I am tempted to update to test out the journal app.
Wonder if it will be able to import journal entries from other apps.
Apple has the potential of creating a fuller detailing experience, but it probably won't be there just yet.

I’ve been waiting for the Journal app to be released since they announced it. I’ve never used any third-party apps because they’re either ad-filled, or I don’t trust them with my data.
I also don't like ad-filled apps, that is why I normally buy my apps.
I have used Diaro before and it was quite good. It could save your entries in iCloud or Dropbox and have apps for almost all platforms. I have also heard good things about Day One.
I played with the app for a bit and I think it is good enough to start with. If you don't have the baggage of trying to import from a different app I think it should be good to go from the get go.
I would have liked it if it could have shown my memories on a map and I could go look at my entries at a specific place etc. It currently only filters on if things are there. Not on the details of what is inside of those things.
But I think it is a good place to start from regardless. And the ability to share things directly with the journal is quite nice. I have already done it with some of the memories generated with the photos app, so I would assume anything can be shared with it.
I am interested in trying out the journal app. I’ve used several different apps in the past that are mental health focused, such as Daylio and Finch. Although the journal app doesn’t replace them, it may work better just for dumping my thoughts.
I just updated to the Beta and tried it out for about 30 minutes.
The reflections is quite nice because of it's probing nature. And if you just want to dump in your thoughts it will be good as well and you can add the auto generated memories from photos in there if you want.
But I suspect that the other two apps that you used will have much more functionality than this currently. I used Diaro and it has many features in there that I would still want the journal app to add.
Nothing for StandBy? I was so looking forward to it when iOS 17 was released but if feels unfinished. The clocks don’t have much customization, the night clock is too bright (I have to cheat with the reduce white point).
wonder when side loading is coming.
It’s already here.
I've still been using Altstore which requires verification every week. Is there a more official one? Running dev beta rn
I’d love to try the Journal app, but I have a lot of data in a different journal app. Unless they offer a way to import, I’m likely sticking to my current one (Day One).
Definite wins for me:
Is snooze still the obnoxious 9 minutes?
Can’t you change it?
no 😭
Time to wake up!
