Follow the steps below to use Timeline, Journal, Search and your profile. Use Search in Today or Journal to explore supported, indexed entries in the current beta. Use the instructions below.
Review your recorded visits, routes and geolocated journal media in Timeline.
Search your journal with a question or a voice clip. Results depend on supported, enabled indexing in the current beta.
Add photos or videos to a journal entry. Photo-search indexing needs supported, enabled access and locally available photos.
Your timeline and journal are stored on your device in this beta. Sign-in and maps use online services.
Keep your wake-up time, bedtime, daily steps goal and work hours in your profile.
With your permission, Dayline records places and routes. Recording depends on the updates delivered by iOS.
Create a journal entry with a title, a note and optional media. Audio recording is still being tested in this beta; transcription depends on a supported on-device recognizer.
Tap an existing entry to open and edit it. An empty entry cannot be saved. To leave without saving, tap the x in the top left and confirm Discard this entry? when prompted.
Change device permissions in iOS Settings. Photos, Camera, Microphone and Speech Recognition appear only after the app requests them. Profile > Check Location changes the recording interval, not device permissions.
Your timeline and journal stay local in this beta. This is permanent local removal. It does not delete your server account or every copy of your data.
