About Spring Journal
Spring is a quiet place where thoughts come up like water from a mountain spring, emerging from somewhere deep and mysterious. Open the app and start typing: no titles, folders, categories, or buttons in the way. Each paragraph is a single idea; related paragraphs flow together as Streams. Pinch to group, drag to separate, and let your mind wander without structure getting in the way. Why Spring? • Designed for stream of consciousness writing – write first, structure later • Low friction – big, readable font make your thoughts immediate • Paragraph-first – ideas and thoughts, not files, are the atomic unit • Always ready – capture fleeting thoughts before they vanish • iCloud connected – notes are stored in iCloud so they're automatically backed up Gestures • Semantic spacing – pinch unrelated thoughts apart or related thoughts together • Hold to rearrange – lift a paragraph and drop it anywhere in the flow • Swipe left to "reply" – easily add a new thought directly after an existing one • Swipe right to delete – flick a thought away when it no longer serves you • Swipe from left edge – close your current note • Swipe from right edge – create a new note Spring is the place you dump what’s in your head before you decide what to do with it. When Review Mode arrives, your Streams will automatically reveal patterns you didn’t know were there.
