Start with one short entry
Ordinary entries, replies, quotes, and basic Articles are free, with unlimited ordinary entry length and unlimited entry count. Premium unlocks advanced capabilities.
Replies continue an existing thought. Quotes place an older entry beside a new one, so a private timeline can grow without becoming a public feed.
Your writing starts on your device
The app has no app account or developer-hosted diary server. Version 1.8 saves content locally first on every supported platform, and verified Premium users can turn on private iCloud sync for eligible diary data.
The App Store page is the source for current availability, compatibility, and regional purchase information.
New in version 1.8
A refreshed People experience, recent Apple workouts in entries and Articles, and new ways to make your widgets personal.
Revisit the moments connected to the people you mention. Add recent Apple workouts to entries and Articles on iPhone and iPad. An extra-large Analytics widget and a custom image-and-text widget join the collection.
Bring older writing with you
Premium Beta import works locally with common text and document formats, structured files, PDF text or OCR, and recognized X, Instagram, or Facebook archive ZIPs.
Beta export creates a photo-aware DOCX or a Markdown ZIP. Imported Content Management can remove imported threads in one action.
