Questions, answered

How much does Journal cost?

Journal is $4.99 a month or $49.99 a year. The Plan page is free to use. Both subscriptions include every feature, and you can cancel anytime from your App Store or Google Play subscriptions.

Is my journal private?

Yes. Your entries are stored on your phone, not on our servers. If you connect iCloud or another CalDAV calendar, the password is kept in your phone’s secure storage.

Which calendars does Journal work with?

Google and Outlook calendars you have added to your phone, plus iCloud and other CalDAV calendars you sign in to inside Journal. Sync works both ways.

Does it work on Android?

Yes. Journal is available for iPhone and Android, and iCloud calendars work on both.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Your days are stored on your phone and reminders are scheduled on the phone, so everything works without a connection. Calendars sync when you’re back online.

Can I export my journal?

Yes. Settings lets you export your whole journal at any time.
