I didn't like your iOS app initially, but now that I've seen a Mac version, Day One is very appealing! If I install a journaling habit in the future, I'll be using this. Also, for me a yearly calendar view would be useful, where you can scroll up and down through months.

The newest editor is so slick. I love inline markdown being changed to rich text on the spot.

Six months ago, Day One 3.0 for iOS was launched — so it's exciting to see the Mac app also get a matching update focused on speed, performance, and long-term maintainability, as well as some enhancements: - New: Single-entry window - New: Editor selection and text formatting menus

Great to see macOS update. Cons: dual pane of list and entries are somewhat distracting. Please add option to show list in single view.

Pros:

- Beautiful design and intuitive navigation. - Convenient formatting with an option to clear all effects (!). - Custom font.

Cons:

- Couldn't readily find shortcuts, only discovered them buried in settings.
