Maker here. I've kept a written diary for ~20 years, and two things always broke it: I'd fall off the habit, and I could never actually re-read two decades of notebooks. DailyVox is my attempt to fix both — you talk for ~42 seconds, your phone transcribes it, and over time it builds a "Digital Twin" that reflects your patterns back to you. The non-negotiable for me: it had to be private. Everything is processed on-device — no account, no server holding your entries, nothing to breach. I also made it free and open source, because the moment a journaling app has a subscription it has a reason to want your darkest day, and I didn't want to build that. Genuinely curious what this community thinks: for something this personal, does "on-device + free" make you more likely to trust it, or do you assume there's a catch? Happy to answer anything. ▎ there's a catch? Happy to answer anything.
