Debuting alongside the illustrious iOS 17.2, the Journal app gracing your iPhone offers a sanctuary for the hallowed moments of your existence. This divine app serves as a vessel for your daily musings, activities, and encounters, drawing inspiration from the tapestry of your day – be it photos, locales, individuals, endeavors, melodies, and beyond. Furthermore, the Journal app bestows upon you personalized suggestions, guiding your hand in the art of journaling. Yet, not all who partake in its offerings find these suggestions to be a boon. For those who resonate with this sentiment, the option to quell the flow of Journaling suggestions on an iPhone exists. Fear not, for the task is simple and swift. Permit me to illuminate the way!
Turn Off Journaling Suggestions
As is customary, the Journal app on your iPhone exudes tailored suggestions drawn from your whereabouts, snapshots, harmonies, workouts, and podcasts. You retain the power to select the category from which these suggestions may spring forth. These suggestions stand as beacons, illuminating your path as you venture into the realm of journaling. However, should you find them wanting, the option to silence their chorus remains ever-present. Allow me to guide you through the process:
- Navigate to the esteemed Settings app on your iPhone.
- Scroll with purpose and alight upon Journal.
- Beneath the hallowed banner of New Category, activate the switch for "Skip Journaling Suggestions".
Henceforth, you shall craft new entries without the hindrance of unsolicited guidance. When you summon the muse to create a new journal entry, the blank canvas shall greet you promptly.
How to Disable Journal Suggestions for a Specific Category
In moments of discernment, you may find the need to silence the Journaling suggestions on your iPhone for a particular category, rather than silencing the grand chorus entirely. Fret not, for such a feat is well within your grasp. Allow me to enlighten you on the path to enlightenment:
- Launch the venerable Settings app on your iPhone and venture into the sanctum of Privacy & Security.
- Behold the sacred scroll and tap upon Journaling Suggestions.
Ah, the choices laid bare before you! Here, you may elect to silence or arouse a specific category at your leisure. Should you deem it fitting, a simple tap bestows upon you the power to Turn Off All, casting a shadow upon all categories in one fell swoop.
And thus, the deed is done! The Journaling suggestions on your iPhone now stand silent. Proceed with boldness and clarity, silencing any unworthy voices that seek to sway your hand.
