JourneyApp.me is a journaling app written entirely in Swift for iOS. Create an account, write journal entries with advanced markdown (headings, lists, checkboxes, bold, italic, strikethrough, code, colored text, nested tokens, etc.), upload images, link locations, and add tags. Entries are listed by date and can be sorted newest to oldest or oldest to newest, search all entries for specific text, filter entries by locations or tags or a specified timeframe. Data is encrypted and stored on the server, and each account is further secured via JSON Web Tokens (JWT) for user sessions and via a unique API key only held by the user, so if you're not the owner then you can't view or edit the data. Images are encrypted and stored securely on Amazon S3, and are only accessible via a pre-signed URL held by the owner of the account.
