A diary should feel like coming home.
Kindiary is a quiet place to write, reflect and remember. No ads, no account, no one looking over your shoulder. Every word stays on your phone, encrypted behind a passcode only you know.
Then one morning it hands you back a line you wrote a year ago, and you remember why you started.
ONE PAGE A DAY
• Build today's story in a few taps: your mood, what was in the day, the weather. It all lands on today's page.
• Twelve illustrated pages to start from: gratitude, a dream, a worry, a letter to your future self. Pick one and it writes itself onto today.
• A gentle prompt whenever the page feels blank, and guided series that walk you through a week.
• Type or talk. Photos, sketches and stickers. Mood, weather and tags in a tap.
IT GIVES SOMETHING BACK
• Your own words, returned: a line from last night or a year ago today, waiting on the cover when you open the app.
• Talk to your diary. Ask it anything about your own life and it answers from your pages, on your phone. Three questions a month free, unlimited with Pro.
• Reflect: what your pages say about your month, and five small practices for the week. No score, no streak.
• Track one thing, sleep, water, steps or your own, with one tap on the page you were writing anyway (Pro).
A DIARY THAT LOOKS LIKE YOURS
• 21 hand-crafted themes, from candle-lit Vellum to crisp Foolscap. Five are free, forever.
• 20 page backgrounds or your own photo, any accent colour, and a fresh theme every morning if you fancy it (Pro).
• Beautiful reading fonts, including Lora and EB Garamond.
• A home screen widget with today's question and, if you like, a line from your past.
LOOK BACK KINDLY
• On this day: what you wrote a year ago.
• Chapters: a month gathered into a keepsake book with your photos, saved to your phone or shared as PDF.
• Year in Review: your whole year as a booklet (Pro).
• Search by word, mood, tag or date. Quiet reading mode for when you just want to revisit.
Kindiary never scores you and never breaks a streak over your head. The weeks people stop writing are usually the hardest ones. You are always welcome back.
YOURS. LOCKED. KEPT.
• AES-256 encryption on your device, with PBKDF2 key derivation.
• A 12-word recovery phrase, so you never lose your words.
• Encrypted Google Drive backup that not even we can read (Pro).
• Time-locked letters your future self opens (Pro).
• Export any time as PDF, Markdown or JSON.
The only thing that ever leaves your phone is an encrypted backup, and only if you ask for one.

A NOTE FROM US
Kindiary is made by a very small team who wanted a diary we would actually trust. We do not sell your data. We cannot. We have never seen it.
Kindiary is for personal reflection, not therapy or medical advice. If you need to talk to someone, links to Samaritans, the 988 Lifeline and Lifeline are one tap away.
Private, encrypted diary. It hands your own words back. No ads, no account.
