Where Does Five Minute Journal Store Entries?

Five Minute Journal syncs entries through its account, with offline copies and photos in app private storage.

Last updated

Five Minute Journal centers on the account with local copies underneath. Entries sync through the login, while photos and offline drafts sit in app private storage. The phone holds convenience data, never the originals.

Confirm sync state before wiping the old phone, since offline drafts exist only locally. Photos re download on demand after signing in elsewhere. The login is the entire backup strategy, with exports as the belt and suspenders copy.
