Write on this device first
No mandatory account before the first entry.
Serious personal archive
DayKept is a local-first journal for people who want their archive to stay understandable. Write on your device, search real text later, and move deliberately with visible backup and restore.
No mandatory account before the first entry.
Titles, body text and tags stay retrievable as the archive grows.
Backup, restore and export stay visible instead of hidden behind sync.
What it looks like
Search, restore and the current Pro filters are visible in the current build.
Supportive surface
The landing stays short on purpose. Open the plan page when you want the exact Free and Pro split without piecing it together from paywalls.
Workflow
Journals, tags and local writing are ready on the device you hold.
Pro is for filtering search by journal, tag and archive date, and for removing the photo cap when the archive grows.
In Wave 1 the path between devices is backup, restore and selective export, not background sync.
Free stays useful. Pro is a one-time unlock on this platform.
Pricing
One-time unlock on this platform. Not a subscription. No sync, desktop companion or companion web in Wave 1.
Current Android launch price appears in the app and Play listing. Regional pricing may vary.
