Onnal
One day, one square, one line. A calm year, at a glance.
Onnal (오늘 — "today" in Korean) is a one-line-per-day diary. Tap once to leave today's mood. Type a sentence — or don't. See the whole year as a quiet grid of squares. On Sunday morning, your iPhone summarizes the week into one warm paragraph, entirely on-device.
Requires iOS 17 or later. Apple-Intelligence weekly recap requires iOS 26 on a supported device.
How it works
- Open the app, pick a mood emoji, optionally write one line.
- Tap save. That's it — no streak pressure, no badges, no judgment.
- The Year tab shows every day of the current year as a 53×7 grid. Tap any cell to read that day's entry.
- On Sunday morning, the Recap tab generates a one-paragraph reflection on the past week using Apple's on-device Foundation Models. Nothing leaves your iPhone.
- A Lock Screen widget lets you log a one-liner without unlocking the app.
What's inside
- Calendar-quiet UI in Korean, English, Japanese, Simplified & Traditional Chinese.
- iCloud sync between your own iPhone and iPad via your private CloudKit database.
- Lock Screen widget with App Intents quick-entry.
- Optional 9pm daily reminder; Sunday-morning recap notification.
- Export all entries as JSON anytime.
Privacy first
Onnal has no servers and no accounts. Entries live on your device and, optionally, in your own private iCloud database. The weekly recap runs on-device using Apple's Foundation Models — your diary is never sent to OpenAI, Anthropic, or any other AI provider.
