StoryPad

StoryPad is a privacy-first journal and diary app for people who want their entries kept on their own device. It organizes writing on a single continuous timeline instead of folders or tabs, and locks entries behind a PIN, Face ID, or fingerprint.

Writing is fully customizable with bold text, lists, checkboxes, colors, and 1300+ Google Fonts. You can add multiple photos per page, track moods across 45+ emotions with history and calendar views, organize entries with tags and stars, revisit throwback memories from years past, and export as text, markdown, or full backups with attachments. Private Google Drive sync and offline local export keep your data in your hands.

Dedicated tablet layouts make writing and reading more immersive on iPad and Android tablets. StoryPad is available in 20+ languages, stores data locally in ObjectBox, and is licensed under GPLv3. A one-time StoryPad Pro purchase adds extras like custom backgrounds, templates, voice journaling, and a period calendar.
