📔 Journal

The Journal is a place to write about your day. There's one entry per day, a question to get you started, and an easy way to add a quick note later.

Find it in the menu under 📱 My Dynamic → 📔 Journal. In baby mode it's called Baby Book.

For littles

Tell your journal how today went. You can type, or tap the mic and talk. If you don't want your caregiver to read one, you can hide it.

Write today's entry​

  1. Open the Journal. The write box is right at the top, with Today's question and the other prompts.
  2. Pick how you feel, from Very happy 😄 to Very sad 😢.
  3. Write whatever you want, or tap the 🎤 mic to talk instead of typing.
  4. Tap Save today's entry.

If you'd rather answer prompts one by one, tap Do my journal entry for a guided flow with today's prompt. Tap Another idea or Show me a different idea for a different prompt.

Add to it later​

Already wrote today? Tap Add to today's entry or Add a little note to today to add one line without redoing the whole entry. You can delete a note later.

Write about another day​

Tap Write about a different day, pick the date, and write. This is handy for catching up on a day you missed.

Look back​

Tap Look back to find:

  • Everything I've written: every entry, with Search your journal. Search looks through your answers, your little notes, and your caregiver's replies.
  • On this day: what you wrote the same day a month, three months, and a year ago.
  • Story of Us: your whole time here, told back to you.
  • What lifts your mood (littles): how your feelings line up with routines, rewards, and punishments.

Make it do more​

  • See your patterns opens Little Insights.
  • Remind me to write sets up a reminder with Automations.
  • Talk about this opens the Direct Line chat with your caregiver or little.

Who can read your journal​

If you're a little with a linked caregiver, your caregiver can read your entries and write back. To hide one:

  1. Open the entry under Everything I've written.
  2. Tap 🔒 Make private (hide from caregiver).

Tap 🔓 Make visible to caregiver to share it again. A private entry stays yours either way. Private entries are also never read by the AI caregiver.

If you're a caregiver, your own journal is private. Only you can read it. Under Look back, Read their journal shows the entries your little has shared. Tap one to write a loving reply. Your little sees it marked Your caregiver left this.

When a caregiver sets a question for their little, it shows on the little's journal as Your caregiver asked.

If it won't load​

If you see "We couldn't load your journal," your entries are still there. Your device just couldn't reach them. Check your connection and try again.
