    ‘Journaling’ is for psychopaths.

      If you’re slow, just say that

    Journaling seems to be Apple’s mental health play imo

    Tweeting is basically open journaling

      Her and the Watch Mojo Lady should seriously consider voice acting.

    Journaling is good for your mental health, but turn off the phone and use a “boring” notebook.
    Practice gratitude, write down your tasks and goals for the next day, better in a to do list form with an assigned time of the day to do it.
    It will help.

      If that works for you great, but I will always journal on devices. As someone that moves a lot I try to not have so many books, and I like not having to carry books. Plus, I’ve had ppl go through my journal every time I’ve had a physical one, never again. There’s pros and cons to both

    Full disclosure: my Mindfulness practice has 27 non-negotiable mindfulness sessions (see Emily Fletcher’s Stress Less Accomplish More)
    I think Apple’s Journaling Platform is going to be like Final Cup Pro, Motion & Compressor: they are engaging in the space in ways that will elevate and improve access. Because Fitness+ is a thing in the aether, Nike Run Club & Nike Training Club has a partnership that rises the tide for connected fitness. Because of the iPhone & it’s camera Nikon, Canon Sony, FujiFilm and the L-Mount Alliance have potential new camera enthusiasts. The Same holds for Premier & Resolve.
    In Dustin Brown’s Meditation Episode 19 he makes the point that we always need to balance our awareness with focus. Like seeing the pine needles as well as the evergreens. 🌲 Using the Camera, it’s like seeing at 15mm versus 150mm. I think the Journaling platform will be a tool to make these connections. Like looking back at one’s Fitness+ dashboard for trends, regressions & progressions. There is also that Freeform app that utilized the drawing libraries waiting to be incorporated.

    Sounds like you are a candidate for Screen Time!

    I’d use this as a goal setting, accomplishment app and memory assistance.

    Also, don’t use work calendar for your private life. Imagine the awkward ping from HR about “May 10th CNN Interview!”. Never merge personal life with work apps. They can legally see anything they want on their servers.

    Great app for iPad + pencil. I do it on notes weekly and it helps me a lot. Turn off notifications and use it as you please.

    Great video. I love your delivery. I genuinely felt engaged with the material. It was well paced and well organized. That being said, I don’t like to type out my journaling. Part of the therapy of journaling for me is hand writing it. So, I use my iPad mini and GoodNotes. This app is a pass for me. You brought up some good points though. ❤

    Interesting idea if they find a way to incorporate it into the health and fitness features of iOS. Since health and fitness play a huge role in mental health, I’m sure an easy way to quickly journal would complete the circle. That could become helpful in the future if they find a way to add AI into the equation. For example, you could journal about having an horribly stressful day and AI could tap into the health/fitness features to see when your heart rate, oxygen level, etc. may have been highest, and tie all of it together to offer suggestions to reduce stress.

    I’ve been using Day One for many years now, it’s great and I don’t know if Apple should even try competing with it. But who knows, it could be amazing. Let’s see what they have to offer!

    Why not improve the notifications? They cause me the most grief on the phone.

    Sounds like a cool new feature. I say go for it if you can see using it, and don’t use it if you have better options or don’t prefer to journal.

    I’m really enjoying these bits of info tech. But… why is cnet refusing to properly title this series, feels super sketchy sketch! Is this not it’s own show? why not categorize, so it can be easily found?

    I hope theirs isn’t better than Daylio, because I’ve been using it for 348 days now. I so love and Im so hooked up to Daylio 😁

    I’m not so sure Apple is tuned in to us older, non west coast folks. For example their fitness app does not have snow shoveling or gardening, I t’s all yoga, hiit and running activities. I can’t imagine what their journaling app would “automatically” recognize. And you are right about the notifications. I use focus a lot just to tune out the annoying dings and the way too numerous junk calls. Wow, an OS that kills spam and phoney phone calls, now that would be something!

    Daylio journal app (since 2017). I can even send a copy from Android to iOS and vice versa.

    Lol all of these comments sound like they were paid compliments.

    I think the way to get people to warm up to this app, would be for it to suck in things from calendar, reminders and photos. Kind of a summary of things from that day. It would allow people to reflect easier to write an entry if they want, while keeping a to-done list for the day to refer back to. There might be current journaling apps that do this, I don’t use one, but getting people to open it for reference of a day in the past could be the way to get someone to maybe add comments to something that happened to a point they will want to comment at a certain point in the day. Also, it would be great if it removed all the things from your calendar after they have been moved over into this.
