Frequently asked questions about WOYM
Do I need an account to use WOYM?
No. The app works without one, and your journal stays on your phone. To back it up, use it on the web or share entries, turn on Cloud Sync in Settings: add your email, confirm it, and choose a password. Everything you wrote before then starts syncing.
I forgot my password. How do I get back in?
Tap "Forgot password?" on the sign in screen in the app, or at woym.app/login. We'll email you a link: open it, choose a new password, and sign in with it. The link works once, so if it has expired, ask for a new one.
Can I share my entries with others?
Yes! You can share any journal entry via email directly from the app. WOYM remembers your "previously shared with" contacts, so sharing with the same people again is quick and easy.
What devices can I use WOYM on?
WOYM is available on iOS and as a web app you can access from any browser. An Android app is coming soon.
Can anyone else read my journals?
No. Your entries are encrypted in transit and at rest, and only your account can open them. Nobody sees an entry unless you choose to share it. You can also lock the app with Face ID or your passcode. Our Privacy Policy at woym.app/privacy has the details.
Can I export my entries?
Yes! You can export your journal entries in both plain text and Markdown formats, so you always have a portable copy of your writing.
Can I add photos, videos, and audio?
Absolutely. WOYM supports photos, videos, and audio recordings in your entries. The free plan includes 50MB of media storage. The Lifetime plan gives you unlimited storage.
Can I add location to entries?
Yes. WOYM can auto-detect your city when you create an entry, and you can edit the location at any time. Your entries appear on the map in Memories, so you can revisit memories by place.
Can I edit the date of my entry?
Yes. You can change the date of any entry after creating it, which is useful if you want to backdate a journal entry or correct a mistake.
