Gratitude

Gratitude is a journaling and mindfulness app focused on noticing positive experiences and living with intention. Its journal supports guided prompts, photos, voice recordings, streaks, and hundreds of prompts. Users can read or listen to affirmations, write their own, add music, and record their voice. Vision boards combine photos, quotes, and affirmations, with support for multiple boards and videos set to music. Daily Zen includes quotes, thought-switch ideas, thank-you cards, affirmations, articles, and real-life stories. The app is listed for Android, iOS, and macOS. Journal entries can be exported as CSV or PDF. Its privacy policy says entries stay on the device, no account is required, and the company does not store or access entries. Users can back up app data to Google Drive on Android and Apple devices, and optionally sync selected content across Apple devices with iCloud. The free app download is free; Pro features require an in-app purchase. A free trial is also available.
