Yesterdays: Memory Journal

No visibility of whole month or tear calendar, whats the point of writing if you cannot see own entries on a big calendar with special markings. Error saving entries. REALLY Bad user experience overall.

I like this app! I also have Apple’s Journal app, which I have used several times. But I like three things about Yesterdays— 1) it’s simple (type stuff, keep photos, add tags or not). No account except Apple ID, no credit card, etc; 2) it’s private (think Facebook without Facebook); 3) it’s searchable (if you put in tags). Which is one feature Apple’s Journal doesn’t have. I also use this developer’s app, Defer, which is like a quick note-taking space for things I can then sort to different apps later. This guy is on to something and I like his approach. I did purchase the yearly sub for Yesterdays, but not for Defer yet.

If you’re reminiscing about your day, kids, dog, whatever, just take 5 minutes to Yesterday it. The app does a great job the next time you open it reminding you of the little joys in your life.

only ten memories free

Love the simple interface and great design. Easy to store and then rediscover notes

As a dad I’ve used several apps to write down things my kids said - Evernote, Ulysses, Notion, Obsidian. But this is actually simple enough that it keeps me going, and the entries aren’t mixed in with all my other writing. Importing/exporting is clutch.

I love the intention of this app! Such a great way to slow down and remember the important moments in life we might otherwise forget if not written down. I love the ability to tag people and add photos. I also really appreciate the privacy aspect of this app, makes me feel comfortable writing stories about my kids that I wouldn’t do on other apps. Such a great user experience, so simple to interact with, very smart design!

Absolutely love the simplicity and ease of use. Exactly what I was hoping to find when it comes to capturing the everyday memories, moments and quotes. As a dad with 4 kids—there’s always something to capture. Love it!
