AYearAgo.Today Online Daily Journal and Diary

Remember your year, one day at a time

AYearAgo.Today is a journal and planner that rewards you for showing up. Write about your day, keep track of habits and to-dos, and start logs for anything you want to follow over time. Most people can't remember what they were doing a year ago. You will.

Everything in one place

Your journal, planner, logs, and photos live together, alongside a community of other writers.

Daily Journal

Write about your day, privately or in public. Add photos, earn XP, and build a record you'll enjoy reading later.

Planner

Keep track of to-dos and habits, and use the calendar to see what you got done and what's coming up.

Logs

Keep a running log of anything: workouts, weight loss, daily sketches, spending. Each entry gets a date and can include photos.

Photos

Upload photos, add them to journal or log entries, and share the ones you want others to see.

Levels & Achievements

Earn XP when you write and finish planner tasks. Unlock AYAT achievements, or set your own personal records and try to beat them.

Community

Read public entries, leave comments, save favorites, and meet other people who are working on themselves.

AYAT achievements & personal bests

There are two kinds: milestones you earn automatically, and personal records you set yourself.

AYAT achievements

You earn these just by using AYearAgo.Today: publishing entries, writing, posting photos, finishing tasks, commenting, and more. Each one shows up on your profile as soon as you reach it.

  • Milestones from your first entry up to millions of words written
  • Shown on your profile and full achievement timeline
  • Includes photos from journals and log entries, not just the Photos page

Personal achievements

You make these up yourself. Pick something to track, like reps, pages read, or miles, and choose a badge. Each time you beat your record, add a new level.

  • You name it and choose the badge
  • Add a new level each time you beat your record
  • Great for fitness, hobbies, career goals, or one-off challenges

How it works

Three steps to remembering your year.

  1. Write

    Write about today. Keep it private, share it, or do a bit of both.

  2. Plan & track

    Use the planner for tasks and habits, or start a log for anything you want to measure over time.

  3. Look back

    A year from now, look back through your entries, logs, and calendar and see exactly where you were.
