marcelhagedoorn··on Show HN: Cross-platform Journal Mindwave now available for iOS and Android
Hi all, maker here My app is, finally, out in the App Stores (iOS and Android). So, l can really call Mindwave a Cross-Platform journal now. I'm super excited about that! Happy to hear your thoughts and feedback.

The iOS and Android apps are a great addition to the Telegram Bot, Slack App, Chrome PWA, and Email service already in place. So I'm wondering, what would be a great next step? Should I build a browser extension, iPad or desktop app, or any other suggestions?

marcelhagedoorn··on Show HN: Mindwave – A team journal to pursue a calm and clear mind together
I made something that might be helpful in these uncertain times.

Mindwave is a journal for teams who want to learn from the past, be present, and improve the future together. You'll share ideas, feelings, and thoughts with your accountability buddies so you can help and support each other. Mindwave works great for small (remote) teams, co-founders/co-makers, masterminds, and startups.

I've been working on it for months and can't wait to improve together with other journaling enthusiasts. Feedback and ideas are highly appreciated.

Ah, you're so right! In my country we use a different way to present pricing. Going to fix that!

Maker here. I've been an entrepreneur for 20 years. I started all endeavors with learning as the primary goal. After selling my first company, two years ago, I gained some money and time (to travel). Great! But what about all my learnings and experiences? That's all in the back of my head, fading away.

Not documenting my entrepreneurial journeys is my biggest regret! So I build a journal for myself and for everyone who wants to capture their professional journey too.

I thought having a product- and startup blog was sufficient. I was wrong. "You are not your product!" I learned this the hard way. Your product evolves. Your startup evolves. You evolve.

Now I log, write, and document for me and the future me. No marketing purpose, no judgment. I keep most stories to myself, others I share with accountability partners, or even publicly for inspiration and support.

I think I got a solid basis now, with features like a private log, a personal writing space, and an integrated Telegram Bot. But there is still a lot to learn, build, and improve.

Looking forward to any feedback and questions.
