Hmm. As I understood it the app is for mindfulness. It’s meant to actually just journal your thoughts and feelings throughout the day, nothing more.
The triggers, like workouts or recent activity are just a way to automatically get a prompt to journal about it. Say after a concert or maybe a hike up a mountain. If you allow journaling suggestions, that’s what you get.
When you customize it, you have the option to enable Activity, where it will suggest you journal after some kind of physical activity.
If you know all this and I misread something and the feature isn’t working… beta 1 🙂
I am tempted to update to test out the journal app.
Wonder if it will be able to import journal entries from other apps.
Apple has the potential of creating a fuller detailing experience, but it probably won’t be there just yet.
It’s super minimal so not sure what took Apple this long let alone why they can’t ship it for iPad and macOS at the same time they release it.
TBH I was expecting a little more given the wait. This seems clearly extremely low priority for them.
Also judging by the look and feel, there won’t be importing from other journal apps.
Yes, it is very minimal.
I can’t get my workouts in there yet. It is all just put on a stack that can be sorted by time. And you can filter if it has some type of attachments.
You also can’t have different journals for different things as far as I can see.
And yes, this should be an easy port to macOS and iPadOS. Would be nice if you can put in hand written notes.
