About

SimpleDay lets you keep a focused diary with one entry for each day, rather than an endless stream of posts or notes. You write entries in Markdown, using formatting, headings, lists, and other supported syntax to capture thoughts, experiences, and memories. A live preview lets you switch between Markdown editing and rendered text, while automatic saving preserves changes as you write.

The minimalist, distraction-free interface is designed for private journaling, and an app lock can restrict access with biometrics such as a fingerprint or Face ID, or with your device PIN. Entries remain on the device and can also be backed up automatically through WebDAV to a cloud server you control, including services such as Nextcloud or ownCloud. On first launch, its smart import feature can bring existing diary entries over from WebDAV.

SimpleDay suits people who want a calm daily writing habit, personal reflections, or a private record of memories without feeds or clutter. It has no account sign-up, and it includes no trackers, advertisements, or analytics; its network communication is limited to the WebDAV server you configure. This open-source Android software belongs to the Reading & Writing category and is intended for arm64-v8a devices running Android 7.0 or later. The current version is 1.4.0.

What's new in v1.4.0

Fixed: with App Lock on, switching to another app for a moment asked for your fingerprint again and threw away entry text you had not saved yet. The lock now waits (5 minutes by default, settable to 0, 1, 5 or 15 in Settings), and the entry you were writing stays open behind the lock screen.

Faster: the "+" button no longer reads every entry in the diary to find today's, so it opens straight away on a long-running diary.
