Somnary: Private Dream Journal

Somnary is a private dream journal app with no account, no cloud and no subscription required. Your dreams live only on your phone, for your eyes only, and a one-tap encrypted export moves your whole dream diary to a new phone whenever you choose.

Most dream journal apps fail the same way: they lose your entries when you switch phones, paywall your own backup, demand a monthly fee, and hand you the same generic AI "interpretation" as everyone else. Somnary was built to do the opposite.

WHY PEOPLE SWITCH TO SOMNARY

• Private, no account — nothing you write leaves your device. No sign-up, no analytics, no cloud server to leak.
• Offline and encrypted — the whole dream journal works offline, and export writes a passphrase-encrypted backup file that you keep and move yourself. Backup and export are free.
• Free dream interpretation, no paywall — the Dream Decoder reads the symbols in each dream and shows its reflection in full. Free, on-device, never a teaser.
• No AI — the Decoder is a deterministic engine with a hand-written symbol library, not a chatbot. The same dream always reads the same way.
• No subscription trap — journaling, search, export, dark mode, the privacy lock and every Decoder reading are free forever, with no card. Somnary+ is optional, and it comes as a one time purchase too.

CAPTURE A DREAM THE MOMENT YOU WAKE
Your draft saves as you type and comes back if the app closes, so a dream written at 4am is not lost. Log the title and the dream, the night you dreamed it and the time, your mood on waking, sleep quality, vividness, lucidity on a 0–4 scale, a nightmare flag and your own tags. The vault is ordered by the night you dreamed, so a dream you add days later still files under its own date.

FIND ANY DREAM IN SECONDS
Search every dream's title, text and tags at once, or tap one of your own tags to filter your dream diary. Search runs on your phone and nothing about it is sent anywhere.

YOUR DREAM PATTERNS
Somnary counts your dreams, your recall streak and your lucidity rate, and shows the symbols your dreams keep returning to — all computed on-device and free.

A LUCID DREAM TRAINER THAT KEEPS GOING
Schedule reality-check reminders across your waking hours. They repeat every day, so the habit behind lucid dreaming keeps coming back instead of quietly stopping after a day.

SWITCHING FROM ANOTHER DREAM JOURNAL APP?
Import your dream journal from Lucidity, Dream Journal Ultimate, Awoken or any app that exports CSV, text or JSON: paste the export into Settings and your history, with dates, tags, lucidity and mood, lands in the vault. The import runs on your phone only; nothing is uploaded.

A PRIVACY LOCK AND DARK MODE, FREE
Turn on the privacy lock and your dream vault stays behind a lock screen until you choose to open it. Dark mode is free, because you write at 3am.

SOMNARY+ (OPTIONAL)
Somnary+ adds the Deep Decoder (how your symbols and moods connect over time), guided MILD / WBTB / WILD lucid dreaming walkthroughs, Nightmare Rescript and extra palettes. Nightmare Rescript is a gentle, self-guided journaling exercise: name the moment the dream turned, write a new ending in the present tense, and rehearse it. Every Somnary+ feature runs on your phone. Choose monthly, annual with a 7-day free trial, or a one-time lifetime purchase — the honest option for anyone tired of subscriptions. Billing is managed by Google Play; cancel anytime.

INVITE A FRIEND
Share your invite code: when a friend enters it, you both get 30 days of Somnary+ free. The invite sends only a random install ID and the code — never your dreams.

WELLNESS, NOT MEDICAL ADVICE
Somnary reflects symbols and patterns creatively. It is not therapy or medical advice, it does not diagnose or treat nightmares, insomnia or any sleep disorder, and it never claims to know what a dream "means". If nightmares or sleep problems are affecting your life, please talk to a doctor or a qualified professional.
