LOGGOO FOR IPHONE

How to use Loggoo

Loggoo is a private, offline-first micro-journal. Save a photo, a short Plus video, a mood, or one sentence whenever something feels worth keeping. This guide takes you through every current iOS feature.

1. Get started

The three-page welcome introduces moods, the daily timeline, and frames. It appears only on your first launch unless you choose to replay it later.

↑ Back to top
  1. Step 1: Open Loggoo and answer “how do you feel about today?” if you want to preview a mood. This choice does not add anything to your journal.
  2. Step 2: Tap “continue” or swipe to learn how moments collect into one day.
  3. Step 3: On the last page, tap “start my first day”. You can also tap “skip for now” at any point.
  4. Step 4: On Home, use the day view for today’s timeline and the month view for your calendar.

2. Capture a photo or video

The camera is the fastest way to add a moment. Photos are available to everyone; short video capture requires Loggoo Plus and supported hardware.

↑ Back to top
  1. Step 1: From Home, tap the camera button or “take a photo”. Allow camera access when iOS asks.
  2. Step 2: Tap the preview to focus, pinch to zoom, use the flash control, or switch between the front and back cameras.
  3. Step 3: Tap the shutter for a photo. With Loggoo Plus, press and hold the shutter to record a short video, then release to stop.
  4. Step 4: You can also tap the photo-library button to choose existing pictures. Select up to the limit shown on screen.
  5. Step 5: Review the result. Tap “Retake” if needed, or continue to the composer.
  6. Step 6: Optionally add a short note and choose a mood, then tap “save moment”.

3. Add a mood or note

A day does not need a photo. A mood or one sentence is enough to keep it from disappearing.

↑ Back to top
  1. Step 1: On Home, tap the mood button or “log a mood”.
  2. Step 2: Choose the face that fits: radiant, happy, calm, normal, down, or off. Loggoo adds it to the selected day immediately.
  3. Step 3: To write instead, tap the note button or “write a note”.
  4. Step 4: Enter up to the limit shown by the counter, optionally choose a mood, then tap “add to today”.
  5. Step 5: When viewing an older day, the button reads “add to this day” and the new item stays on that date.

12. Troubleshooting and privacy

Most problems come from an iOS permission, a missing local media file, or a store/iCloud connection.

↑ Back to top
  1. Step 1: Camera unavailable: open iOS Settings › Apps › Loggoo › Camera and enable access, then return and tap “Retry camera”.
  2. Step 2: Cannot choose or save photos: check Loggoo’s Photos permission in iOS Settings and try again.
  3. Step 3: No notifications: enable Allow Notifications for Loggoo, then confirm your reminder time inside the app.
  4. Step 4: Plus not recognized: confirm the correct Apple ID, connect to the internet, then tap “restore” on the paywall.
  5. Step 5: iCloud paused: make sure iCloud Drive is on, check the Apple ID shown by iOS, then return to Loggoo and use “sync now”.
  6. Step 6: A photo says it is no longer on this device: the timeline record still exists, but the private media file is missing and cannot be displayed.
  7. Step 7: Before deleting a moment, remember that “remove” is permanent. Save or share anything you want to keep first.
