How to see the journal drawer on iOS and macOS.

The Journal Drawer provides access to multiple journals and access to Settings.

Tap the hamburger menu (three horizontal lines) in the top-left corner, or swipe from left to right on the screen to open the Journal Drawer. Inside the drawer, you’ll see a list of all your journals:

To change the order of your journals, tap the Edit button and use the drag handles (sliders) next to each journal name to rearrange them by dragging and dropping.

For additional options, tap the meatball menu (three dots) next to a journal name:
