Day One vs Journal

Day One

Day One is a powerful and beautiful app for journaling. You can add photos, videos, drawings, and audio recordings to bring your journal entries to life. To keep your private thoughts private, you can protect your journal with Touch ID or Face ID.

Apple Journal

Journal is a new app that helps iPhone users reflect and practice gratitude through journaling, which has been shown to improve wellbeing. Using on-device machine learning, personalized suggestions can be provided to help inspire a user’s journal entry. Suggestions are intelligently curated from recent activity, including photos, people, places, workouts, and more, making it easy to start a journal entry, and scheduled notifications can help build a journaling habit.
