What would be on it?
kinda guessing the same sorta features as the Dream Journal Application i got off DV forums here. U know, automaticaly updates TOTM, allows you to update your DJ etc.
U guys list any other features...
.
As far as journals go, I would not recommend attempting to record your dreams in a phone (via text-typing, I assume). It takes too long, and you won't get as much detail in. Your recall will not improve.
If you could record it in audio on your phone, that might be useful. Of course, it'd have to have a sorting method, dates and titles at bare minimum.
wow this would be great like maybe something to achieve EILDs? maybe?
what it would be, i dont know.
good topic though :)
I dissagree!! i have been writing down my dreams in my ipod touch and my dream recall has improved. and it's alot more effective to me having it because i can take it anywhere and read it whenever and it can hold many many many thousands of dreams which is money u don't have to spend on notebooks. i'm just sayin it worked for me but to each his own:)
It would be a good Idea to have a dreamviews app fot the iphone/ipod touch. It could have features such as being able to browse the forums, join web chat, update dream journal. and having it all organized according to what your looking for in the forums. All i know is that if there was a dreamviews app, I would get it.
you can use the simple voice memo which i believe comes with the iphone to record your dreams if you don't have your journal nearby ... and (supposedly) you can use voxie - a downloadable app - to record dreams and it will even transcribe your notes for you! i plan
to try this asap!
bg...
Both the simple Voice Recorder and the Voxie automatically reocrd the time and date. The files are stored seqententially until you delete them and they sound much better than what you get on a small tape recorder. Plus I find them easier to "rewind" (dragging a slide bar) if I need to go back.
A friend of mine has tried the Voxie and said the transcription was perfect, better than Voice recognition software like Dragon.
In Voxie you can title things too, and even file them under separate categories.

Hah, I was surprised to find this thread.. :P
Turns out, I've been recreating the Dream Journal application by Banhurt for the iPhone as a side-project. I don't have any specific details like a release date yet, but I'll be sure to repost on DV when it's finished. :P
Here are some VERY unrefined screenshots of the interface. This is not finalized at all - just what I've developed so far.

i actually use the note pad on the iphone to record my dreams every morning!
It seems like it would be hard to type out an entire dream in detail on an iPod, but I can see how it would be useful if you remembered a dream when you didn't have a computer handy and you just wanted to write yourself a quick summary so you can expand on it later.
I've been using the dream journal at http://dreamjournal.net/ for a little over a year, though sporadically. I can access it from my iPod touch 1st Gen when in wifi spot so I can then record as usual. I'd like to see it as a true app for the ipod/iphone though. I'ts free and tracks stats over time like type of dream, recurring themes, scenes, symbols and offers loose interpretation which you can use if it resonates with your own ideas/feelings. I haven't found anything I like as much at this point.
i'm still looking for an alarm that beeps only for a minute before turning it self off.... any suggestions?
It should also have a built in DEILD Alarm.
Here is a simple Dream Journal application that was just released.

I am looking forward to feedback on how it can be improved, the basic version is free, and extra features can be purchased, which helps funds development.
Thanks.
that app looks great but i can't try it because i don't have the latest OS for the ipod touch Dx Lammeeeee
As announced elsewhere, I've added support for the iPad and a lot of requested features. Keep the great feedback coming! :)
It is a free update for all existing customers.
