JournalCapture
Photo capture and privacy-first journaling app with AI-powered reflection.
About
JournalCapture is a journaling app built with Kotlin Multiplatform that combines photo capture with AI-driven reflection. The idea is simple — snap a photo from your day, write a few thoughts, and let the AI surface patterns and insights you might miss on your own. Everything stays on-device first, because your journal shouldn't live on someone else's server.
I'm building this because I genuinely believe in journaling as a tool for self-awareness. I do Morning Pages, voice journaling, and wanted something that combined the visual side of my day with deeper reflection — without the friction.
