What it is
Clearful is a digital journaling app for personal growth, mindfulness, and mental health. It includes more than 400 guided journals, prompts, and templates, while the Flow Editor offers over 14 formatting options such as headings, checklists, quotes, and links. Users can make custom templates, group guided journals into collections, and use Rediscover to bring older entries back into view. AI-enhanced reviews summarize journal activity and insights. Apps are listed for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Android, and web, with entries syncing across devices. On iOS, Apple's on-device Journaling Suggestions API can add suggested moments to entries. The maker says entries are encrypted on-device, in transit using TLS, and at rest by its cloud computing platform. Privacy controls include biometric authentication, entry locks, and device access management; the maker also says it does not show ads or sell data. The free plan includes unlimited entries indefinitely, while some features require Pro. Pro costs $9.99 a month and includes photos, unlimited devices, insights, more guided journals, custom templates, and themes. A 7-day trial is listed.
