## Description

A private journal. Write, tag, add a mood, search everything, and lock it with a passcode. No account, no sync, and nothing to pay for.

Write privately. Everything stays on your device.

Local Journal is a simple place to capture your thoughts, memories, ideas, and daily life. There are no accounts to create, no ads, and no cloud services managing your journal.

Open the app, write, and close it. Your journal stays yours.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

• Write journal entries with a date and optional title

• Automatically save your writing as you type

• Organize entries by month with your newest entries first

• Add mood markers and custom tags to every entry

• Search across titles, entries, and tags

• Filter entries by mood or tag

• Browse your journal on a calendar

• See how many days you've written each month

• Delete entries with an undo option

• Choose Light Mode, Dark Mode, or follow your system appearance

OPTIONAL PASSCODE LOCK

Protect your journal with an optional passcode.

When enabled, your entries are stored encrypted. Your passcode is never stored or sent anywhere, and because there is no server, it cannot be recovered if forgotten.

You can turn the lock off again with your passcode.

EXPORT YOUR JOURNAL

Take your journal with you whenever you want.

Export your entries as:

• PDF

• Markdown

• JSON backup

Import a previous backup at any time. Before anything changes, you'll see exactly what will happen and can choose whether to merge your entries or replace your existing journal.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Your thoughts belong to you.

• No account required

• No signup

• No cloud storage

• No tracking

• No analytics

• No advertising

The app never uploads your journal.

If you choose to export it, you decide where it goes.

WORKS COMPLETELY OFFLINE

Everything Local Journal needs is included in the app.

Writing, searching, organizing, browsing your calendar, and exporting your journal all work without an internet connection, even in Airplane Mode.

PART OF THE LOCAL FAMILY

Local Journal is part of the Local family of apps by Eden Apps.

Every Local app is built around one simple principle:

Your information belongs to you. Everything runs on your device.
