Are free meditation journal apps worth using?

Yes, several apps offer genuinely useful free tiers. StillMind’s free tier includes unlimited journaling, voice notes, basic timer, and encryption. Insight Timer’s free tier includes the full guided meditation library (100,000+ tracks) and basic journaling. Both are excellent for beginners or anyone wanting to test meditation journaling before committing to paid features. Calm has no permanent free tier with journal access. Day One’s free tier is too limited for practical meditation journaling.
