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.
✨ What’s new in this release?
🧭 A refreshed UI & navigation
The app is now simpler, clearer, and easier to move through — fewer distractions, more focus on what matters: writing.
🔥 An improved "Burn" experience
Sometimes you don’t want to save a thought — you want to release it.
The Burn feature now feels more intentional and fluid, helping thoughts fade away instead of piling up.
🕰️ A new History screen
When you do want to look back, History lets you revisit past entries gently, without turning reflection into pressure.
📂 Better section management
Organize your writing in a way that makes sense to you, with smoother interactions and clearer structure.
🎨 Visual polish & micro-interactions
Subtle animations, calmer transitions, and lots of small details that make the app feel more human.
🌱 What Still is (and what it's not)
Still is:
Private by default
Calm, minimal, and judgment-free
Built for irregular use — no streaks, no pressure
Still is not:
A productivity tracker
A habit-forcing app
A place that tells you how often you should reflect
You open it when you need it. That's it.
💬 I'd love your feedback
This update was shaped by real user feedback and a lot of iteration.
If you try it, I'd love to hear:
What feels better?
What still feels confusing?
What you’d change next?
Thanks for checking out Still — and for supporting indie makers 💛

Really nice visual polish here. The micro-interactions and clamer transitions make it feel more like a quiet room than an app, which fits the purpose perfectly.

@charlos_brat Thank you! that "quiet room" comparison means a lot.
That was exactly the feeling I was aiming for: something you enter, not something that asks things from you.
