Stash Journal — Cannabis Tracker Stash Journal is the most thoughtful way to track your cannabis experience. Whether you're exploring new strains, trying different products, or fine-tuning what works best for you, Stash Journal gives you a private, beautifully designed space to log, rate, and learn from every session. Your Complete Cannabis Journal Track both strains and products in one place. Log flower, pre-rolls, vapes, edibles, tinctures, concentrates, and more — each with their own detailed profile. Record the type, form, brand, potency, lineage, effects, flavors, and terpenes for everything in your stash. Add personal notes and star ratings to capture exactly how each experience felt. Stash AI Chat — Your Personal Cannabis Advisor Meet the AI that actually knows your stash. Stash AI Chat is a built-in conversational assistant that reads your entire journal — your strains, products, ratings, effects, and notes — and gives you personalized recommendations in real time. Just ask. "What should I try for a creative afternoon?" "Which of my indicas is best for winding down?" "I haven't tried anything new in a while — what fits my taste?" Stash AI searches your logged sessions, surfaces your highest-rated matches, and suggests new strains worth exploring — all based on your own data, not generic recommendations from the internet. Follow up naturally. Refine your question, dig deeper into a suggestion, or explore a different mood. Every answer is drawn from your personal journal — nobody else's. AI Auto-Fill — Just Type the Name Stop spending time on data entry. Stash Journal's built-in AI can automatically fill in a strain's description, lineage, effects, flavors, and terpenes the moment you type its name. Review the suggestions, make any tweaks, and save in seconds. The more you log, the better your personal records become. Label Scanner Point your camera at any product label and let the AI do the reading. Stash Journal's label scanner detects the product name, brand, THC percentage, and type automatically — so adding a new product is as fast as taking a photo. No more typing out every detail by hand. Detailed Strain & Product Profiles Every entry gets its own rich profile page. See your star rating, effects chips, flavor notes, lineage, terpenes, potency, personal notes, and usage history all in one beautifully organized view. Build a reference library of everything you've tried, exactly the way you remember it. Discover What Works for You Stash Journal learns your palate as you log. The dedicated Insights tab unlocks after your first five entries — surfacing your most-loved effects and flavors, average ratings by strain type, standout terpenes, and highlights from your journal. The more you track, the sharper the picture gets, so every session helps you make a more confident choice next time. Search & Filter Instantly Find any strain or product instantly with built-in search. Filter your journal by type, form, or effect to quickly surface what you're looking for — no scrolling through a long list. Private & Secure Sign in with Apple or Google. Your journal stays private, synced securely to your account, and accessible only to you. Clean, Natural Design Stash Journal was designed with an earthy, premium aesthetic that feels right at home on your iPhone — warm creams, forest greens, and a focused layout that keeps your data front and center. Stash Journal requires users to be 21 years of age or older. Available in the United States only. Built on Bainbridge Island.

Leaflog is your personal journal for cannabis. Remember what you tried, how it felt, and what you'd choose again, with everything stored on your device and nowhere else. YOUR JOURNAL Build a personal record of every strain you've tried. Note the strain type, THC and CBD percentages, photos, and your own observations. Star your favorites, then search, filter, and sort your collection by name, rating, or how often you've returned to it. SESSION LOGGING Capture each session in seconds: the date, the method (flower, vape, edible, concentrate, tincture, or topical), the amount, and how it felt. Choose from twenty effect tags, rate the experience one to five stars, and add any notes worth keeping. A LIBRARY OF 300+ STRAINS Browse a curated, fully offline reference library: lineage, dominant terpenes with their aromas, typical effects, and flavor notes for each strain. Trying something from the library? Add it to your journal with one tap and the details fill themselves in. STASH TRACKING Keep tabs on what's on hand. Log each batch with its amount, potency, and terpene readings, then mark it finished when it's gone. Leaflog remembers how long it lasted, so you always know what's active and what's history. EXPLORER Build your own charts from your journal, the strain library, and your stash. Pick a source, a dimension, and a chart style, or start from ready-made cards like Top Rated and Sessions Per Month, then save the explorations you want to keep. LEAFLOG+ (OPTIONAL) An optional monthly subscription that automatically backs up your journal, end-to-end encrypted with keys only you hold. Leaflog's servers can never read it. Restore everything on a new iPhone with your recovery code or iCloud Keychain. Cancel anytime; your journal stays fully usable without it. New subscribers start with a 1-week free trial. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Leaflog collects nothing. No account, no sign-up, no analytics. Your journal lives in a database on your iPhone, photos included, and leaves it only if you turn on the optional end-to-end encrypted Leaflog+ backup, which is encrypted on your device so only you can ever read it. The camera is used only to capture photos you choose to add. A PERSONAL JOURNAL, NOTHING MORE Leaflog does not sell, source, or promote cannabis, and includes no way to obtain it. It is a notebook for adults who want to remember their own experience. Know and follow the laws where you live.
