Create and use templates

Published and reviewed

What templates are for

Templates are useful when a user wants a repeatable journaling structure instead of starting from a blank page each time.

Examples:

• a morning reflection
• an evening review
• a weekly reset
• a recurring gratitude check-in

What to tell users

• Templates save structure and prompts, not just plain text.
• They are a good fit for routines the user wants to repeat.
• Guided prompts from the library and personal templates can complement each other.

If a user cannot find a template option

Ask:

• which platform they are on
• whether they are trying to use a library prompt or a personal template
• whether the issue is creating, editing, or opening the template

That will usually make the next step obvious.
