Every Journey Deserves a Film.
Story Mode is a cinematic journey recorder built for travellers and memory-keepers. Start a journey before you leave, capture moments along the way — photos, videos, audio, text notes, each pinned to a GPS location — then replay the entire trip as a beautifully animated film on a map. Watch a transport icon glide along your route as your captured moments appear one by one in perfect sequence.

How Are You, Really?
Most mood apps give you a slider from 1 to 10. Dear Diary gives you language. Choose from over 50 specific named moods grouped into 10 emotional families, set an intensity, add a note — and the app quietly reflects your patterns back to you. No internet needed. No data shared. Just you, understanding yourself a little better.
The 10 Emotional Families
50+ Named Moods
Not just "happy" or "sad" — choose from specific feelings like nostalgic, overwhelmed, or grateful, with an intensity level for each
A Gentle Reflection After Each Entry
After logging, the app quietly reflects back what may have shaped your mood and offers a gentle prompt — like a thoughtful friend, not a therapist
See Your Patterns Over Time
Look back at a week, two weeks, or a month — see which emotions show up most, when they tend to peak, and how you recover
Everything Stays on Your Phone
No internet needed. The app figures out your patterns on its own — nothing is sent to any server, ever

"Your diary belongs to you."
Your diary is the most private thing you own. Dear Diary was built around one rule: your words never leave your phone. No accounts. No cloud backup happening behind your back. No analytics watching what you write. When you set a password, the key is generated on your device and never transmitted anywhere — if you forget it, even we can't help you recover it. That is the point.
