Web App (dayone.me)

The full “Version History” feature is not currently available on the Day One Web app.

However, for simple, immediate edits, you can use your computer’s standard keyboard shortcuts to undo or redo changes within an entry.

  • Undo: Cmd + Z (on Mac) or Ctrl + Z (on Windows)
  • Redo: Shift + Cmd + Z (on Mac) or Ctrl + Y (on Windows)

Please note: This functionality only works for changes made during your current editing session. If you close the entry, switch to another entry, or refresh the page, the undo/redo history will be reset.

Capture life’s moments, anytime, anywhere.
