Common questions
Is my journal private?
Yes. Every entry is private by default and visible only to you. We never sell your data or show ads inside your journal.
Can I export my entries?
Absolutely. You can export all your entries as a clean PDF or plain-text file at any time from your account settings.
Is there a mobile app?
The web app is fully responsive and works great on any phone browser. Native iOS and Android apps are on the roadmap.
How does the streak work?
Write at least one entry on a calendar day to keep your streak alive. The streak counter resets to zero if you skip a day — so aim for consistency over length.
