The base functionality of writing entries (not much in the way of formatting, though) is backed up by integration with your system calendar, so if you add events to that, you’ll have an automatic record of what you did. The only downside is it’s a little more expensive at $19.99. It has pretty much everything that Glimpses is missing plus features you didn’t even realize you wanted. If Glimpses is too minimalist for you but you like the basic idea, you’ll probably enjoy Diarium. If you’re already swamped with productivity apps and just want something simple to record a few thoughts, though, this is perfect. This app can only export your files to PDF, however, so if you want to switch to a different journaling app later, you may find it difficult.

It doesn’t come with many formatting tools, if that’s something you need, but for my very brief daily journaling needs, it’s pretty much all I want, and the developers claim they’ll be coming out with Android and iOS apps soon. If you want to find something you wrote, you can use the search feature or browse using the calendar. Glimpses uses your Dropbox for cloud storage. You do have the option, however, to give others access to your entries via a shareable link. You can make your basic text posts and add photos, but there’s no option to add fancy things like audio or drawings.
