at8pm is your honest journal. Every entry you write today locks at a time you choose β 8pm by default. Once it locks, that's it: no editing, no rewriting history, no quietly polishing what you actually felt in the moment. Just an honest record of your day, exactly as you wrote it. WRITE HOWEVER FITS THE MOMENT Type it out with rich text: bold, italic, underline, strikethrough. Or just talk β record a voice note right inside an entry and see it as a waveform, or capture a Squope, a quick square video note. No typing required. Add a photo or a location if the moment needs it. A HABIT THAT STICKS Keep your streak going day by day. A quick glance at your lock ring shows how much time is left before today closes β and a tap shows your current streak alongside it. MADE TO BE SHARED, SOMETIMES Turn any entry into a beautifully designed card β pick from several styles β and share it straight to Instagram Stories or anywhere else. Your private thoughts stay private until you decide otherwise. GENUINELY PRIVATE Entries sync across your devices with your own private iCloud account β never a third-party server.
