MindMark Project

Private journaling with gentle reflection.

MindMark is an Expo Router / React Native journal app that saves entries locally, gives gentle affirmations and reflections, and keeps the first release focused on private use.

The Problem: capturing thoughts should not feel heavy.

Local-first capture

Journal entries are stored on-device with AsyncStorage under `mindmark:journals:v1`.

Saved entries

The app has routes for new entries, saved entries, editing, reflections, settings, and onboarding.

Closed testing

The Android package is `com.tonyeasterling88.mindmark`, and the site collects tester Google account emails.

The Current Build

Expo app

The repo is `mindmark-reflection-journal`, built with Expo 54, React Native 0.81, React 19, TypeScript, and Expo Router.

Reflection rewards

Saving an entry can show an affirmation and reflection prompt, with haptic feedback on success.

Future subscription

The menu includes a disabled “Subscribe to AI Reflection” item marked as coming soon.
