📱 The Dad Journaling App

DadTrack

A journal that remembers the moments, the moods, and who you spent them with.

Now Available on iOS and Android!

DadTrack helps dads capture everyday moments with photos, voice-to-text, and mood tracking, then turns them into monthly recaps you’ll actually reread. Share a family timeline with your partner, tag the people who were there, and keep every memory private by default.

What's included

Eight screens from the app, as they look on an iPhone today.

Shared family timeline

Link with your partner and see each other’s entries in one threaded family timeline, with per-entry privacy. Your AI tip of the day sits at the top, and a compact, comfortable, or showcase density toggle lets you read it your way.

A composer built for busy hands

Photos, moods, people, and sharing each fold into their own card, with quick picks for the moods and people you tag most. Dictate hands-free, and anyone you name while writing gets tagged for you when you finish.

Monthly AI recaps

Each month, DadTrack writes an editorial, photo-forward recap of your journaling, with live stats, mood of the month, a tappable calendar, and shareable recap cards. Synced across all your devices.

Editorial journal entries

Open any memory in a clean editorial layout: photo carousel, mood chip, age, and a Time Travel panel that resurfaces entries from a month, three months, or a year ago right inside the detail view.

Scrapbook mode

Flip any entry into a swipeable, polaroid-style scrapbook layout made for reliving the moment. Full screen, tap to navigate, and beautifully cinematic.

Advanced search

Find any memory instantly by text, date range, mood, child, or photo, and now by person or group to pull up every memory someone was part of.

Streaks & celebrations

Build a consistent memory-keeping habit with per-child and family streak tracking. Hit milestones at 1, 7, 30, 100+ days and true monthly anniversaries, and watch the confetti fly.

Cloud backup & sync
