What's new?
Journelly v1.3 brings Markdown support (the most requested feature), along with Simplified Chinese localization and other enhancements.
Markdown support
Journelly first launched with Org markup support, popular among Emacs enthusiasts. Markdown support has by far been the most requested feature. Thank you to everyone who reached out, shared your interest, and helped beta test early builds.
Whether you're a fan of Markdown or Org-mode, Journelly now lets you store entries in your preferred format. Choose your favorite markup on first launch or via the app menu.
So you like Markdown things?
While on topic, I also run lmno.lol, a Markdown-powered blogging service. Simple and focused, without the frustrating parts of the modern web. Custom domains welcome. My xenodium.com blog runs off lmno.lol.
Simplified Chinese (简体中文)
Simplified Chinese (简体中文) is now available, joining Journelly's list of supported languages:
- Simplified Chinese (简体中文)
- Danish
- Dutch
- English
- Finnish
- French
- German
- Italian
- Japanese
- Norwegian
- Spanish
- Swedish
Home Screen Widget
A home screen widget is now available, offering quick access to three key actions right from the home screen.
Discoverable mode
Prefer clear buttons over swipe gestures? You can now enable Discoverable Mode under “Menu > View.” This new mode makes features more visible and easier to navigate, perfect for folks favoring more explicit interaction over gestures or subtle hints.
Org rendering
For Org users: Journelly now renders both quote and code blocks.
Tidying the list up
The entry list received a little refresh to make better use of screen space. Bottom-aligned controls also make for easier one-handed use.
Love Journelly? I need your help
Since launch, Journelly has remained a single-payment app. No subscriptions. I get it, subscriptions are no fun.
That said, sustainable development is tough without regular downloads. I'm hoping the new Markdown support helps Journelly reach a wider audience.
