The Log
Pay-once markdown journal — your files, no subscription
The Log is a private, on-device markdown journal for iPhone and iPad. Plain-text files, no subscription, no account, works with Obsidian. One-time purchase, yours forever.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built The Log after a bad Tuesday. Ten years of journal entries spread across three different apps — and one morning I opened one and couldn't read half of my own writing without upgrading to a subscription. Memories I'd written, on my own phone, behind a paywall.
So I made the journal I actually wanted:
• Pay once (24.99) — no subscription, ever. Future features included.
• Every entry is plain-text Markdown you fully own. Move it, back it up, open it in Obsidian — it doesn't need The Log to exist.
• Private and on-device. No account, nothing to sign up for — your data stays on your phone.
• Rich editing, tags, moods, a map of everywhere you've written, calendar view, [[wiki-links]], insights & streaks, and import from your old journaling apps.
iPhone + iPad, and it's an ongoing project — more features keep coming, and you'll never pay again for them.
Would genuinely love your feedback — ask me anything!
