I have been building this for 17 months now.

It was something I’d built for myself because my journal was in Obsidian, my habits were in Notion, and my weight was in Samsung Health. I wanted to look back at all of them together.

I’ve kept working on the app since, and it’s now passed 6,000 downloads.

The biggest change is a complete rebuild of the iPhone app in SwiftUI. It now works offline, with syncing between iPhone and the web. I’ve also improved the habit and metric tracking and added memories for revisiting older journal entries.

I still use it myself every day. That keeps giving me reasons to work on it: something awkward when writing, something missing when looking back, another detail I want to get right.

The original idea came from hearing Jim Collins describe keeping a simple daily record in three spreadsheet cells. That became the starting point for Three Cells.
