![]() ![]() I like the changes in Day One 1.10 and I keep recommending the app as, by far, the best journaling experience on iOS and OS X. Email exports can contain attachments up to 25 MB in size, but the app also comes with an “Open In…” menu to send PDFs to other apps like Dropbox and Google Drive (if installed). Exports are listed in the same menu and they can be deleted with a single swipe. MYTHOUGHTS FOR MAC 1.5 PDFIn my case, I filtered entries tagged with my dog’s name and emailed a beautifully formatted PDF full of photos to my friends. Available in the Settings, you can export all entries at once, or filter specific ones by date range or tag. PDF export is interesting because it enables Day One users to get their journal entries out of the app and save them in a format that is more future-proof than Bloom’s own file format. MYTHOUGHTS FOR MAC 1.5 UPDATEThe update also contains fixes and other improvements such as a new reminder sound, historical weather data increased from 3 to 30 days (useful when adding old entries), and a new font option. Version 1.10, released today, brings a new option to export your entries as PDF. In November 2012, the app was updated with tags, search, and support for MultiMarkdown footnotes. But I can’t tell you how you should use it. I can tell you what Day One does, and I can write about the things I do with it. From my review:ĭay One stands out because it’s not a tool, it’s a personal experience. MYTHOUGHTS FOR MAC 1.5 SOFTWAREThe app was chosen as Mac app of the year by Apple, and for good reason: both on Macs and iOS devices, Day One is a finely crafted piece of software based on an even more powerful idea – archiving your memories. The fact that in this very moment I can take these old photos, and send them to my parents with a comment that says, “365 days ago…how things change”.ĭay One is my favorite journaling app for iOS and OS X. The fact that somebody out there has made an app that lets me cringe at my mistakes and cherish old moments. Sometimes, on days like today, I like to appreciate the simple things of my job. But does it have a URL scheme? We often lose track of the magic of software. Common technology terms for yet another app. ![]() It’s diary app! Of course it lets you browse old entries in a calendar, and of course it’s got search, and of course it accepts photos as attachments, and, okay, the fact that you can see old weather information is neat – but yes, it’s because of the GPS. It sounds so trivial because we’re used to it. It is, indeed, far more powerful than memory alone. A combination of old thoughts and visual memories that I still have, in some form, in my brain, but that here, in this app – right now – I can hold and directly look at. In the app’s Calendar view, I changed the year to “2012” and, sure enough, the “August 1, 2012” entry was there, showing photos of my hospital room my girlfriend sending a selfie from home and a note that I wrote about the doctors being “nice”. Today, when I remembered that exactly one year ago I was hospitalized for 22 days for a series of treatments to save my life, I tweeted about it. ![]()
