Summary

Apple has added a setting to iOS called “Discoverable by Others”.

The Journal app lets you record journal entries, like a diary.

This is where “Discoverable by others” comes in.

No information about which specific contacts were found is recorded, and all data remains on your machine.

Nothing is shared with other devices or is uploaded to the internet.

Apple has a generally good track record when it comes to user privacy.

All Journal data is encrypted both on your unit and on iCloud.
