your days by voice and photo โ€” no typing required. Some days deserve more than a text box. Speak a thought, add a photo, and Dayloom weaves them into a beautiful timeline of your life โ€” so the small moments don't slip away. CAPTURE BY VOICE Tap once and talk. Dayloom records a voice note โ€” a Murmur โ€” and transcribes it right on your iPhone, so you can read it back later. Tidy up the text before you save, or just let your own voice tell the story. SNAP THE MOMENT Add photos โ€” Frames โ€” straight into your entry: the morning light, a meal with family, the view from the top of a trail. YOUR DAYS, WOVEN TOGETHER Every voice note and photo lands inside a Thread โ€” your entry for a moment or a day. Your Threads stitch together into the Tapestry, a quiet timeline you can scroll back through any time. HANDS-FREE CAPTURE โ€ข Apple Watch โ€” record a voice note from your wrist, even without your phone in hand. โ€ข Siri โ€” say "Start Murmur in Dayloom" to capture hands-free, even from the Lock Screen. โ€ข Action Button โ€” set it once and capture a thought the instant it arrives. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your voice is transcribed entirely on your iPhone โ€” the audio is never sent to the cloud to be read. Your journal is yours, and it works offline. BACKED UP, EVERYWHERE Your entries sync automatically through iCloud, so they're safely backed up and waiting on every device signed in to your Apple Account. Whether you're keeping a daily journal, a gratitude practice, a memory keeper, or a voice diary, Dayloom helps you remember more of your life with less effort. Open it, speak, and get on with your day.
