Introducing Fern. A feel-good journalling app for busy brains.
Start your day feeling more intentional, grounded and calm.
Braindump your thoughts and create a simple list of things you want to do today. You can even change it later if the day isn’t going the way you want. No pressure. Just a quick easy way to plan your day.
- Reduces mental overload
- Reframes your day around feeling good, not doing more
- Designed for ADHD and overthinking brains
"This app was a game changer for me. I finally feel satisfied at the end of most days instead of feeling guilty about all the things I didn’t do." - Katrina
Explore your thoughts. See your growth.
Journalling has been shown to have a huge range of benefits for mental health, creativity and productivity - but it can be hard to keep up the habit, especially if you've got ADHD. Fern makes it easy and enjoyable to journal regularly.
With Fern Pro you can use AI to explore your own journal entries - helping you spot recurring themes, reflect on how your thinking is changing, and surface insights you might otherwise miss. Ask questions about your entries, talk through ideas, or reflect on what’s been coming up for you lately, or use the weekly insights reports to review your thoughts and progress.
Launching Soon!
Privacy policy. Your thoughts stay yours.
We know that journals can be deeply personal. While most apps hide their privacy policy, we're making ours front and centre:
- Your journal lives on your device
- We do not read your journal entries
- When AI is used, it's done so anonymously
- No advertising or tracking scripts
About Fern
Fern journal was designed and created by Katrina Watson, a neurodivergent, overthinking professional who struggled with consistently journalling for a long time. She tried regular journalling apps, but found that none quite worked how she wanted them to be or were either too simple or too complex.
Eventually in 2025 after seeing the benefits of regular journalling, she decided to build something and has been journalling ever since.
