FIVE minutes

About this app

FIVE is a calm, private journaling app that helps you improve your wellbeing in just five minutes a day. Pay once. Yours forever. - No subscription, ever. Two simple one-time purchases: Core unlocks the daily journal — unlimited writing, your own templates, mood check-ins, reminders and iCloud sync. Everything adds handwriting, photos, mood insights over time, the widgets, writing via Siri and the Face ID lock. - Try everything free for 7 days. Reading your entries — and exporting them — stays free forever. - No ads. No trackers. No sign-up. - Your entries stay private. They sync only through your own iCloud — we run no servers of our own, and we never see them. What FIVE gives you more time to do: Reflect: - Build a gratitude practice into your daily routine, as recommended by leaders like Tony Robbins, Tim Ferriss and Oprah Winfrey. - Look back on your day and learn from it. - Keep space for your thoughts and everything on your mind. Feel: - Check in with one of five faces — one tap in the morning, one at night. - Watch your weeks take shape: a gently narrated summary, a soft curve, a calendar of faces, a colour heatmap. - Tap any day in the summary and the entry behind it opens. Plan: - Plan joyful activities and picture happy moments for the day ahead to get into the right mindset. - Outline new ideas for your personal growth. Get inspired: - Each day brings a quote from inspiring thinkers to reflect on — on your Home Screen too, as a widget. Make it yours: - Customise your journal to fit your ideas. - Change the questions to suit your needs. - Add blocks and rows; use multi-line or single-line, numbered or unnumbered text fields. - Write and sketch by hand with Apple Pencil, and keep photos right inside your entries. - Save your layout for every day to come. Take it everywhere: - Add a thought through Siri or Shortcuts without opening the app, and see from the Lock Screen whether today's entry is written. - Jump to any day, month or year with the calendar. - Lock FIVE behind Face ID, and export your whole journal as a readable file whenever you like. Start with FIVE today if you want to: - improve your overall wellbeing in the long run. - reduce anxiety and negativity. - get to know yourself better. - welcome more joy into your life. Privacy: - FIVE uses iCloud to sync your private data between your devices. If you'd rather it didn't, disable iCloud for the app in the iOS settings. - Your entries are private and visible only to you, synced through your own Apple-provided iCloud database.

FIVE has learnt to listen — this release is all about how you feel. • Mood, in one tap: add the mood block to your journal and check in with one of five faces, morning and evening. No scales, no forms. • Your mood over time: a gently narrated look back at your weeks — a soft curve, a calendar of faces, a colour heatmap. Tap any day and the entry behind it opens. • Handwriting: a block for the Apple Pencil (or your finger) — for the things a keyboard can't hold. • Photos: place a photo block anywhere in your entry and keep the moment right next to the words. • On your Home Screen: the quote of the day as a widget, in FIVE's own day and night moods; Lock Screen widgets show whether today's entry is written. • "Hey Siri, add to my journal": a passing thought lands in today's notes without opening the app. Open today's entry from Siri, Shortcuts or Spotlight. • Jump anywhere: the new calendar takes you straight to any day, month or year. • Yours, always: export your whole journal as a readable file — and import it back any time. Optionally lock FIVE behind Face ID. FIVE also starts faster and turns pages more smoothly. One more thing: FIVE is free to start now. Seven days with everything in it, then a one-time unlock — no subscription, ever. If you already bought FIVE, nothing changes: it stays yours in full, with nothing to do. Thank you for spending five minutes with us.
