No blank pageA draft is ready before you write a word.
The people you spend time withName someone once, and the days and conversations you share are filed under them.
Your dataIt stays on your iPhone, and you can export all of it.
There's always someone
in your day.
Who you talked with, where you went, what you did together.
Months later, you can look up when you last saw someone and what you talked about.
Skip writing, and the day is still recorded.

Inside the app
Your day on a timeline
Plans, places, notes, workouts and sleep line up along the hours. With Apple Watch, you also see when your body was tense or relaxed, compared with your usual self at that time of day.
Tap any hour to leave a note about it. After a workout, see how your heart rate came back down.
What changed this month
Once a month, it lists what changed: who you started seeing, who you haven't seen in a while, and topics that stopped coming up. Tap a photo from that month to open the day.
"Yamamoto appeared for the first time in these 4 weeks." "Sato hasn't appeared since the week of 6/8."
Record a conversation
Record a conversation and it's transcribed on your iPhone and split by speaker. The audio is deleted once it's text. Name a speaker, and their conversations are filed under that person.
On Apple Watch, press once to start recording. Your iPhone does the rest.
Where a conversation picked up
Heart rate, voice pitch, who talked how much, and laughter are plotted over the length of a conversation, so you can see where it got lively.
Touch the chart to read what was said at that moment. Heart rate appears only with Apple Watch.
Morning notes and weekly letters
Each morning, a short note about the day before. At the end of the week, a letter written from seven days of records. Each day also gets a picture made from it, and each night a song chosen for it.
Even on the free plan, a morning note arrives once a week.

Questions
Do I really not have to write?
Really. A draft of your day is already there, built from places, photos, sleep, steps and plans. Read it, fix what you like, and save it. On days you'd rather talk, one line into the mic is enough.
How is this different from other AI journaling apps?
Most AI journaling apps work from what you write, or chat with you and turn that into an entry. Liner Notes starts before you write: the draft comes from your places, photos, calendar, sleep, steps and heart rate, and you edit it at night. Conversations are transcribed on your iPhone and the audio is deleted afterward. There's no account, and you choose where text is generated: on your iPhone, Apple's Private Cloud Compute, or OpenAI.
Where are my records kept?
On your iPhone. There's no account, and your diary and conversations aren't stored on our servers. In Settings, you choose where text is generated: on your iPhone, Apple's Private Cloud Compute, or OpenAI.
What happens to other people's voices in a conversation?
Recordings are turned into text on your iPhone and deleted afterward. Only the voice features of people you name are kept, to recognize who's speaking. Voice features of people you haven't named are deleted within 90 days. Whether to tell people in the room is up to you.
Do I need an Apple Watch?
No. With Apple Watch you can record conversations from your wrist, and your day's timeline shows when your body was tense or relaxed.
I'm worried I'll quit halfway.
While you're away, the automatic record keeps going, and it's waiting for you the day you come back. There are no streaks, so there's nothing to lose.
What's the difference between free and the subscription?
Free gives you the daily diary, automatic records, drafting and polishing, and export, plus a morning note once a week. The subscription ($3.99/month, or $29.99/year with 7 days free) adds a morning note every day, weekly letters, conversation records, a picture for each day and a song for each night. Your first 3 mornings (up to 7 days) are free to try with no card.
