About Only a Diary
Just a diary. Nothing else.
No ads. No notifications. No streaks. No AI writing back to you.
It never nags you to write, and it says nothing when you finish.
■ Works with no network
On a plane, underground, anywhere with no signal — you write exactly as always.
So does reading back, adding photos, and searching by words.
There is no loading screen, because your diary is already on your device.
There is nowhere to go and fetch it from.
■ Where your entries live
On your device, and nowhere else. There is no developer server,
so there is no route by which your entries could reach anyone.
It connects only when you press "Back up now" or "Restore".
The destination is the private area of your own iCloud,
which the developer cannot see.
■ Take all of it with you, anytime
Export everything, as often as you like. What comes out is
plain text, JSON and images, so it can be read without this app.
Changing phones is just importing that file on the new one.
If you don't like it, take your diary and go.
■ One payment
Pay once at the start, and that is the end of it.
There is no monthly fee, and nothing you can do today
moves behind a paid tier tomorrow.
■ What it does
- Write. Photos go anywhere in the text
- Saved as you write
- Search everything you have written, by the words in it
- Passcode and Face ID / Touch ID, if you want them
- Five looks, or follow the device
■ One thing we ask
A diary that lives only on your device is a diary you lose
when you lose the device. Export it to a file now and then,
and keep that file somewhere other than the device.
With this design, that is the one sure safeguard.
