Changes - I Ching Journal is a free I Ching reader and private journal. All content and features are included, with no in-app purchases or subscriptions. It is built around three actions: ask, read, and record. You can cast with the traditional coin method, read the primary and relating hexagrams, explore judgments and line texts, and keep your question, mood, notes, follow-up reflections, and revisit reminders in one private space. This is not a fortune-scoring app and it does not decide good or bad luck for you. It is closer to a portable classical reader and a private journal: a way to slow down a question, read the text carefully, and keep a record you can return to later. Features: - Coin casting and Dayan probability mode - Read all 64 hexagrams, judgments, line texts, Tuan, Xiang, and Wenyan for Qian and Kun - Explore primary, relating, nuclear, opposite, and inverse hexagrams - Journal entries, mood notes, follow-up reflections, revisit reminders, and an 8x8 hexagram map - Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and English interface - Original text, bilingual comparison, and translation reading modes - Face ID / device passcode privacy lock - Widgets, Live Activities, Shortcuts, and local notifications - Markdown / PDF export Journal entries are stored on device by default. If iCloud is enabled, sync uses the user's private CloudKit container.
