Cinco: journaling en 5 minutos

inco is a journal that fits in ten minutes a day.

In the morning, a question and five minutes to write. In the evening, another question and five more. When the evening is done, you slide your finger over one sentence of what you wrote and mark it with a highlighter. Your journal is the list of those sentences: one line per day, short enough that you'll actually reread it.

And a time capsule: write a letter to yourself and choose when it arrives, in a month, a year or five. It stays sealed until that day. When it arrives, it opens on its own and goes to your journal.

• Two moments a day, each with its window: the morning from 5:00 to 14:00, the evening from 17:00 to 2:00. Miss one and there's another tomorrow. Nobody scolds you. • One question each time, different every day, with one word marked. Prefer to write whatever you like? Dismiss it with a tap, or turn questions off in Settings. • Five minutes you can watch go by on a single line. At zero, you can finish your sentence: no cut-off. • One highlighted sentence a day, in five marker colors. • Letters sealed until the date you choose. There's no way to open them early. • Optional reminders, off by default, at the time you want. • No accounts, no network, no ads, no tracking. Everything lives on your phone. • No streaks, no stats, no badges. Nothing to keep up. • A calm design: cream, ink and highlighter. Text that grows with your size setting, and careful VoiceOver. In Spanish and English.

For anyone who wants to write a little every day without it becoming a chore.
