Frequently Asked Questions
Is Sophia's browser based journal tool completely private?
Yes. Sophia is a local-first application. When you use the browser based journal tool, all your data is stored exclusively in your browser's IndexedDB using PGlite. Nothing is ever sent to a cloud server, and there is no tracking or analytics.
Do I need to create an account to use the browser based journal feature?
No account is required. You can start using the browser based journal practice immediately. Because data never leaves your device, there is no need for user authentication or logins.
Can I use the browser based journal tool offline?
