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.
Finally! I've been drowning in features with Notion and other tools just to write a simple thought. Still feels like a breath of fresh air. My only worry with minimal apps is feature creep over time—do you plan to keep it strictly text-only, or are you considering things like photo attachments in the future?
@yoang_loo I was thinking that writing shouldn't feel like managing a system.
Your concern about feature creep is very valid — and it's something I'm actively cautious about. Still is meant to stay text-first and distraction-free.
I do think about moments when writing can feel heavy after a long day or week. The idea of Still is a private chat with yourself — a place to unload thoughts, not polish them.
I was thinking on adding new features (to make it more flexible), it would be things like voice notes (to let thoughts out without effort), and maybe images inside entries — always optional, always secondary to writing, and only if they make expression easier, not noisier.
Really appreciate all the feedback like this helps keep Still to be a better app.
@rangerlcy The difference isn't just writing, it's the intentional space around it, privacy by default, no feeds, no prompts, no pressure to optimize or structure your thoughts.
And unlike a notebook, you carry it with you everywhere. At work, on the street, in the middle of a conversation, whenever a thought, idea, or feeling suddenly appears and you just need to release it.
You can open Still, create your own space for ideas, and write it down right in that moment.
To everyone else, it looks like you're replying to a WhatsApp message, scrolling Instagram, or watching a reel, but in reality, you're capturing something for yourself.
That small moment of attention can be the difference between forgetting a thought… and giving it the space it deserves later.
