Does the new Journal app track visited places in the background à la DayOne/Arc/etc? I like to keep a private log of places I’ve been to. Something locked down and system-level would definitely make that a more secure undertaking.
hope you have the 1TB iPhoneI am going to just use this app to keep track of who pissed me off on social media that day
I'm afraid journaling on the native Apple app won't mean no subscription. DayOne now AppleOne ...Didn't DayOne go to a subscription? If so, I'm glad Apple is killing it off.. lol.
I’m sure there is or will be an export function. Can someone verify? I’m sure Apple knows it’s possible they may someday sunset the app, so I don’t think they would not give users that option. But I suppose they could not add the export function until they plan to discontinue the app, in which case then yeah it will glue those users to iPhones. But I’m inclined to think there will be an export function sooner rather than at the end, if not now then maybe when there is a Mac version.If you care about reading your journals far in the future, you’re going to have to buy a new iPhone every few years for the rest of your life.
I've been waiting for that feature on the mail app for years ...The Journal app is passcode and Face ID protected for privacy purposes
Definitely won’t bother with it then. I enjoy Day One. I never bought the subscription, I was grandfathered in because I paid for the premium version of the app upfront back before they went with the subscription model. Another thing I like about Day One is that they let you export your entire journal in JSON or PDF format, so I know I’ll always be able to back it up. Don’t really like the idea of having it tied to my iPhone at all.It is not on Mac
Probably you’re just missing the needed time for indexing until the app has some content for you.
Also it didn't come out yet. It is the first beta of this app. It will be weeks until iOS and the Journal app will be released. So let's talk again then.I'm amazed that this is it for this app.
There doesn't seem to be much complexity or features. I'm curious as to why it took so long for this to come out with such little functionality. And also is not showing up on my iPad.
No Tag capability, No Filters, No Check-in Capability, No Searching Capability
Probably in the future, but as of right now Apple hasn't said anything about it being on macOSIt is.
They’ve been working on it for over 6 months at this point. There probably won’t be much more functionality added before iOS 18.Also it didn't come out yet. It is the first beta of this app. It will be weeks until iOS and the Journal app will be released. So let's talk again then.
I won't be using it for journaling but more for "auto curation" of life. More like a life-logger than a journaling app. I can't type for crap on a mobile phone. In fact, I don't. I use iMessage / Google Voice/ Mail on Mac and iPhone is purely research and consumption. At least add the writing portion to an iPadOS app which appears to also not be coming.Wouldn't this make more sense being an iOS AND Mac app?
Why? Serious question. One would assume that like Photos, Journal data can be stored in the Cloud.If you care about reading your journals far in the future, you’re going to have to buy a new iPhone every few years for the rest of your life.
Regarding lifelogger, I like that term!I won't be using it for journaling but more for "auto curation" of life. More like a life-logger than a journaling app. I can't type for crap on a mobile phone.

I think it would be bad evidence in case of an antitrust lawsuit, Apple abusing their market position, if the import specifically understands the Day One export format (there is no standard journal format).
Well, Day One already exports JSON, does it not? Couldn't that be used by this to import content?The big question I and probably most journalers have been wondering is does it offer a native import from DayOne since that's by far where most everyone would be coming from other than new users who don't currently journal. Can someone comment if the iOS version, or more likely the macOS version if it exists has this support?
That’s likely intentional; I honestly don’t think Apple is trying to compete with the likes of Day One.It seems.... very basic.
I would love this for travel logging. Sounds perfect!Regarding lifelogger, I like that term!
I can envision using this during travel. We recently came back from Europe and it would be lovely to have a record of where we went, for how long, etc. That would be really awesome. I can see myself using it for that kind of purpose. It's also one reason that I love using my iPhone camera during travel instead of a regular camera. iPhone camera records the geolocation which to me is important during travel because in time, I'm going to forget where exactly something is and even what city it may have been taken in. I know, some standalone cameras include GPS but I think that's few and far between.
This is in betaHm didnt they say in the keynote that the app would show/recommened/create entries automatically based on photos/music you took? Everything is empty for me and I take kinda a lot of pictures and listen often tu music. Am I missing something here?
