Murmur

Speak your mind โ Murmur listens, then writes back. Murmur is an AI voice journal that runs entirely on your phone. Record a voice note and it's transcribed, understood, and reflected back to you. No cloud. No account. No subscription. Nothing you say ever leaves your device. WHY MURMUR Most journaling apps quietly send your most private thoughts to a server. Murmur doesn't have one. Recording, transcription, and the AI reflections all happen on-device โ private by design, and it works in airplane mode. SPEAK, DON'T TYPE Talk for a minute about your day. Murmur turns it into clean text and remembers it for you โ no journaling homework, no blank page. AI THAT REFLECTS, NOT DIAGNOSES An on-device AI reads only your own notes and writes one short, warm reflection โ a mirror for your day. Never clinical, never a diagnosis. SEE YOUR WEEK Each week Murmur gathers your recurring themes and how the days felt into a short narrative summary โ the shape of your week, at a glance. A VOCABULARY FOR HOW YOU FEEL Twenty named, color-coded moods turn a month of feeling into something you can actually see, with trends and patterns over time. EVERYTHING ELSE โข A calendar that lights up as you show up, with streaks โข Full-text search across every entry โข Gentle daily and weekly reminders โข Home-screen widget โข Export to PDF โ on-device, nothing uploaded FREE, NO SUBSCRIPTION Murmur is completely free โ no subscription, no account, no ads, no in-app purchases. Voice notes and on-device AI reflections download a small language model to your phone the first time you use them; after that, everything runs offline. (The on-device AI needs a recent phone with enough memory. On lighter devices you get typed journaling, the calendar, streaks, search, reminders, the widget, and PDF export โ all free.) Your voice never leaves your phone. โ Privacy Policy: https://denid88.github.io/murmur-app/privacy.html Terms of Use: https://denid88.github.io/murmur-app/terms.html
