Private by design
Everlog has no accounts and no servers of its own. Your journal lives on your devices and in your own iCloud, and nowhere else.

- Your iCloud onlyEntries never touch our servers, because we don’t have any.
- Face ID and passcodeLock the app, and keep journal names out of widgets and Siri.
- Encrypted backupsWith a key only your devices hold. Export everything, any time.
Recaps use Apple Intelligence, on your device or in Apple’s Private Cloud Compute. Never a third-party AI.
Capture the whole day
Photos and Live Photos, voice notes with transcription, the place and the weather. Add the song you had on, your workout route and your mood with Journaling Suggestions.
Look back
On This Day brings back what you wrote on this date in past years, and you can add a comment with how you see it now. Every month and year gets a recap, with your photos, your numbers and a short summary.
Write without friction
A quiet editor with Markdown, checklists and highlights. Templates for your routines, and prompts for the days the page stays blank.
At home on every device
A full Mac app with multiple windows, menus and keyboard shortcuts. Designed for iPad, and for iPhone Duo both folded and unfolded. Shortcuts actions, widgets and Spotlight search on top.
Switching? Bring your journal

What people are saying
App Store
App of the Day
“I longed for an app that didn’t store my data on some random server somewhere… I’ve migrated over 10 years of journaling into Everlog and I’m not looking back.”
“It has become the first thing I open when I’m feeling something really big. I open up a big empty window and I just write everything out I’m feeling and I always feel like a new person at the end of that writing.”
“This app has replaced Day One for me… Excellent import from Day One nothing was missed (including images, locations etc.)… affordable either by subscription or single lifetime purchase.”
