• Read the included library without an internet connection

Make time for reflection:

• Keep personal reflections in Journal
• Browse entries with the Baháʼí calendar and search your writing
• Add notes beside prayers and passages, then find them in Notes under Compilations

What’s new

Browse your journal with a continuous day selector. Swipe through entries under a fixed center marker, with gentle haptics and snapping. Months change automatically with animated transitions, while neighboring days fade to help you keep your place. Tap a day or month to jump, or double-tap the month to return to today. Your edits are saved before switching days. Older journal entries and text notes are now imported when updating from earlier versions.
