Automatically add your location to new entries

In order to add your location to your entries, you first need to enable Location Services on your device if you haven’t already.

Once you have enabled Location Services you can optionally enable your location (including a map) to be added to your new entries automatically.

iOS

Go to Settings > Journals > [tap a journal] > Advanced > Auto Add Location.

macOS

Go to Day One > Settings > General and make sure the option to Auto Add Location is enabled. (Note: on macOS this is a global setting and can’t be enabled/disabled per journal)

Android

Go to Settings > Journals > [tap a journal] > Advanced > Auto Add Location.

Web

Go to Settings > Journals > [tap a journal] > Advanced > Auto Add Location.

Turning off Auto add location

If you no longer want the location and map to be added to your new entries, turn the Auto add location setting off, as described above, and then disable location services in your device settings.

To remove an existing location from an entry, refer to Editing an Entry’s Location.
