A journal for whatever this is
After is a private diary and AI companion for anyone moving through loss: a breakup, the death of someone you love, a friendship that ended, or the loss of who you used to be.
What After isn't
Most apps for loss make you pick a category and follow a plan. After holds whatever you're carrying, without asking you to perform recovery on a schedule.
Not breakup-only
A breakup, a death, a friendship ending, or losing a sense of who you are: the same private space holds all of it, without forcing you to pick a category that doesn't fit.
Not gamified
No points, no streak counters, no push notifications shaming you for missing a day. Your presence is acknowledged when you show up, never demanded when you don't.
Not clinical
After is a companion for honest writing and conversation. It's not therapy and doesn't claim to be, just somewhere judgment-free to put what you're feeling, especially at 2am.
Inside the app
Home
Open to a gentle day counter, a one-tap mood check-in, and a prompt that evolves with how you've been feeling. Write when you want to. Skip when you don't.
My Story
An AI-generated line traces how you've moved over time, backed by a mood chart tied to your real entries and a weekly reflection every Monday. Milestones at day 7, 14, 30, 60, and 100 mark the distance you've covered.
Chat
Built to feel like a close friend who knows your story, not a passive listener. Every reply offers something real: an insight, a truer reframe, or comfort with actual substance. It never rushes healing and never falls back on "that sounds hard."
History
A searchable, mood-filterable archive of everything you've written. Export your full diary to PDF or plain text, generated entirely on-device, with nothing ever uploaded.
Getting started
Choose what fits closest. No wrong answers, and "something else" is always an option.
Log how you're feeling right now and write your first entry, or skip straight through.
A daily prompt and one-tap mood check-in make it easy to return, with nothing lost if you don't.
Milestones, a mood chart, and weekly reflections mark the distance you've covered, in your own words.
Privacy
"Everything you write stays on your device. Always."
No accounts, so there's nothing tied to your identity. No cloud sync, so your journal and chats never leave your phone.
There's no sign-up, no login, and nothing that identifies you tied to what you write.
Your diary is stored on your device in a local database. It is never uploaded or synced to any server.
We collect anonymized product analytics like screen views, never your journal text, mood content, or chat messages. Full details in our Privacy Policy.
Questions
No. After is a private journaling and reflection space, not a medical or mental health treatment. If you're in crisis or need clinical support, please reach out to a licensed professional or a crisis line in your area.
No. There are no accounts and no cloud sync: your journal entries and chat history are stored locally on your device and are never uploaded. See our Privacy Policy for exactly what limited, content-free analytics we do collect.
You keep read-only access to everything you've already written. New entries and AI features are locked until you resubscribe, but your past diary is never taken away from you.
Any of it: a breakup or separation, losing someone you love, a friendship that ended, losing a part of yourself, or something that doesn't fit a category at all. You're never forced to pick a box that doesn't match what you're carrying.
After is available for iOS on the App Store and for Android on Google Play.
Yes. You can export your full diary as a PDF or plain text file at any time, generated entirely on your device, with nothing uploaded to do it.
