Support us with a donation

Your free site has too many good features. Customizable enough, but without a complicated learning curve. Loved it for 5+ years.

Having this site to write a journal and feel safe about it has helped me out of some really dark times. Thank you!

I luv monkkee. Its perfect for me and the fact that it’s free and has great features and so easy to use. So that deserves a donation, sorry it wasn’t much but seeing as the world has gone crazy and we are meant to be in isolation which means not seeing clients, but hopefully this plandemic will end soon and we can all get our lives back and earn money and be able to donate to wonderful sites as this one.

My only concern is the password feature. I’m scared if I do forget my password that I will never be able to retrieve all my entries.

This was just the right diary app I was looking for, hope this website goes on so that some good memories wouldn’t get lost.

I’ve just (re)discovered the beauty of writing my thoughts, my ideas, my emotions… I have been using this site for few days only but quickly I felt the importance of it. I love this secret place.
Thank you, Monkkee! I feed you with 10€!

Top site erg tevreden over👍

I love its simplicity. Clean, organized, efficient.

I began using this awesome website for my journal entries at the beginning of 2020. It has everything I need, is very user friendly and secure! I’m in for life, and recommend monkkee.com to anyone who seeks an amazing free online journal.
I just made my first donation, and it is so well worth it! HAPPY 2020, monkkee!!

I’ve only been using monkkee for about a month, and I’m really liking this platform so far.

I wanted a free online diary application, and monkkee fits the bill perfectly. Its simplicity has earned my respect and patronage and I hope monkkee continues to thrive.

Great job, developers of monkkee!

I just started today & made a small donation while I figure out if this is a platform I love. So far, I really like it. I’m a middle aged teacher and sometimes I just need to VENT but I don’t really need all that toxicity out in the world. I don’t need to risk ruining relationships with coworkers/students/parents, family, or friends with a public blog or social media… Handwriting hurts my carpal tunnel… I’m hoping this venue will let me RAGE privately.
So far I’m impressed with the ease of use, tagging, and simple design. I don’t really need a lot of font options and fancy covers. I just need a place to write… privately.
I’m not even saying anything anyone would want to read. I’m just old and paranoid.

when ı feel sad ı am writing here
when ı feel happy ı am writing here
when ı am crying ı am writing here.
dont believe anybody talk with yourself in here

I love the simple interface and security of the monkkee site. Really one of the online tools I keep coming back to because it is so useful. I’ve been collecting my scattered hisorical journal entries and compiling them into one safe place here on monkkee. It organizes those entries so easily that I will be able to eventually have a journal compiled all in one place! For someone who believes in the power of journaling as I do, that’s a wonderful thing. The tagging function is also great and will help me quickly find entries on certain topics in the future. Can’t say enough good about monkkee.

Monkee has been providing me with a safe, quiet place to record my thoughts and memories and I began to think that the least I could do was support them with a donation.

It’s meant a lot to me to be able to have a place where I can journal, be honest and look back on my own experiences.

Thank you, Monkee, for your good work.

I am so blessed to have on line diary i know I love it

This is the BEST private journaling site that I could find. It saved my sanity during my horrific marriage, since I was married to someone who thought it was okay to read my private written journals.

Also donating for third time. Love this site.

Love it. Keep it up!

I’m new at monkkee, but it is everything I wanted from a personal diary – it’s very straightforward, simple, secure, and without any ads and distractions. Love it! Huge thanks for an amazing tool for all of us who want to sort our thoughts. Please keep up the good work!

Thanks for a wonderful, ad free site!! Very happy to make a contribution to this wonderful project.

Have just donated you and have just made my first entry. So happy to have found you! I love the security and user friendly design aspects. I hope you won’t shut down some day… I’d be crying a lot

I am super thankful for the stress reliever session that journaling delivers to me. Thank you for the monkkee’s team for creating this website.

Great site! Simple, easy to use, and many useful features like exporting entries. I’ve been using this site for a while as a journal and it is a great way to express my thoughts.

I like the simple nature of this site. I’ve been using for a daily personal journal.

Very good app

Pretty nice just signed up. You should think about implementing a subscription model like FreeCodeCamp. Instead of a one-time payment, people should be able to sign up for a subscription where you can donate every month 5 euros(or whatever can you afford).

The service would be still free, but people who like it will be able to continually support it.

Donated 5 Euro. Worth it every few months to keep their servers running and fund future development.

Great app! If you can develop a mobile version it wold be more useful for the users .

Thank you for keeping this site free. I’m relatively new but have been using Monkkee on a daily basis and have found it pretty useful. I’m a guy who hates paying for already successful overpriced products but loves paying for free products that truly deserve it and you guys are one of them. Happy to support you. It’d be nice if in the future you could have an automatic algorithm (to keep it all still secure) keep track of stats on our entries as some other online journals do, like average time spent writing, positive vs negative word-choice proportions, etc. In any case, keep it up!

Monkkee is just what I was looking for, in order to keep a XXI century private journal. Also, I appreciate the non-mobile app approach. I love you so much, Monkkee Makers <3

Thanks for keeping my notes secure and easily accessible

Sometime you do not need to share with everyone your personal information and I wanted something practical

This is the second year of using Monkkee. Love it. I use it as a diary and for adding general ideas and musings. I don’t usually donate, but very happy to in this case.

Thanks so much for creating an online journal option with client-side encryption. Having a space to express and privately sort through my thoughts is very valuable. Happy to make this donation and plan to make more – thank you!

I am not a lot of a writer, nor am I a day-to-day diary person. But I feel safe knowing that Monkkee is always there for me day and night. Secure, private, with no distractions, no publicity. This site is a perfect place for a secret introvert. I gave it 20 EUR. I’m paying more for things I don’t need. Why wouldn’t I give this well deserved reward for something that really makes my existence meaningful?

I like that my journal is safe with you.
I like the explanation of how my journal is secured. (for my geeky side)
I like that I don’t have to make up a title for every entry.
I like that I can read my entries like a journal, all in a single page.
I like all the export options… markdown, PDF, etc.
I like the features and the simple interface.
I like the nature of your enterprise. You don’t pretend to be something or somebody else. Your goals and intentions are clear.
Thanks for all that you are and please keep up the good work!!

I think this is the first time ever I have donated money to a free software solution! So, why now?
Because Monkkee makes sense. In a world where you can trust no cloud based solutions it’s just nice to find this little quiet spot where you can be yourself. No adds, no selling my data etc.
Keep this service running and don’t grow to big or fall for the temptations of adds-money 🙂

Wow! I just found your site and LOVE IT! And how BRILLIANT for you to have a demo login so we can really see how it works and all that it offers. That is seriously awesome. Great that you keep it clean and simple – now all that needs to be done is to be the FIRST result when “journal” or “diary” is Googled. Love you guys!

Thank you,
for offering such a simple, conscient, yet highly secure online journal platform to everyone.
This must be a lot of hard work, appreciated.

this journal is the best! thank you for running it! i wouldn’t find anywhere else to keep my memories! :))

Thanks, keep up the great work.

I’ve used it for a day and like it so far. I like minimalist programs. I want it to keep notes and keep them securely and that is about it.

That’s the best online diary ! 😀 I really like the options you have in formatting the text. Keep up the good work! 🙂

I just started using monkkee! 🙂 I love the simplicity and the security. And also the name. Thank you!!

I love the security feature, the simple set up, the lack of distractions, that it’s available from any computer or device. Thank you. I appreciate your hard work.

I have tried Penzu and Journalate, which are competitors to Monkkee. Monkee is clearly the best. Penzu was OK, but does not have the formatting features that you have with Monkkee. I used Penzu for months, but then they changed their look and feel, and since it has been buggy, losing text, forcing me out of editing, and sometimes forcing me out of the app. Journalate is slow, and if you have a long post, which I often do, it loses text. In journalate it is cumbersome to look at older posts.

I love it

Just donated, and switched completely from the Journey app. I loved the experience of using Journey, but was never comfortable with their weak security (riding on top of Google Drive, with an easily bypassed passcode). Monkkee’s client-side encryption is the way to go.

I love monkkee. Please keep with the good work. These are just suggestions, but they might be useful:
– Make it easier to give you feedback, I know an app is not a good option, but maybe a facebook community or something, you deserve to be known
– If you want to improve something, it must be security. That’s your brand, that’s the reason I use it.
– Translate it to Spanish. There’s a huge audience in Spanish. I myself have Spanish as mi native language. Contact me if you’d like an expericed translator (el español es mi lengua nativa, así que puedo ayudarles, en caso de que estén interesados)

Such a simple and secure site. Easy to use. Was glad to get the opportunity to donate as a way of saying thanks for the service. Will do so again as time goes on.

Decided to start an online journal and based on a google search for free services, opted to choose monkkee (although they’re not at the top of the search). Like the simple approach and am willing to make donations to keep the service ad-free.

Thanks for providing client-side encryption!

i love monkkee so far. i have just started using it but the fact that everything is secure and no one else can see it is a wonderful feature. it nice to be able to type and rant and not have anyone be able to see it and comment on it. GREAT JOB keep up the good work and the secure aspect of this website
