Six domains. Eighteen wins.
One method, repeated daily.
Each domain holds three wins. Three is small enough to do on a hard day and meaningful enough to compound. Pick yours from the defaults or swap them on Pro.

The wellness app that can't read your journal.
Your entries are encrypted on-device with MMKV. They never leave your phone. Not for sync, not for backup, not for AI training. The only thing that touches our servers is anonymized session metadata: enough to keep your streak consistent, nothing more.

The questions
worth asking.
Morrow Self is a private journal and daily-wins tracker for people who want to treat their life like a system they can iterate on. Track wins across 6 life domains (physical, mental, learning, social, productivity, creativity), reflect with three structured journal sessions (morning, evening, deep dive), and watch streaks build. Your journal entries are encrypted on-device — we can't read them, even if we wanted to.
Two differences. First, Morrow Self isn't journaling-only — daily wins across 6 life domains are the primary surface, with journaling as the reflective layer underneath. Second, journal entries never leave your phone. Only anonymized session metadata (timestamps, durations) syncs. Day One syncs entries to iCloud; Stoic syncs to its own cloud. Morrow Self syncs nothing readable.
Journal content is encrypted on-device with MMKV and never transmitted to our servers. Only session metadata (which session type, when, how long) syncs to keep streaks consistent across devices. We have no infrastructure that could read your entries even if compelled to. The privacy nutrition labels on the App Store reflect this — 'Data Not Collected' for journal content, voice recordings, message content.
Free covers 18 predefined wins across 6 domains, all three journal session types, streaks, fiesta celebrations, and three languages. Pro ($4.99/mo, $39/yr, or $79 one-time) unlocks custom wins, AI-personalized journal prompts, insights v2 (pattern detection), uncapped timer wins, and advanced theming. The free tier is genuinely useful — we want privacy-first to be a real choice, not a paywalled feature.
Only with Pro, only on-device, and only if you opt in. AI-personalized prompts use a local model (no cloud), and you can disable the feature entirely. The default Pro behavior is the same as Free: nothing readable leaves your phone.
Physical, mental, learning, social, productivity, and creativity. Three wins per domain, 18 total. The split isn't dogmatic — it's the smallest grid that covers a life without becoming a chore. The /method page walks through why this split, and the wins map page lists all 18 with the science behind each.
