Most journals are a timeline. You write, the entry drops to the top of a list, and slowly everything sinks out of view. Remember adds a dimension the others don't: place.
Free up to 100 entries · Unlock unlimited for €4.99 once · iOS 17+
Every entry can sit on a map — so looking back is a completely different experience.
Open the map and there it is: the restaurant from that trip, the trail you loved, the venue where you saw your favourite band. Tap a pin and the memory comes back with it.
What you wrote, where you went, and what you did. Add a title and a few lines, pick from 100 categories, drop it on the map. Over a year it becomes a personal atlas of your life.
We remember our lives spatially. You might forget the date of a good evening, but you remember the corner it happened on. A map taps into that — it turns a pile of entries into somewhere you can wander.
Free up to 100 entries, then a one-time €4.99 to unlock everything — no subscription. No account, no cloud: your entries stay on your iPhone.
Every entry lives where it happened. Open the map and browse your life by location — restaurants, hikes, concerts, everyday moments, all pinned in place.
From restaurants and hikes to concerts and books. Pick a category for each entry and filter your map or list to see exactly what you're looking for.
Rate every entry 1–5 stars. Your best moments rise to the top — so finding that perfect dinner or unforgettable view takes two taps, not ten minutes of scrolling.

I'm Florian — an indie iOS developer from Murnau/Munich. I kept a journal for years, but something always felt missing. The entries were there, but finding them — actually going back — meant scrolling through a list hoping to recognise a date. The memory was real. The app just couldn't show it to me.
Remember started from one idea: what if every entry could live where it happened? Not as metadata nobody looks at, but as the primary way you navigate your past. Open the map, see your life laid out by place, tap a pin and there it is.
It's a one-person project built for people who want to look back, not just write. If you have thoughts or questions, you can reach me directly at support@remember-journal.com.
Common questions about journaling apps with a map.
Yes — Remember. Every entry can be pinned to an interactive Apple Maps view, so you can browse your life by location instead of scrolling a list. Tap a pin to see everything you captured at that place.
A normal journal is a chronological list. Remember adds place: you can filter by category, open the map, and rediscover entries by where they happened — not just when. It's a completely different way to look back at your life.
Free up to 100 entries — enough to genuinely see how the map feels with your own memories. A one-time €4.99 unlocks unlimited entries and all 100 categories. No subscription, no renewal.
Yes. Entries stay on your iPhone — there's no account and no cloud. The app is made in Germany and is fully GDPR compliant. Nothing leaves your device.
