Just wanted to post a quick comment - I really appreciate your simple and elegant journalling solution. I think I want to implement something similar. Thanks!
Hey - just to let you know that I took a look and liked the way you built it! Not really a product for me as I don't keep any diary but maybe others will find it useful! Well done & good luck!
I've been keeping a google doc pinned tab to keep track of everything (todo, what to read, etc.) so happy to give journal a shot. Email in my profile thanks
I've never successfully established a journaling habit. I'm giving it another try with your app. Maybe if I don't have the motivation to write I'll at least take a photo to keep the habit going. I really like the discreet mood. Having the Gap Fund is impressive. Well done. Good luck!
I've been working on Simple Journal for some time now. The concept came into being after I noticed more and more people picking up journaling. I became interested in the topic and started to research ways to make it easier to turn journaling into a habit. I'm an avid Duolingo user and I've always been very impressed with how they handle multi day streaks, and in particular, how well they worked for me in making a habit out of using Duolingo. So I added streaks to journaling and that concept turned into Simple Journal. After that I wanted a more granular control over the things I was tracking in my journaling, so I added a way to track and chart various types of activities.
I hope you like it, do let me know what you think.
Nice post! I've always kept a journal since using laboratory notebooks (and learning how to organise them) at uni. Over the decades I've settled on taking a notebook and running a bullet journal from the front page, in, and an "autofocus" to-do list from the back page, in. This year I'm hosting it inside a day-to-a-page Moleskine diary because I never really spill over one page for my daily log and I was going through three journals a year which incurs three-times setup overhead.
