   I live in Day One

   I have been using Day One since it was in beta. I am a writer and digital content specialist so I do a lot of writing. Day One has grown in capability and beauty since its inception -- I use it more and more everyday.

   To be frank, I tried to use EverNote but found to cumbersome and a bit much. For my mind, Day One provided the perfect palelette for me to sit down and write anything -- the tag it, or easily move it to another journal. It allows up to 10 journals, one of which I have synced to my Instagram, as I like to keep a record of what I post there.

   If you are writing daily, doing Morning Pages, if you blog and need a place to work on drafts, Day One's set up is so easy. It syncs over the cloud to your phone (I'm on Apple products, recognizes voice to text smoothly and allows images to be easily drag and dropped.

   The interface with tagging could be slightly more intuitive but the team is constantly doing updates and I am sure that will be worked out soon.

   I love it and recommend it to anyone writing.

   🏁 Competitors: Evernote, Scrivener, Microsoft Word, Google Docs

   👍 Pros:    Intuitive|Beautiful search experience|Instagram|Easy user interface|Inexpensive|Great for writers|Great value for the money

   👎 Cons:    Tagging needs to be made easier

  I journal on and off but I find it difficult to get myself to make it stick as a habit. Physical journaling is tough sometimes because I'm not home etc etc... But I'm thinking of trying out the Day One journal. Source: about 1 year ago

  For general diary writing, I use Day One. It's clean, easy to use, and has no frills. You just...write. When I got it, it was one price but now it's a subscription for $2.99 a month. Source: about 1 year ago

• Spotify is shutting down in my country. Alternatives?

  As for moving your playlists, I use this app. I bought a perpetual licence for it years ago and it's so handy. I used it to move all my stuff from Spotify but I keep it installed on my phone for whenever someone sends me a Spotify playlist, I can just copy it to YouTube Music in seconds. Source: 7 months ago

• Curious to know who uses YouTube Music over Spotify, and why?

  There are a bunch of services that will move your music library for you. I use Free Your Music but there might be newer/better options since I bought it. Source: about 1 year ago

• How do I revert to the old home screen?

  There are a ton of transfer services out there, SongShift is one, FreeYourMusic is another, they aren’t perfect but will get you 90% of the way there. Source: about 1 year ago
