iOS 26 Features Part 42: Multiple Journals

2025/9/22 Edited to

... Read moreI'm seriously blown away by the new iOS 26 Journal app update, especially the ability to create multiple journals! For ages, I've wanted a dedicated space for different aspects of my life without having to juggle multiple apps or messy notebooks. This feature is a dream come true for anyone who loves to journal but struggles with organization. Think about it: before, all your entries were just lumped into one big timeline. Now, with multiple journals, you can neatly categorize everything. I've already started setting up a few! For instance, I have one journal specifically for my travel adventures, where I jot down thoughts about the places I visit, what I ate, and little anecdotes from my trips. It's so much easier to look back on a specific journey without wading through daily musings. Another one I'm super excited about is my Cooking journal. I'm always trying new recipes, experimenting with ingredients, and making tweaks. Now I can log all my attempts, successes, and even failures in one place. I can add notes about modifications, the reactions of my friends and family, and even photos of the finished dish. It’s like having a personal recipe book that’s constantly evolving. No more losing track of that amazing chili recipe or forgetting what made a certain cake so fluffy! Creating these separate spaces is incredibly straightforward. It's just a few taps within the Journal app, and you can name each one whatever you like. This level of personalization makes journaling feel even more intimate and tailored to my needs. I'm planning to make another journal just for work-related reflections or creative writing prompts. The possibilities are endless! This update really enhances the practicality of the Journal app. It's not just a place to dump your thoughts; it's a structured system for documenting your life in a way that makes sense to *you*. Whether you're a keen chef wanting to document your culinary journey, a traveler recounting your adventures, or just someone who wants to keep their daily reflections separate from their project notes, this Create Multiple Journals feature in iOS 26 is a must-try. Go on, give it a go and see how much more organized and insightful your journaling can become!

How I break in new journals!
I’m a journal girl! Writing things out and using paper journals is something I love to do and this is how I do it right before I actually start using them! Every journal I start has a different purpose and feel so I try to encompass that! Do you journal? What are wellness hobbies you take on?
