Apple’s Journal App Released! — What’s Inside?

Apple hinted to the Journal app during WWDC23, stating it would be available “later this year.” It has been one of the most anticipated features of iOS 17 ever since.

Apple’s Journal App Released! — What’s Inside?

What’s that?
After updating to iOS 17.2 Developer Beta 1, I was surprised to discover the Journal app right out of the box.

It’s out now, guys!
(Restricted to iOS 17.2. As of right now, neither macOS 14.2 nor iPadOS 17.2 have Journal.)

For your information, below is the URL to its App Store. (If you are not running iOS 17.2, it will not download.)

Here’s Journal

Since I don’t journal very often, I tried typing a few journals to see how the app worked.

Here, I wanted to share with you a little taste of my own experience using the app.

Let me start by saying that you are free to remove Journal if you are already using another journaling app, such as Day One.

It’s not an undeletable system app like Safari.
