Note-Taking Tools
Platform information checked 2026-10-24. The Android application is GPL-3.0 free software, with official APK and documented F-Droid downloads. Your device and storage are separate. Google Drive backup requires that separate account and its storage allowance; voice input can involve your device's speech service. App locking is not a claim of end-to-end encrypted cloud storage. It replaces personal journal workflows, without promising Day One's publishing, synchronization or migration equivalence.
Official app downloads and supported devicesUse the publisher’s linked store or documented APK channel. AltStack does not host APK files. A player or independent client does not grant access to paid subscription content.
Keep a personal Android journal with dated entries, photos, search, calendar browsing and optional backup.
