Still is a minimal journaling app designed for people who feel overwhelmed by noise, productivity pressure, and endless feeds. Unlike traditional journaling apps, Still doesn't track streaks, moods, or goals. It gives you a private, calm space to write freely — for clarity, not performance. No accounts. No social features. No prompts telling you how to feel. Just you, your thoughts, and a moment of stillness.

Hey 👋 I built Still after realizing that most journaling apps made me feel like I was performing reflection instead of actually doing it. Everything today pushes us to optimize, share, and constantly improve — even our thoughts. I wanted the opposite: a quiet, private space where writing feels natural, not pressured. Still is how I personally write when I need clarity or calm. It's simple, intentional, and designed to stay out of your way. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by noise (or by productivity-focused tools), I'd love to hear what you think. Happy to answer any questions — thanks for checking it out 🙏

Installed! I've been searching for a place to organize my thoughts and just love the conversation that I can talk to myself. With color differentiation and the section, it is not that overwhelming to review what I wrote. Thanks again for the peaceful design.
Amazing application, this is something we could really use nowadays. The way things are so crazy now that people just don’t take the time to slow down and think, very nice of.
Hi, congratulate on launch! Downloaded this app right away, I really like the UI, very immersive and simple to use, the whole process is very smooth. I also really like the cute daily reflection “reminder”. Just one small advice, the voice record started itself the moment I open the note, personally I would prefer for myself to turn it on.
If the notes are stored entirely locally, I'd be quite interested in trying it out.
Congrats on the launch, the positioning around slowing down and creating mental space really resonates. I like how minimal the concept feels, especially for people overwhelmed by noisy, feature-heavy journaling apps. “A private space to think and write” is simple, but that’s exactly the value here. Curious how you’re thinking about long-term habit formation without adding pressure or gamification.
Finally! I've been drowning in features with Notion and other tools just to write a simple thought. Still feels like a breath of fresh air. My only worry with minimal apps is feature creep over time—do you plan to keep it strictly text-only, or are you considering things like photo attachments in the future?
