Pick a topic and a quote opens your journal entry. A quiet, ad-free diary.
Dalbam ("moonlit night" in Korean) is a quiet diary that makes it easy to write even a single line a day.
■ A quote opens your entry
Happiness, gratitude, love, comfort, courage, loneliness, worry, calm… choose the topic that fits today and a quote on that theme is placed at the top of your entry. Don't like it? Tap "another quote," then keep writing your own thoughts below it. The hardest part, the first line, gets lighter.
■ A calm space to pause
On gentle landscapes you can mix sounds such as rain, waves, a stream or a crackling fireplace. A breathing guide and a bell help you settle before or after you write. Sounds are downloaded to your device the first time you play them, then work offline.
■ Make your record richer
• Log how you feel today in one tap
• Add photos to an entry
• Search past entries
• See your writing streak
• Look back at this day one year ago
• Korean, English, Japanese, Spanish and French
■ Word meanings (when online)
Tap an English word in a quote to see its meaning, an example and hear its pronunciation. Only the single word you tap is sent to Wiktionary; your journal text is never sent.
■ Your diary stays on your device
• No sign-up, no login.
• Entries, photos and mood records are stored only on your device and never sent to a server.
• No ads and no tracking.
• Export and import a backup file in settings to move to a new phone. Keep the backup outside your device too; deleting the app can erase your entries.
