Diarium

For years I’ve been wanting to get all of my journals (handwritten and electronic files), drawings and photos in one place and in chronological order. I wanted to be able to search, sort, use across multiple platforms, add photos and labels. I also wanted to be able to print it. I’ve only had this app for a couple weeks but it seems to be ticking all the boxes. I’m handling all of my backlog by adding pictures of my handwritten journal entries by date and adding tags. Adding pictures and files is easy. I add a little each day while keeping up with my current journal. This app allows me to type on the computer or use speech to text on my phone giving me multiple options to add to my journal. I will not completely give up hand writing my journal, so I can still continue to add pictures of my handwritten journals, but when I am out and about it is so easy to add in a thought for the day. I am still fiddling with the export to print. I have only tried it once and the formatting was the only thing I was not 100% pleased with, it seems pretty basic and I am hoping I can easily do some reformatting. I’m still giving this app five stars.

I like remembering details... how I felt, thoughts, things I did, said, promises I’ve made, goals, and much more. This is my favorite diary app because it enables me to capture the present, be reminded of the past, and plan for my future. I record everything I do each day and try to back log as much as possible from before downloading the app. I also use it on my computer and it is just as good if not better because typing is easier. With the new features I can structure my entries to look nicer. I really like using bullet points to capture simple and clear logs of what I did each day. My life has become a documented story and I especially like adding pictures everyday. I can recall what I had for dinner 2 years ago on a specific day and time. I can recall, how I felt about a decision I made in the past and make better choices for the future. I can plan/set goals for the future and then see if I accomplished them. I highly recommend this app if you’re interested in journaling, self-reflection, tracking your life, remembering, notes, and much more. I especially like how I can use my own personal cloud for saving my data. This gives me the freedom to choose between OneDrive, google cloud, and other reputable cloud storage options. This provides some level of comfort that my personal information goes where I choose. This app is a great tool and I highly recommend it!

I purchased this app a short while ago. I was looking for something like Day One that wouldn’t require a subscription or cost a fortune. So I went looking online for advice from others, and heard about this so I gave it a try. I love it! It does what you’d expect from a journaling app, and goes the extra mile. I love that it automatically puts pictures you’ve taken on a particular day along with your journal entry, so you have visual reminders as you look back. I have yet to use all of the features, but it allows for taking subjects and people and has a map feature and a timeline and calendars view. I don’t know why anyone would need anything more. Thanks to the developer for a fine app - that doesn’t cost a fortune!
