Our initial app, now known as Day One Classic, won numerous awards and high praise from users and critics alike. In 2016, we launched Day One 2.0, a complete redesign of the app that included powerful new features. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the years, the response to Day One has been overwhelming: Over 15 million downloads; multiple awards including App of the Year, Editor&#8217;s Choice, and an Apple Design Award; and over 200,000 5-star ratings from our dedicated users around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\" id=\"h-day-one-by-the-numbers\">Day One by the Numbers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>15 Million Downloads<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>500,000 Active Users Per Month<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Over 200,000 5-star reviews worldwide<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\" id=\"h-company-milestones\">Company Milestones<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>January 2024: <a href=\"https:\/\/dayoneapp.com\/blog\/introducing-shared-journals\/\">Launched Shared Journals<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>December 2023: <a href=\"https:\/\/dayoneapp.com\/blog\/introducing-journaling-suggestions\/\">Launched Journaling Suggestions<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>February 2023: <a href=\"https:\/\/dayoneapp.com\/blog\/introducing-day-one-web\/\">Launched Day One on the Web<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>June 2021: <a href=\"https:\/\/dayoneapp.com\/blog\/the-next-chapter-of-day-one-at-automattic\/\">Day One Acquired by Automattic<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>February 2018: <a href=\"https:\/\/dayoneapp.com\/blog\/day-one-on-android\/\">Released Day One for Android<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>June 2017: <a href=\"https:\/\/dayoneapp.com\/blog\/day-one-goes-premium\/\">Day One Premium launched&nbsp;<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>June 2017: <a href=\"https:\/\/dayoneapp.com\/blog\/day-one-encryption\/\">End-to-End Encryption launched<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>April 2017: <a href=\"https:\/\/dayoneapp.com\/blog\/day-one-book-two-months-later\/\">Day One Book printing launched<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>December 2016: 2016 \u201cBest of the App Store\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>February 2016: Mac &amp; iOS \u201cEditor\u2019s Choice\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>February 2016: <a href=\"https:\/\/dayoneapp.com\/blog\/introducing-day-one-2\/\">Day One 2.0 launched<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>May 2015: <a href=\"https:\/\/dayoneapp.com\/blog\/introducing-day-one-sync\/\">Day One Sync launched<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>April 2015: Day One for Apple Watch launched<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>June 2014: <a href=\"https:\/\/dayoneapp.com\/blog\/apple-design-awards-2014-winner-day-one\/\">Apple Design Award winner<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>December 2012: <a href=\"https:\/\/dayoneapp.com\/blog\/app-of-the-year\/\">Mac App of the Year<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>January 2012: <a href=\"https:\/\/dayoneapp.com\/blog\/app-of-the-week\/\">App of the Week<\/a> <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>December 2011: <a href=\"https:\/\/dayoneapp.com\/blog\/best-of-mac-app-store-2011\/\">Mac App Store #1 App of 2011<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>March 2011: Mac App Store \u201cEditor\u2019s Choice\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>March 2011: <a href=\"https:\/\/dayoneapp.com\/blog\/day-one-1-0-now-available-on-mac-and-iphone\/\">Day One for Mac and iOS launched<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\" id=\"h-press-kit\">Press Kit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Logos and product images &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/dayoneapp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/DayOne-presskit.zip\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Download the press kit (.zip)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\" id=\"h-day-one-is-an-automattic-company\">Day One is an Automattic Company<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you looking for another Automattic product logo or images?
