Designed for a local-first first version
The app uses on-device storage for diary entries, future letters, attachments, tables, themes, and settings.
iCloud sync is not enabled in the latest version, so Made by Choc cannot access your journal through iCloud.
Notifications are not enabled in the latest version, so the app does not register for push notifications or reminder delivery.
