## About

Rosebud is a journal that writes back 🌹 Type or speak an entry and it responds in real time with follow-up questions and feedback to help you reflect. Guided journals draw on frameworks like CBT techniques and gratitude practice, and voice journaling works in 20 languages. Over time it spots patterns across your entries, tracks your mood, suggests habits and goals, and sends weekly insight summaries and daily quotes shaped by what you write. Lock entries with Face ID, Touch ID or a PIN; the company says data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Rosebud has a free plan, and a paid Rosebud Bloom subscription adds more features. Made by Just Imagine, Inc., it notes that it's not a substitute for therapy.
