Don’t know what to write?

Click the More button (···) and choose Prompt. Zee will give you a topic to write about for 8 minutes. Writing for 8 minutes a day, a few times a week, quickly adds up to something remarkable.

Copy entry link

Click the More button (···) and choose Copy Link to Entry. A link to the selected journal entry will be copied to the clipboard. The default link name is the journal entry date, but you can change it to whatever you like. You can then paste the link in a different journal entry OR a different app. When you click the link, the original journal entry will be opened.

Choose an emotion

Emotions are an integral part of Lifecraft (see Emotions Overview). To add an emotion to a journal entry, click the emotion bar on the right side of the screen and select an emotion. See Adding Emotions for more information. 

After you've recorded some emotions in Lifecraft, discover what's trending in your emotional life using the Emotion Charts: choose More (···) > Charts

Tag your entries

Tags (requires Lifecraft Premium) allow you to group entries even if those entries belong to different journals. Let’s say you want to create a Food tag. 

1. Click  at the bottom of a journal entry.
2. Type "Food".
3. When you’re done typing, the tag will automatically be created and added to your entry.
4. You can then filter your entry list to show all entries that have the "Food" tag.
