Epic Journal1.0.7

If you’re looking for an application that can be used to write a daily journal, a simple text editor is not likely to offer the security features you need. Epic Journal, however, can encrypt your diary while also including a number of advanced features.An Electron-based application that sports a sleek, modern layout, Epic Journal enables you to write journal entries using a wide range of styling options, insert images and links, as well as apply tags and use templates.

Saves your journal in a single, encrypted file that can be stored in the cloud

When launching the application for the first time, you will be asked to create a new journal file or open an existing one. A password is required in both cases, as AES 256 CBC encryption is used to protect the journal’s contents.Since all your daily entries are stored in a single file, you can easily take it with you wherever you go and even access it from multiple computers by storing it in a cloud location.

Offers advanced text editing features and supports templates

You can use a number of text styles when writing your journal entries, insert images and links, create lists and so on. What’s more, the application supports syntax highlighting and even allows you to create your own styles with a raw CSS editor.Moreover, it is possible to create templates that can then be inserted with a couple of mouse clicks. Since you are likely to write similar things quite often, this feature can save you a lot of time.

Modern UI that needs a few optional color themes

We liked the application’s intuitive layout, but it would be great if users had a few more color themes to choose from, as the bright white background is not that easy on the eyes.In conclusion, Epic Journal is a well-designed application for your desktop that enables you to write a daily journal and store it securely. It offers an impressive array of features and extensive customization options.
