@jbaty This is a super neat and creative way of exporting your #journelly entries!
At some point, I'd like to enable something like this from the app itself, though with the org file available, we have a bunch of existing tools we can through at it.
@iPhoneBlog_Link Thank you for the wonderful #journelly writeup!
I needed to adopt my org-journal printing routine to #Journelly. My first attempt has been so-so and too manual, but worked. I took some notes: https://copingmechanism.com/2025/05/printing-my-journelly-journal/#create-monthly-file
#journelly has been great for establishing a daily journal habit, and after a few months of TestFlight I'm happy I can finally pay for it.
I keep a few kinds of journals/logs. Journelly fits in as a super-quick & pleasant way to record the highlights of the day as text or photos without a bunch of weight. I've got it wired up to my iPhone's Action Button.
The underlying open format for your data is super-welcome, too. No roach motel.
Congratulations, @xenodium! https://indieweb.social/@xenodium/114432971161186925
Ok, still don’t know what it means for number of downloads but #Journelly is now #5 under lifestyle paid apps in the UK!

Who's working on a #Journelly package for #Emacs? Capture, navigation, exports, I dunno what it is yet, but it feels like something I want. :)
No idea what it means for downloads yet but Journelly is currently #8 under lifestyle paid apps in the UK 🤩🥺

Journelly: like tweeting but for your eyes only (offline / powered by plain text)

When opening an Org file, I like seeing the headers but prefer the drawers to be hidden. Here's a config that gives you that:
(setopt org-cycle-hide-drawer-startup t)
(setopt org-startup-folded 'nofold)
I've found this config especially useful if you use #journelly which puts a lot of useful meta-data into the drawers, but not what I necessarily want to see up-front.
I wrote a #journelly to denote-journal function
(defun my-denote-journal-refile-journelly ()
(interactive)
(let ((heading-regexp "^\\* \\[\\([0-9-]+\\) \\([A-Za-z]+\\) \\([0-9:]+\\)\\] @ \\(.*\\)"))
(if (re-search-forward heading-regexp nil t)
(let* ((date (match-string 1))
(file (denote-journal-path-to-new-or-existing-entry date)))
(my-denote-journal-refile-diary file))
(user-error "Cannot find the date of this entry"))))

@jtr @brab just spotted @Cthimothy’s wonderful #journelly post https://dice.camp/@Cthimothy@dice.camp/114416008894217783
A small blog post on Journelly and Denote integration: https://cthimothy.github.io/blog/2025/04/28/journelly-and-org.html
@jbaty @jtr 😊🥺 so lovely to see these comments and blog posts about #Journelly. Thanks so much!
Thank a lot @jiewawa
I did not know about the new application #sushitrain (alias #synctrain) , it does not appear in Apple store, because it is not in many stores French, US, and probably many others https://github.com/pixelspark/sushitrain/discussions/15
I have been able to install it through testflight. And I have now a way to sync #journelly to my linux boxes, and to android (with syncthing-fork). And it will allow a better synchronization of many applications where I was relying on clouds.
Hello #journelly users and it's author @xenodium
I like this app, but I have not yet found an efficient way to share the database with Linux. For the Mac users iCloud is the straight way to share. But iCloud is a closed source apple product, you cannot mount it on Linux and it is not compatible with rclone. For other apps I use a cloud provider Dropbox, Google Drive, ect. But even if the file app integrate them Journelly does not allow to save or backup on them. (It works with plainorgl
Who wants to add #Journelly to the tool page of #orgdown?
https://xenodium.com/journelly-open-for-beta
https://gitlab.com/publicvoit/orgdown/-/blob/master/doc/Tool-Support.org
Or even assess its od support?
@xenodium Hello Alvaro, thank for the access to #journelly. As it is not yet on github or an other forge, what is the better way to report bugs, or uneasy option, and ask for features?
Can we do via Mastodon, email, or is it better to always send them via testflight. I have also used #plainorg and I see some differences that I don't understand as you are the author of both.
New blog post #Journelly vs #emacs: Why Not Both?

#journelly is a native #ios personal, on device, microblogging app powered by #orgmode now open for beta testing 🥳
Notes can be synced to other devices using iCloud or any OS using #syncthing (see excellent #Synctrain)
