"What do you want to remember about today?"
I noticed my days were fading. I tried journal apps. After a few weeks, I stopped. Not because I didn’t want to write. Because the apps wanted too much. Mood scores. Streak counters. Daily prompts.
I didn’t need more features. I needed fewer reasons not to write.
So I built SimpleDot around that one question. One sentence is enough. One word is enough. Write more if you want, but you never have to.

YOUR DAILY JOURNAL, SIMPLIFIED
SimpleDot is a minimalist journal and private diary. Write about your day. Add a photo, a rating, or a focus tag. Or just write a sentence and move on. Done in 30 seconds.
No prompts. No AI. Just one question.
LOOK BACK ANYTIME
Your journal grows with you. Browse entries in a calendar view, scroll through them one page at a time, or search for any memory. Filter by focus tag, rating, or photo.
A home screen widget brings your memories back without opening the app. See recent entries at a glance or revisit moments from the same day, years ago.
PRIVATE BY DEFAULT
SimpleDot is an offline journal. All entries stay on your device. No account required. No ad tracking.
No AI analysis, no suggestions, no interpretation of what you write. What you write stays as you wrote it. Your diary is yours alone.
MAKE IT YOURS
Choose from 3 color themes and switch between light, dark, or system mode. Set a daily reminder at your preferred time. There’s no guilt if you skip a day.
Export your journal anytime as ZIP backup or readable text. Import entries from another device.
