Thank you for the feedback! I was nervous about posting to HN. Info is saved on the device.

  Haven't had the chance to use the app yet, but does this mean that it's locally stored/backed up on iCloud?

    Not backed up on iCloud yet. It's a very simple app right now.

  +Android and keeping this as device-only-data (aka, no upload/sync) would fetch several $ from me. If I want to be honest on the app and ensure I'm having a meaningful dialogue with past/future me, I do not want 3rd parties to have any means to see that (aka, chilling effect).

    I wouldn't mind having them uploaded via Google's backup API. It basically makes syncing settings and what not between devices painless, so if I have to move phones, or I lose mine, I'm not worrying about losing my journal and having to start over. That or a sync to dropbox or some service I can opt into would be great.
