A calmer kind of journal
Make room for both sides of the day.
Joys & Woes is built around a simple ritual: save the moments worth returning to, sit with the difficult ones for as long as you need, then burn them when it is time to move on.
Release your woes
Keep difficult moments in a separate pile. Add a lesson if one appears, then permanently burn the entry when you are ready.
Private by design
Your journal stays on this iPhone. There is no account, server, advertising or analytics SDK in the current version.
Yours to take with you
Export your journal as JSON or create a ZIP archive of your media. Optional Face ID lock and local reminders add control without a cloud account.
Inside the app
Simple enough for every day
Privacy
Your journal is personal. It stays that way.
The current version stores journal entries and attachments locally on your iPhone. The developer does not receive your journal, usage analytics or advertising identifiers.
