Keep your joys
Write a quick note, add tags or attach a photo, video or voice recording. Joyful entries return later as gentle memories.
A private journal for iPhone
Joys & Woes
Keep what felt good. Let go of what did not.
Capture joys you want to remember and woes you are ready to release. No account, no ads and no pressure to maintain a streak.
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 is stored locally first and syncs through your private iCloud database when available. There is no app account, developer server, advertising or analytics SDK.
Yours to take with you
Private iCloud sync keeps supported iPhones using the same Apple Account up to date. You can also export JSON and a ZIP archive of your media.
Inside the app
Simple enough for every day
Privacy
Your journal is personal. It stays that way.
Entries and attachments are stored locally first and may sync through your private iCloud database. The developer cannot read that database and receives no journal, usage analytics or advertising identifiers.
