This isn't really a daily journaling app BUT the formatting is all really simple. A to do list is very simple to set up, you can make a board with each little block with a to do list assigned a day and can take and put on to dos as you like. I like it bc it's simple, intuitive, it's cute (I love beveled edges...) and I like the color options, I like the ease of making separate boards so some boards can just be dumping spaces or brainstorming or collections. I think there are templates you can just use. Hope this helps :) ! I pair it with bullet journaling (i recommend to ignore the super artistic way ppl tend to do it... it's meant to be simple!.. but if being artsy appeals ofc u can if it doesn't get in the way of doing it every day)

At a certain age, a good percentage of your self-worth comes from finishing stuff. I know we’re supposed to stop being hard on ourselves, but that’s sort of unrealistic, so might as well be efficient. Using iPhone Notes is ok for drafting stuff, but not as a to-do list. For paper lists I use the Action Method notebooks that Ghostly distributes. I have very very bad handwriting though so I've probably used 10 different apps over the years. I’ve found that I don’t really need features and folders. So this is dumb simple, and something about the action and sounds it makes it fun to add to. BUT, buyer beware, this app seems to be phased out by the developer, so play at your own risk.

i love this app because it feels like a more grown-up, more purposeful Notes app with better design.
it’s made for essays or poetry or whatever you want to throw in and it even lets you set a daily journaling time so that you can work some writing into each day. it allows you to access photos, contacts, locations, and events from your calendar while also providing prompts if you’re at a loss for what to say. i’ve found it to be really helpful when i need to get something off my mental, but don’t have my typical paper and pen.
hopefully it can be of some use to some of you ¨̮

I can't tell you how much I love this app. It's a note taking app, but everytime you enter it, it creates a blank document. it makes it seamless to get thoughts out asap!!! It's super basic and bare bones, but having a blank digital document ready as soon as you click the app seriously makes all the difference! They automatically save and sync to your computer if you have the app on your desktop too, so it's easy to sort through and find things.

For the Californians I can offer https://calscape.org/. If you just look up "[location] native plant society" that should lead you in the right direction. I just love learning about the land I'm on and having a neat list of plants adapted to and thriving in the area, maybe you do too.

I hold a grudge against this one because it was maybe twice that I affirmed that I was talking to someone and they meant "talking". This became a thing all of a sudden when I was in college and I got the memo very late. Hate it hate it hate it, it feels so glib and detached and too cool.

Get obsessive and pop quiz sing it to yourself doing the dishes. Rewind, sing, rewind, section chunking, lyric websites. You think it's easy to have so many karaoke songs ready at the drop of a hat and not be thrown off by the laggy lyric highlighting? To do the background vocals and the exact cadence and hum the instrumental breaks if you need to? No, it's WORK, it's TIME that can be spent doing something else but you choose to do this. And also it's fun. This is a sneak rec of The Chase by Tinashe from her 2021 album 333. Listened to it 40 times today. I have become one with the track.
