The Today screen: today's sentence above the sentences written on this date one and two years ago.

One sentence. That is the whole app.

Not the free tier, not the starter plan. Two hundred and eighty characters, once a day, and then you are done for eleven seconds of work. You cannot fall behind on a sentence.

No streaks. No shame.

What most apps do

A flame counter, a broken chain, a red badge, and a push notification implying you have let yourself down. It works for about nine days, and then the app becomes a thing you avoid opening.

What this does

Unbroken runs are quietly numbered as chapters. Miss a week and a new chapter simply begins, the way books do. Missed days are drawn as unprinted paper, not as failure. Nobody grieves starting a chapter.

Your words stay on your phone

No network

The app does not request the internet permission. It cannot send your sentences anywhere, because Android will not let it open a connection at all. You can check that on the Play listing.

No account

There is no sign-up, no email, no cloud, and no analytics. Nothing about you is collected, because there is nowhere for it to go.

Yours to take

Export the whole book as plain text, CSV or JSON whenever you want, and import it back. Any sentence can be saved as a typeset card. A journal that holds your memories hostage is a horror story.

No subscription

The app is free and complete. A product about permanence should not bill you monthly.

This app gets good in a year. We are patient.
