I really like Day One for journaling. It’s a very clean experience though I admit I don’t journal everyday.
I have bristled against the idea of subscribing to it as an app. I think It’s a great app, and I want to support the author, but subscription to apps just rubs me the wrong way. So I live in the free mode.
I’ve tried a few alternatives that are free (including markdown and plain text), but always come back to it because it’s so comfortable.
- swatcoder 4y agoYes, Day One is great. I push about 30k-50k words of text journaling into it per year, for about 6 or 7 years now, and it handles it seamlessly while keeping everything organized. The most important feature to me is that it feels lightweight and lagless to open the app and get to typing. My impression is that Day One has a ton of features for people who want multimedia entries, or sharing, or all the other bullet points that keep it from getting squeezed out by competitors, but it seems to keep those out of the hot path so that my own niche experience is never ruined by bloat.
