Log check-ins with mood, activities, and notes, revisit your history, search your entries, use built-in activities, and see basic insights about your patterns without subscribing. Dayfuku Pro adds more ways to personalize and understand your journal, including custom activities and categories, photo attachments, automatic context from steps, sleep, workouts, active energy, and places, private iCloud sync, appearance customization, App Lock, and advanced insights.

Use the list or calendar view to look back on what you have been building over time. Recommended for people who: ・want to focus on what they did, not what they could not do ・want a diary that is easy to continue ・want to track habits and small actions gently ・want to end each day with a little more self-recognition Done Diary is not about trying harder.
