I agree about journaling. I'm not a huge fan of the word, but it's the best one I managed to come up with. I tried emphasising it on the main page, hoping it would clarify the meaning, but it's still a problem.
Export contacts/calendars: I feel the same. Currently there's only import from file (and a faq entry on how to export to vcf/ical). I even almost haven't published it to HN today, thinking I should wait until I finish import from other accounts, but decided against it in the end. I hope to have it ready in the coming days.
As for your final question: EteSync is a sync adapter, which means it seamlessly works in the background with your existing contacts and calendars app. Everything is automatic and seamless.
Unfortunately I still haven't found an easy way to convey this to users.
I would like to add a "first run guide", but I don't want to hit people with a wall of text, and regardless, I want people to know about it before they even consider downloading.
Please let me know if you have some suggestions on how to explain this to users without making it a burden. There's also a user guide in the app/website, but I don't think that's good enough.
Thanks for your feedback!
