How does the Sync Work?

Journey stores your journal entries on Journey Cloud Sync/Google Drive and keeps them up to date on your computers and mobile devices that are signed in to the same Journey account. You will always see the latest version of your journal entries, no matter where you made your last edit.

How to Add a Cloud Sync

To enable synchronization with Journey Cloud Sync/Google Drive, please sign in to a Journey account.

Android, iOS, Mac Catalyst

Go to Settings > Data & Cloud Services > Add Cloud Service.

Journey Desktop (Windows, Mac & Linux):

Go to Settings > Data > Add Cloud Service.

Web

Go to Settings > Cloud > Add a New Cloud Service.

For Google Drive Sync: Please take note that you will not be able to see your entries from Google Drive as they are stored as hidden in-app data. This is done to prevent other third party apps or people from accessing your personal journal. Journey does not have the permission to access to your Google Drive storage other than Journey's in-app data. The Journey team has no access to your journal entries as your data is stored in your Google Drive. Please refer to Google’s terms of service & privacy policy to understand how Google handles your data.

You can find Journey's privacy policy here.
