## Description

Drafts now save as you write, deleted entries wait 30 days, and you can export your whole journal as Markdown or JSON, free.

Your thoughts have a way of disappearing. Trace brings them back.

Trace is a home for passing thoughts: ideas, notes, reflections, lists, and the things you don't want to lose. Catch one in three seconds, then get on with your day.

Why people use Trace:
- Open and write. No setup, no accounts, no folders to choose first
- Bullet and numbered lists that continue as you type
- Search everything you've ever written, including by date
- Your draft is saved as you write, so a call or a crash can't take it
- Deleted something by mistake? It waits 30 days
- Export everything as Markdown or JSON, anytime, free
- Light and Dark, free for everyone

Built for everyday capture:
- The idea you had in the shower
- Something someone said that stuck
- A list you need in ten minutes
- The end of a long day

Make Trace yours with Pro:
- Cream, Sage, Midnight, and Cocoa themes
- Four matching alternate app icons
- App Lock with Face ID, Touch ID, or device passcode
- Automatic iCloud sync on supported Apple devices

Trace Pro is a one-time purchase. Light and Dark themes and journal export stay free for everyone.

No account required. Trace runs no servers of its own. Your writing lives on your device, and Pro syncs it through your own iCloud.
