Commentary: I don't use Journal every night, but even opening the app and looking back helps put time into perspective.

Export to what? Why? Jesus like pick some random, arbitrary feature to spread FUD 🤷‍♂️

Export to cleartext files or markdowns, so you can keep your data if you ever decide to delete your icloud account, or get an android phone, etc.

Can't believe this has to be explained, but a Journal is almost by definition something that you want to keep forever. Do you want to lock yourself into Apple devices forever? Have you ever heard of Nokia?

I can’t believe I have to explain this but Apple’s strength comes from their ecosystem. From smart home devices to appliances, to copy paste between devices, storing files in iCloud, air drop, and much much more.

There are a plethora of journal apps that will likely do what you want. Moreover, now. After all Apple has done to build and advance their ecosystem, now. A journal app. That’s the deal breaker?

Like I said, coocoo.

For me this isn’t really a red flag but it is a big omission.

And it is the ecosystem that allows it to give you all that nice suggestions etc

I also don’t know how you would handle the export with all the exercise data etc there as well.

But a lot of apples products do have export like numbers pages etc. It is still in beta for its first release, maybe it will still come
