hibikiroku | A diary made with only the items you want to record

In a Nutshell

A personal diary service where you can decide what items to record yourself.

The Problem We're Solving

Ordinary diary apps have free-form text fields, so you can't easily look back and compare just your weight or mood from different days. Conversely, health tracking apps for weight or blood pressure make it difficult to write diary entries unrelated to those numbers. Since what people want to record varies, hibikiroku lets you combine text, numbers, multiple choice, and checkboxes to create a diary with only the items you need.

Main Features

• Customizable Items: Add, rearrange, and delete items to a single diary—combining "free text," "numbers," "single choice," and "checkboxes." Past entries remain displayed even after you change items.
• Record Everything at Once: Enter a full day's data on a single screen. You don't need to fill in every item; you can record only what you have.
• Streak Tracking: Checkbox items automatically display consecutive days and a calendar heatmap. The same system works for habits you want to break (like quitting alcohol or smoking) and habits you want to maintain (like exercise or studying).
• Trend Graphs: Number and choice items automatically become graphs, letting you track changes in just that item.
• List and Archive Views: Diary entries appear in reverse chronological order like a blog, and you can filter by year or month. Each entry has a permanent URL (permalink).
• Public and Private: You can set each diary entry as public or private. Private entries can't be opened by anyone but you, even if they know the URL.
• Reactions: Public diary entries can receive reactions using 10 different emoji. Readers don't need to log in.
• Templates: Choose from templates like "quit drinking," "weight," "mood," "medication," "exercise," "study," or "parenting," and you'll start with all the necessary items already set up.
• Export: Export all your data anytime from the settings screen.

Usage Examples

• Check off "didn't drink" or "didn't smoke" to extend your streak
• Record weight or blood pressure alongside daily entries, then view the trend in a graph later
• Use choice options like "good / normal / not great" to note your mood fluctuations
• Make exercise or study checkboxes and watch your calendar fill up
