# Diarly

> Diarly is a private journaling and diary app for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch, designed for private writing and reflection across Apple devices.

Diarly is built for the Apple ecosystem. A Diarly account is not required. Without iCloud sync, journal data is stored on the user's device. With Diarly Premium, journals can sync through the user's own iCloud account. Diarly does not store users' journals on its own servers.

Encryption is optional and available with Diarly Premium. By default, entries stored in iCloud Drive are saved as plain text. For current information about privacy, encryption, subscriptions, AI features, and compatibility, use the official Diarly documentation below rather than inferring behavior from this summary.
