Description

Mémoires is an easy-to-use electronic journaling software that has been used by thousands of people to keep their diaries, take notes for projects, write travel journals and more on their Macs.

It's a solid, well-built app designed exclusively for macOS, and thus launches faster, uses less memory, has familiar keyboard shortcuts, and integrates nicely with the rest of the system, unlike other similar cross-platform or web apps.

Mémoires has been available for 15 years. It will not disappear, like many startups and web apps that will stop working or suddenly close your account without explanation. Mémoires is on your Mac and your data is also on your Mac. You own the app and you own your data. That's the ultimate privacy — nobody else has your data, which is especially important for personal diaries.

There are no ads, no tracking, no subscriptions.

* Simple and Beautiful. Mémoires has an easy-to-use, elegant interface and zero useless features. Begin writing your journal right away instead of reading help files.

* Encrypted Journals. Your personal diary is safe from prying eyes — just set a password for your journal, and Mémoires will encrypt it using the secure AES-256 cipher.

* Standard File Format. The proven SQLite database file format, which is recommended by the U.S. Library of Congress for long-term preservation of digital content, ensures that your data lasts for centuries, and there is no vendor lock-in. Additionally, you can export your journals to RTF, plain text, or PDF.

* Browse or Quickly Search. Browse using the calendar or view all entries in one list. You can also use instant search to find entries you want to read or edit.

* Spelling and Grammar. Spot and fix spelling and grammar mistakes as you type or use the automatic correction. Improve your typography with smart quote and dash substitutions.

* Quick drawings. Just like in a paper journal, the Quick Drawing feature allows you to draw sketches, doodles, or anything you like right inside the Mémoires app using your Mac’s track pad or mouse.

* Journals are Files. With Mémoires you can have as many journals as you like — each journal is a file that is stored where you want, just like your Pages or Word documents, but with the calendar and many entries inside instead of pages. You can back them up easily, make copies, or even share with friends and family who also have Mémoires installed.

* Diary Printing. You can print the whole journal, only entries for a specified period, or even a single entry. The program automatically inserts dates and titles where needed.

* Autosave and Versions. Mémoires automatically saves your journals to your Mac, so you won’t lose them. The program is fully compatible with Time Machine for seamless backups.

* Full Screen Editing. Focus on writing your journal entries without distractions, because Mémoires comes with the native full screen editing.

* Awesome dark mode. It even automatically adapts text and drawings to the right color. And check out the blur effect in the entry title bar.

* Color labels for your entries. Group what you write by color and then you can easily see all enteries for the labels.

* Insert from iPhone or iPad. Use your iPhone or iPad to add photo, draw a sketch or scan a document right into Mémoires on your Mac.
