privacy

Privacy Protection, Safety, and Security

We take member privacy very seriously. For this reason, LDSJournal uses high grade encryption to deliver a safe and secure journaling environment so you can feel confident in recording your personal feelings and the moments and memories of your life.  Know that the journal entries you record are private and only accessible by you.

Synchronize your LDSJournal account with your mobile phone and begin sending text and photos directly to LDSJournal.

'All About Me' Questions - record your legacy!

Family history is one of the treasures that you can leave for future generations and LDSJournal can help you share those wonderful memories. Relive the moments in your life that you want to share with your posterity and use the 'All About Me' questions to help you get back on track with journaling. LDSJournal brings it all together.

footnotes

Footnotes - it's not just text entries anymore!

Include photos, scripture links, and audio/video to help illustrate and augment your daily journal entries. Now, when you write about the big game, the dance, the piano recital, or any other special moment, you can include Footnotes to bring your journal entries to life. You can do so much more with your LDSJournal.

themes & skins

Journal Themes and Skins - make it your own!

Coming Soon - Personalize your journal by choosing one of the pre-designed skins/themes from LDSJournal. Each theme will come complete with its own color scheme and font to help you record your entries in a more personalized format. LDSJournal will reflect your personality and allow you to make your online journal your own.

archival & publication

Archival and Publication - your journal to keep!

With LDSJournal, publishing your memories to DVD or book is a reality. Recording your journal online is fun and easy, but you will want something tangible to hold onto at the end of each year. All members will have the option to create a personal archive of their LDSJournal to use offline while still maintaining all entries online.

reminder notifications

Reminder Notifications - make journaling a habit!

Every day is worth recording in your journal, but sometimes we get busy and forget to record the day's events. With LDSJournal you can set up Reminder Notifications to help you stay on task with your journal writing. Friendly notifications are sent to the email address designated by you and/or your mobile phone.  Pretty cool, huh?

autosave

Auto-Saved Entries - safe from interruptions!

We realize that journal writing can sometimes take place whenever you can find a moment, especially if you're a Mom. That's why LDSJournal will periodically auto-save your journal entries as you write to protect you from constant interruptions, power outages, or computer failure. At LDSJournal, we've got you covered.

afterthoughts

Afterthoughts - add comments about past entries while preserving your journal integrity!

Looking back, life is always 20/20. Sometimes there are lessons to be learned just from living. With LDSJournal, you can go back in time and comment about past events or include additional insights that were previously not recorded, while maintaining the integrity of your journal entries. You can't change the past, but you can grow from it.
