Apple Journal is a personal journaling app for recording everyday moments and special events. Entries can include text, photos, videos, audio recordings, drawings, locations and your state of mind. There are also writing prompts and journaling suggestions, multiple journals, search, calendar and map views, and facilities for tracking your journaling habits.

Journal is proprietary software and is not available for Linux. We recommend the best free and open source alternatives.
