About One Year: Daily Journal
A daily journal that grows into a garden. Write a few lines, snap a photo, record a voice note, or doodle your day. Every memory becomes a hand-drawn plant, and over the year your entries grow into a memory garden that's all yours. One Year makes journaling feel light, visual, and easy to keep up with. "This is the first time I've actually stuck with journaling every day." Why One Year • Truly remember each day of your year • Write as much or as little as you want • No pressure, no streaks • Built for consistency, not perfection Journal your way • Write: a few words or a whole page • Talk: record a voice note and your day is saved • Snap: take photos with digicam, film and black & white looks • Doodle: draw your own flower, then hear it play • Feel: color each flower to remember your mood Find any memory, just ask • Search your whole year by what happened, not just by date • Look up a feeling, a place, or a moment, like "happy summer days" • Results bring back your words, photos and voice notes together • Revisit any day, any moment Your garden • Every day you add a memory, a new plant grows • 365 hand-drawn plants and animals, one for each day (no AI) • Watch the year grow day by day, and scroll through the whole thing • Option to show plants only on days you wrote Share your day • Turn any day into a little story • Share it as a video or a still, with your words, drawing, photos and music Widgets & sync • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets • Quick camera access from the Lock Screen • Full garden view or simple progress dots • Works across iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Vision Pro, including your garden and today side by side on iPhone Duo • Everything stays in sync Your privacy comes first • Private by default • Stored on your device and encrypted in the cloud • No feeds • No ads Use One Year for free • Write about any day • Some of the widgets • The Doodle Clock in landscape mode • Multiple devices and syncing Get One Year Full Access • Add up to 5 photos to every day • Voice notes • The Doodle Camera for in-app photos • Daily mood tracking • All the widgets • Available as a subscription or lifetime purchase Every day counts.
