Echologue

Echologue is a private voice journal for iPhone and Android that lets users ask questions about their own entries later. A person records a quick voice note or writes a short entry about what happened, who was there and how it felt, and the app turns it into structured memory. Later the user can ask something like what the highlights of a trip were and receive an answer grounded in what was actually recorded, rather than a generic chatbot reply. The core idea is that facts and feelings are tracked separately, so questions about events and questions about mood both return trustworthy results. The vendor describes the app as local first. The journal lives on the device, AI processing is ephemeral, remembered chat is an explicit choice, and export and wipe controls stay with the user. It is aimed at people who already dictate voice notes, reflective journalers who care more about remembering than polished prose, and privacy conscious users who want AI recall without placing a permanent personal archive in someone else's cloud. The site markets the app as free to start. The vendor does not publish paid plan prices, so what any paid tier includes or costs is not stated.
