Echo: Text, Images & Multimedia Journaling Rich text editing is supported, including bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, bulleted lists and numbered lists. You may also insert photos, videos and voice recordings amid your writing, so your journal entries transcend plain text. Photos & Live Photos Select multiple photos at once to form neatly arranged photo groups. Features include fullscreen viewing, horizontal navigation and pinch-to-zoom gestures. Full Live Photo support is available. Dynamic visuals and audio are preserved after insertion. Tap photos marked "Live" to replay the captured moment.
