Unpopular opinion: tracking every unexpected thing that happened to me from a paper notebook every night beats doing it in a notes app like I did for 2 years
I did the same switch about a year ago and I'm never going back. Phone notes felt fast but I never went back to read them. Something about writing it down by hand makes it stick in my brain better. Plus my phone is full of distractions so half the time I'd open it to log something and end up scrolling for 20 minutes instead. Paper keeps me focused. I still use my phone for reminders and stuff but the nightly log is all notebook now.
