Your First Journal Entry
How to start journaling and what happens after your first session.
Getting started with your first entry
Tap the + button in the middle of the tab bar and choose how you'd like to journal:
- Guided Journal: a supportive, interactive session where Justly asks questions to help you reflect.
- Open Journal: express yourself freely through text, audio or video.
You can also start Morning Preparation or Evening Reflection from the Home screen.
Tips for your first entry
- Be honest. The more open you are, the more useful Justly's reflections become.
- Write about your day, a feeling, or anything you want to untangle.
- Don't worry about structure or grammar.
- When you're done, tap Finish session to see your summary.
