What it is
AI Journal Pro is a journaling app for Android and iOS that supports both typed and spoken entries. Voice entries are transcribed, and users can edit the cleaned transcription before saving. AI features can produce weekly insights, monthly recaps and a year in review based on journal entries. Users can mark entries Bad, Neutral or Good, with colored mood dots shown in the calendar. Entries can include photos, tags, Markdown and checklists; the app also offers full-text search, starred entries, biometric locking, reminders and AI suggestions for titles, tags and moods. Reading and writing work offline, while voice transcription and AI recaps require an internet connection. Entries are stored locally in a SQLite database by default; optional sync uses Google Drive or, on iOS, iCloud. The maker says journal data is encrypted locally and in cloud sync with AES-256, and that AI processing requires permission and does not retain submitted content beyond the request or use it for model training. The free plan includes writing, calendar, search, on-device dictation and export. AI transcription, text cleanup and recaps cost €4.99/month; an own-key option costs €39.99 one-time, with provider costs paid directly.
