About this app

Day One is the journaling app that reinvented journaling. Completely private, cross-platform, and designed to never fill up, it’s designed to let you capture your life as you live it. Use Day One as a daily diary, note taking app, travel log, or gratitude journal.

“Day One creates something so rare it feels almost sacred: A completely private digital space.” – New York Times

“Day One makes keeping a journal delightfully easy.” – Wired

“It’s perfect! Does what it says on the box. I was able to import my stuff from another (pricey) journal so that I didn’t lose those entries. It’s easy to add multiple entries to a day and to keep pictures. And it’s lockable, keeping private thoughts protected. I will happily use Day One for years.” – Day One user

I must say I am rarely impressed with application developers, and their bug finding practices/speed, but this has just blown me out of the water! Put in a complaint yesterday about syncing issues with android and mac, and the today a whole new android version (3.1.2) is released with the bug removed…what the hell! Amazing Works perfectly now, Will definitely be hanging on to my subscription, beats the others I have played with hands down. and is instant and smooth with sync. Great App

Unfortunately, the app keeps crashing. A definite shame as this is an An absolutely fantastic journaling experience on iOS, hope the crashes get fixed on Android. I have contacted support, have a ticket with Engineering, but so far, still no fix. Seems to effect end-to-end encrypted journals, standard encryption seems to be working fine.

Hi Steve, sorry to hear you've been experiencing crash issues. Did the app crash immediately after it was opened, or did it crash after specific actions were performed? Please email us at support@dayoneapp.com from your Day One account email and let us know. Thank you!

[UPDATED]: Changed rating from 3 to 5 now that I can edit entries from other app versions on Android! I do love using the app on my iOS devices. However, the fact that the Android app cannot edit entries from iOS versions is not only a bad experience but also a huge deterrent to the habit of journaling. It is good to know there are folks actively working on this.

This is something the team is aware of and working on. It would be due to the different editors that are used between platforms. The team is working hard on Android's editor to allow editing between platforms in the future. If you have any other questions feel free to contact us at support@dayoneapp.com.
