Three lines. Thirty seconds. A daily gratitude diary that stays on your phone
Three lines. Thirty seconds. That's all it takes.
3-Line Gratitude is a deliberately small gratitude journal — three lines a day, written in under a minute, kept private on your device forever.
No accounts. No cloud sync that holds your words hostage. No streak shame. Just three small things, every day.
WHY THREE LINES
Most journaling apps fail because they ask for too much. Five-minute journals turn into ten-minute journals turn into a blank page you avoid. Three lines is a commitment too small for your brain to skip — and over weeks, those tiny entries add up to a real practice.
WHAT YOU GET
• Today screen — a clean page with three lines waiting. Write, save, done.
• Daily reminder — pick the time once during onboarding and it arrives at that local time. Soft tone. Editable in Settings.
• Streak counter — shown small under the date, never celebratory. Includes one grace day per week so a single missed night doesn't reset everything.
• Calendar — see your full history at a glance. Tap a day you wrote to read it, or tap Edit to fix it. Days you skipped stay empty, so there's no backfilling.
• Two themes — Quiet (cream, bedtime-safe) and Sunrise (warm orange).
• English, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese
YOUR WORDS STAY YOURS
Entries are stored locally on your device. They are not uploaded, not shared, not analyzed. The app is supported by occasional ads on the Calendar and Settings screens — never on the writing screen — and includes a 7-day quiet period for new users.
WHO IT'S FOR
People who have downloaded a journaling app, abandoned it, and downloaded another. People who want a daily gratitude practice but don't want a productivity tool. People who want their phone to leave them alone after they've written what matters.
Three lines. Thirty seconds. That's all.
