# Why I build Zen Journal app

I was tired of wellness apps that treat users like products. Most of them are cluttered, expensive, and worse - they sell your raw data to third parties.

**Zen Journal is different.**

It is free, science-based, and **100% private**.

Your data is encrypted locally on your device (using your own key) and never touches a server.

I poured my heart into the immersive 3D experience because I love to use this app every single day.

It’s simple on the surface, but deep in design, careful encryption handcraftly, battle-tested on devices.

I am working to support as much device as possible such as **iOS, iPadOS, Android and tvOS, webOS, GlassOS (Meta Quest).** And improving any feedbacks from you.
