Short lines settle into the grain of a week, the shape of a month, the story of a year. Sediment is a quiet archive built for stacking, not writing. — You don't have to write well One line is enough. So is one photo. Don't arrange your thoughts. Leave them as they come. — Time does the sorting After seven days, your first weekly layer is woven. Four weeks make a monthly. Then quarterly, then yearly. Scattered fragments find their place. — AI traces the grain Recurring currents, moments of change, words appearing for the first time — Google Gemini AI points them out. You spend less time looking back. Sediment is not a substitute for medical or psychological care; it offers observation only. — Start anonymous No email, no name asked. Like it? Link an Apple, Google, or email account later. Your fragments come along. — It's yours Your fragments belong to you. We just hold them for a while. Export or erase everything anytime. No ads, no tracking, no data sales. Features • Text + photo fragments (short, often) • Today timeline + streak counter • AI Chronicles — auto-generated weekly / monthly / quarterly / yearly layers • AI-assisted one-liner — for days when words won’t come • Korean, English, and Japanese 50 credits per month are refilled automatically, free. Sediment Pro unlocks unlimited weaving for those who write more. What settles, stays.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Sediment at daily against JustNote's fortnightly. Sediment also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
