Still v1.1.6 More private journaling, now with Google Drive backup

We're getting ready to ship Still 1.1.6, and this update makes the app feel much more private, calm, and complete.

What's new in this version:

  • A new privacy toggle in History to hide messages and blur images, so past entries are not visible at a glance

  • Google Drive backup and restore, so Pro users can keep a safe copy of their journal

  • Gentle starter prompts to make it easier to begin writing when you don t know where to start

  • New empty states across the app to make the experience feel clearer and more thoughtful

  • More polish in Light Mode and premium flows

Still is a private space to write what you can't always say out loud, and this update pushes that idea further.

Still - A private space to think, write, and slow down

Still is a minimal journaling app designed for people who feel overwhelmed by noise, productivity pressure, and endless feeds. Unlike traditional journaling apps, Still doesn't track streaks, moods, or goals. It gives you a private, calm space to write freely — for clarity, not performance. No accounts. No social features. No prompts telling you how to feel. Just you, your thoughts, and a moment of stillness.

Still just got calmer! A redesigned space to write, reflect, and let go

Hey Product Hunt
I'm the indie developer behind Still, a private journaling app built around one simple idea:

Reflection shouldn t feel like a task you can fail at.

Today, I'm excited (and a bit nervous) to share a major update that rethinks how Still feels and flows.

More ways to express. Less friction while writing.

Still just got smoother, quieter, and more flexible.

You can now:

  • Add images directly from your gallery to your entries

  • Seek forward in voice notes for easier listening

  • Move between sections with smoother transitions

  • Write with improved keyboard behavior

  • Enjoy better performance and stability overall

🎙️ Voice Notes (Beta) are now available in Still

Voice notes are now available in Still as a new way to reflect when writing doesn't feel like enough.

This feature is currently in beta, so you may notice small limits or changes as I continue refining the experience.
