Turns your screen time into a one-sentence diary. Private, local, zero-effort — your digital life, written for you automatically.
About Ambient - My Digital Diary
Ambient – My Digital Diary turns your daily screen time into a one-sentence diary entry — automatically, every night, with zero effort from you.
It watches which app is in focus (every 5 seconds), tallies time per activity, then writes a natural diary entry: "Spent most of today coding, with a side of YouTube, wrapping up at 7 PM."
PRIVATE BY DESIGN All data stays on your PC. Nothing is sent to any server, cloud, or third party. Your diary is saved as a plain diary.md file in your Documents folder — yours to keep forever.
ZERO EFFORT SETUP • Install and run Ambient in the system tray • It tracks silently in the background — no input needed • Each day, open the Diary view to read yesterday's entry • Customize app labels (e.g. "chrome" → "browsing the web") in Settings
WHAT AMBIENT DOES NOT DO No keylogging. No screenshots. No microphone. No AI cloud processing. No subscription.
Perfect for anyone who wants a quiet record of their days — without the effort of journaling.
Requires a one-time purchase. Includes a 1-day free trial.
