I noticed my days were fading. What happened last week? Last month? At some point, everything blurs together.

I tried journal apps. Every time the same: after a few weeks, I stopped. Not because I didn't want to write. Because the apps wanted too much.

Activity logs. Mood tracking. Daily prompts. I didn't need more features. I needed fewer reasons not to write.

So I built everything around one question:

What do you want to remember about today?

Simple isn't less. Simple is enough.
