How to change your Journal streak between daily and weekly in iOS 27

Apple Journal uses streaks to help you keep track of how consistently you are writing, and iOS 27 gives you more control over the type of streak the app emphasizes.

You can choose between daily and weekly streak tracking or let Journal use its automatic option, making the feature more flexible if writing every single day does not suit how you use the app.

Changing the streak preference does not require you to create a new journal or move your existing entries.

How to change Journal streak settings in iOS 27

1. Open the Journal app on your iPhone.
2. Open the area showing your journaling insights or streak information.
3. Find the control for your current streak indicator.
4. Choose between Daily or Weekly (Automatic), Daily, or Weekly.
5. Return to Journal and continue adding entries as normal.

Weekly tracking can be a better fit if you use Journal regularly but do not want a missed day to make the streak indicator less useful.
