Cairn · iPhone app
A gratitude journal app that asks one question a night.
Cairn is a gratitude journal app that asks you once each evening to write down three things you were thankful for that day, and keeps them. No streaks, no scoring, no feed. The archive is the point, not the streak. The free tier covers the nightly reminder, the three lines, the archive and one resurfaced entry. A one-off unlock adds voice entry, search, on-this-day, browse-by-month, a widget and Lock Screen complication, and export.
The archive is the point, not the streak.
Most journaling apps want daily engagement and punish you for missing. Cairn asks one question a night and is content if you skip it. Three lines is the whole session.
The free tier covers the nightly reminder, the three lines, the archive and one resurfaced entry. The one-off unlock adds voice entry, search, on-this-day, browse-by-month, a widget and Lock Screen complication, and export. No subscription, no ads.
