Commentary: I don’t use Journal every night, but even opening the app and looking back helps put time into perspective.

      Hey, they did say it stays on ur iPhone…/Sheesh

      Edit: I’m pleasantly surprised by the Privacy Nutrition Label. Touché, Apple, perhaps there’s hope for them yet ;)

      Yes I really wanted that and import.

      But what I saw of it made me use it more than my dedicated journal app that has more features that I want. Now that they updated for the SDK let me see how they are doing over the next couple of weeks.

          Yes, because the entry is almost already done for you. You just write what you feel about it. No curating tour pictures etc.

          The entry isn’t exactly like how I would want it but it isms close and it would have things in there like the location which I always set in my diaro entry and what it choose to be the best pictures.

          It also adds suggestions that I normally wouldn’t write about like my walk or jog, but then because it is already compiled I just jot something down quickly.

        Export to cleartext files or markdowns, so you can keep your data if you ever decide to delete your icloud account, or get an android phone, etc.

        Can’t believe this has to be explained, but a Journal is almost by definition something that you want to keep forever. Do you want to lock yourself into Apple devices forever? Have you ever heard of Nokia?

          I can’t believe I have to explain this but Apple’s strength comes from their ecosystem. From smart home devices to appliances, to copy paste between devices, storing files in iCloud, air drop, and much much more.

          There are a plethora of journal apps that will likely do what you want. Moreover, now. After all Apple has done to build and advance their ecosystem, now. A journal app. That’s the deal breaker?

          Like I said, coocoo.

            For me this isn’t really a red flag but it is a big omission.

            And it is the ecosystem that allows it to give you all that nice suggestions etc

            I also don’t know how you would handle the export with all the exercise data etc there as well.

            But a lot of apples products do have export like numbers pages etc. It is still in beta for its first release, maybe it will still come
