What is iglu?

Micro-journaling with semantic search, kept private.

Who is iglu best for?

iglu is best for iPhone users who want a private micro-journal for quick thoughts, with search that runs on the phone.

  • Private journaling

    Entries stay on your phone and in your own iCloud account, the app asks for no name or email, and the maker says it never sees your data.

  • Finding old thoughts

    Its search and related-entry suggestions work on the phone itself, so past notes and memories resurface without being sent to a server.

  • Keeping memories as written

    Each entry locks one day after you write it, and later reflections are added as comments instead of edits.

  • Journaling with context

    You can attach the date, place, photos and videos to an entry, and the app still works if you deny those permissions.

How much does iglu cost?

iglu does not list prices on its website: the journal app is sold only through Apple's App Store, which shows what it costs.

iglu's website is a single page with an App Store button, plus a privacy policy and a support email; it names no prices or plans. Whatever the app costs is shown on its App Store page. Plans and current prices are on iglu.website.
