Kaydence opens straight onto today, ready for you to write. Add pictures, drawings and voice notes, check in on how you feel, and look back on the days that mattered. No accounts, no adverts, no tracking.
For Android phones and tablets · Free to download · Made by KaydeeCodes
Tap and start typing. Each day is a page you build from blocks: writing, checklists, sticky notes, pictures, voice notes and drawings. Everything saves by itself a moment after you stop.
Beside your page sits a quick daily check-in. Pick how you feel, note your sleep, rate your depression and anxiety, and tap where it hurts on the body map. Fill in as much or as little as you like.
Every check-in builds a picture over time. Insights turns your days into charts and a colourful year in pixels, and the calendar shows every day in the colour of your mood.
Days since counters tick up live from a moment that matters to you, or count down to something coming up. Each one gets its own colour, and you can put them on your home screen.
Thoughtful touches that make writing every day a little easier.
A daily nudge to write at the time you choose, with its own soft chime.
Turn any range of days into a tidy PDF with your ratings, charts and patterns.
A backup every day you write. Save a copy anywhere your phone offers, and restore with an undo.
Soft light and dark themes, or follow your phone. Choose your text size and font too.
Made for every phone and tablet. On a big screen, your page and check-in sit side by side.
Search every word you've ever written, and get a gentle look back at this day in years gone by.
Kaydence is free and private, and always will be. Kaydence Plus is one payment, not a subscription, and it unlocks every extra for good.

Yes. Kaydence is free to download, and writing, check-ins, pictures, voice notes, drawings, the calendar, search, reminders and backups are free for good. Kaydence Plus is an optional one-time payment that unlocks extras. There are no adverts and no subscriptions.
On your phone, in Kaydence's own private storage. It isn't uploaded anywhere, it's left out of your phone's cloud backup, and Kaydence doesn't even have permission to use the internet. A backup only leaves your phone when you save a copy somewhere yourself.
In Settings, Backups, tap Back up now and save a copy somewhere you can reach from the new phone, such as a cloud drive app or your computer. On the new phone, install Kaydence and restore that backup. If you bought Kaydence Plus, tap Restore purchase on the Kaydence Plus page while signed in to the same Google account.
No. Kaydence has no internet permission at all. If you buy Kaydence Plus, the Google Play Store app on your phone handles the payment and tells Kaydence it's unlocked.
Not yet. A lock with fingerprint or face unlock is planned for a later version. Until then, your phone's own screen lock keeps Kaydence private.
Not yet. Kaydence is coming to Android first.
