I’ve been thinking about day one for awhile. And I’ve also reviewed at least a dozen videos. This is by far the best, most informative, most easily understood and completely objective. I discovered you by chance and I’m so glad I did. Thank you as you have allowed me to make the decision to go ahead and inspired me with the ideas you have provided. Have a great 2022.!
@@WesleyAnna I have a question for you: I'd like to start using this as a record to give to my kid in 10 years or so. What guarantees that I won't lose all of the content I made? Or, really - lose all of the audio recordings?
I've been using Day One since November 2014, and it absolutely changed my life. I've been spending many years importing older journaling from pre-Day One, so I can build a thorough record of my life. Thank you for sharing!
What I like about this journaling app right away is like every time you write something on that particular day it shows you what you wrote a year ago and so forth that is freaking cool because it always reminds you what you wrote a year ago and you can always reflect in the moment
Totally agree, my friend. And sometimes, there are little gems in a day that get forgotten over a year. Being able to revisit it makes life seem so rich. Are you still using day one, or switched to something else?
I started to use this app as a way to cope with a though breakup I had back in 2021. I thought it was going to be something temporary, 2 years later and I am still using this app constantly and now I can’t imagine my life without it. It’s fascinating to go back and read entries from a year ago and how I was feeling at the time.
Thank you so much for inspiring to start recording my life now! Great content. No BS. Straight to the point. Love the mentions about IFTTT - just checked the possibilities out there. Documenting your life in such a way seems so fun. Thanks again!
Good video 👍🏻 I’ve had Day One for almost as long as you, since 2013 when I bought my first iPhone, and I’ve been using it almost every day, also ☺️ You have journaled your 20s and I, my mid 60s into my 70s 😄 I’m still using the Classic/Legacy version but one of these days I need to finish syncing everything over to the current version so I can make use of being able to have multiple journals. I hadn’t thought of having multiple journals but you gave me the idea of doing so rather than having separate entries for different parts of my day so thank you 💕💕💕
This was so helpful! I signed up for Journey yesterday because a lot of people were saying it's better than Day One, but it kept glitching when I was typing and it messed up my computer. After watching this video I feel like Day One is so similar and hearing that you've used it for so long is definitely converting me over to it
it’s crazy because i saw this video in my recommended a while ago and downloaded the app, told myself i probably wouldn’t use it anyway, and then deleted it. i’m now on day 5 of journaling in my notes app to replace social media and this video was so informative! definitely redownloaded it and planning to use it every single day!
I just recently heard about Day One and this is the first video I’ve come across when searching for more information. This was sooo helpful and informative and I’m sold! I love journaling but my perfectionism keeps me from reaching my full journaling potential, I think (one of the biggest things is that my handwriting isn’t consistent and I hate that). Literally every single feature about this app sounds amazing and I can’t wait to dive in. I also think keeping a journal digitally will take me back to the blogging/livejournal days lol
Yess as much as I love analog, it can be so overwhelming if you have perfectionist tendencies. Easier to just go with the flow when there's a backspace button :,)
Thanks for sharing your experience and giving us all the information and benefits of it. Looking at you while thinking about that app is hard because you are pretty! 😁
Helpful post. But I get a certain satisfaction from writing with pen and paper from typing on a phone or keyboard. Is there a way to writing in day one with a stylist pen?
The app doesn't have that good of a UI on Android, so for Android I recommend Diarium or Diaro. No, they're not new elements (I actually thought that for a second when I came across the names on a forum). Both have a pretty good UI, but you'll most likely gravitate towards one more than the other.
Thanks!!! I will definitely use this app in 2022 do you use any prompts or templates for your journals? or are they "freestyle" to just stop and start writing about the day? was wanting to do my gratitude journal on One Day
You have the option to freestyle (which I do) or respond to the daily prompt given. I did my gratitude journal in day one for a while and it was lovely!
Nice video. Based on your years of experience, what are 3-4 most important sections or journal categories you would suggest anyone to create them in Day One? like about today, self discovery, gratitude etc.
Hi! I loved this review. Very well made video - thank you so much! I wanted to ask you what your thoughts were regarding handwritten journaling. Some people say it’s better to journal on paper, or at least on a iPad with an Apple Pencil. Sometimes when I journal I do quite like handwriting as it feels more persona. On the other hand, it’s way slower and more messy. I would love to hear your thoughts on this and whether you ever journal in hand written format. Thank you so much! I’ve subscribed to your channel 😊
I use digital journaling for cataloguing events (what I did today) and hand journaling for expressing emotions, free writing, brain storming. Definitely benefits to both but I find that keeping my logs digital helps me organize and search them in the future!
Hi! This video just made me download Day One and I guess I’ll be paying for premium. Just a quick question, does it automatically capture metadata if I opened the app and journaled while being offline?
Thank you so much I hope you your family and your friends are having a wonderful fantastic awesome bless safe beautiful lovely day wherever you all are you all enjoy the rest of your day God bless you all 🙏📖😊🥰❤️
How could he app record my number of steps each day - I don't carry my phone on my body all day. That puts me off as it wouldn't be an accurate record. Hopefully can turn that off.
I think the Apple ecosystem has been their focus unfortunately. The Android experience has been pretty dismal too, I hear. Did you end up finding a journalling solution?
Watching this gave me FOMO. I am an Android user, and sadly, the reviews for Day One on Android are not that positive. I started using Daylio 64 days ago and am enjoying it, but all those extra bells and whistles do look very very nice.... sigh...
@@WesleyAnna The future did not take that long - Android now has the option to post photos, video and audio. I took the plunge and am really enjoying it. Thank you again for this video.

I just found Day One yesterday-have wanted to journal for a long time and am excited about this. Thanks for your review!
Very inspiring. I've had Day One for a long time, and I start and stop with it, but I think I will really work on the streak this year.
Yes! Cheering for you!

I haven't tried Journey so can't speak to any differences, but like you say, Day one has certainly served me well haha

Wishing you a wonderful journaling experience
Absolutely fantastic review. Loved it and hope all is good.
Great review! You are good at this!
Such a great app! Been using it on and off since 2013 and love the ability to be able to record a voice diary if you are strapped for time.
I need to start doing more voice notes! That would be lovely to listen to in the future.
@@WesleyAnna hey what's they app called I can't find they name in they description

I have been confused on using which app for journaling, but this video helped me to decide. Thank you for the crisp detailed review 👌🏻
I spent time testing a few apps but none of them were that "great", I'll be testing this one, thanks for all the info!
I’ve watched a lot of vidéos… yours ?? Wow. Just… thank you !!
I have used this for sometime. I could not live without it. X
Thanks for the in-depth review. My therapist mentioned that I should start a journal. Perhaps I'll give this a shot. Cheers.
Thanks for uploading this video. I’ve been looking into digital journaling
Thanks for sharing your experience and giving us all the information and benefits of it. Looking at you while thinking about that app is hard because you are pretty! 😁
I just discovered this app, life is moving so fast, i think this will be helpful
Thank you for the review, much appreciated 👍
Helpful post. But I get a certain satisfaction from writing with pen and paper from typing on a phone or keyboard. Is there a way to writing in day one with a stylist pen?
There's a stylus/drawing feature! You could also supplement your entries by adding in a quick photo of a handwritten entry for the day.
Yes, Apple Pen is supported (on the iPad) as well 👍
Thanks for the recommendations.Hope this will make more productive and happy in life
Greetings from Germany : )
I love your vide✨. Thanks for sharing bout this app.💖
This is a very helpful video presentation. Thank you so much 😊
This video really help for me,Thank U！
AWESOME, Thanks Wesley😋

Which one do you use, my friend?
I am totally going to try making 2024 my first journaling year...
Another nice app for journaling is presently and much simpler to use.
Thanks!!! I will definitely use this app in 2022
do you use any prompts or templates for your journals? or are they "freestyle" to just stop and start writing about the day? was wanting to do my gratitude journal on One Day
You have the option to freestyle (which I do) or respond to the daily prompt given. I did my gratitude journal in day one for a while and it was lovely!
thanks for this video
Do you print your journals using Day One’s printing service? Or do you keep everything digital?
Very useful. I’m guessing you use the premium version.
Yup! Super worth-it for me
Nice video. Based on your years of experience, what are 3-4 most important sections or journal categories you would suggest anyone to create them in Day One? like about today, self discovery, gratitude etc.
The main ones I use are my daily log (documenting the day), travel journal, and musings (random ideas and thoughts)

tnx 4 sharing... but thers a lot to be said for living in the present! i mean, i glad i dont rem' EVERYTHING :)
Yes!! I’m slowly learning this as well
Hi! This video just made me download Day One and I guess I’ll be paying for premium. Just a quick question, does it automatically capture metadata if I opened the app and journaled while being offline?
Great choice!! And I’m not sure, I’d imagine any info that’s available offline on your phone (steps etc) would be, but might be worth asking support!
hii does it have backup sync like when you have new phone does it start all over again?or your journal stayy??
sorry for my english
It syncs to the cloud so it’ll follow you forever! 😁 new phone is no problem
Thank you
You can now create multiple journals !
Does this app let you journal using Apple Pencil and shows your handwriting? Instead of changing it to text?
yes!
@@WesleyAnna Can you explain to me if there is a setting to change this? I can't figure it out
Does this work with the Apple Pencil? I really enjoy the writing aspect of journaling
Yes!
Thank you so much I hope you your family and your friends are having a wonderful fantastic awesome bless safe beautiful lovely day wherever you all are you all enjoy the rest of your day God bless you all 🙏📖😊🥰❤️
Can I use this app on my laptop?
do you have any alternatives to this app? i love sectioning, but the free version of day one only gives one book.
Apple just released a native journal app on their new iOS! Haven't used it yet but if you have an iphone it looks promising
Very inspiring ...Nice to Meet u 🤠 From Morocco 😉🇲🇦
can you compare day one vs journey app. thank you
I haven’t used journey yet!
Can I rewrite my journal which is on paper to that app?
Of course! Another option could be to upload photos of your entries, which will be less time consuming but you'll lose the searchability.
Will your entries stay on future devices if you switch phonr
Yes!
How could he app record my number of steps each day - I don't carry my phone on my body all day. That puts me off as it wouldn't be an accurate record. Hopefully can turn that off.
Does the free version have unlimited entry??????
yes!
Day One has been out all this time, yet they don't have an application for Windows yet?
Yeah it’s just a Mac app for now I guess :/
I think the Apple ecosystem has been their focus unfortunately. The Android experience has been pretty dismal too, I hear.
