Write to yourself.
Gently.
DearSelf is an on-device AI journal agent that listens, reflects, and never leaves your phone. No cloud. No network. Just you and your words.
Your journal, your way
Every detail designed to feel like opening a notebook — quiet, personal, and entirely yours.
AI that listens
A gentle, on-device journal agent that helps you reflect — asks the right questions, notices patterns, and never judges. All processing happens on your phone.
Completely private
No servers. No accounts. No analytics. Your entries live on your device — or in your personal iCloud if you choose. We never see your data.
Mood tracking
Nine hand-drawn mood icons — from happy to anxious to chill — let you mark how you feel in a single tap. See patterns over days, weeks, and months.
Calendar & entries
Switch between a list of entries and a quiet calendar grid. Photos fill the day cells; mood icons float behind dates. Events and reminders sit alongside your writing.
Works offline
No Wi-Fi required. The AI runs entirely on-device — write on a plane, in the woods, or anywhere your thoughts find you. Your journal is always ready.
Designed with care
Every pixel considered. Spectral serif for your words, hairline icons, generous whitespace. Four themes — default, notebook, terminal, glass — each crafted to match how you feel.
Privacy is the architecture,
not a setting.
DearSelf has no server. The AI model runs on Apple's Neural Engine, right on your device. Your journal entries never travel over a network — they stay in local storage or your personal iCloud, at your choice. There is nothing to breach because there is nothing to reach.
