Source: Sound Off

If writing down your thoughts in a journal doesn't seem like an enjoyable ability to you. You can record voice-based journal entries on your iPhone with the Sound Off app. This iOS app lets you record your thoughts into self-contained memos. The app offers daily audio prompts if you're unsure where to start.

The app promises to keep your recordings safe, with everything backed up via iCloud. It also offers cross-device syncing, and all your entries are locked up behind your Apple ID. The app itself is free, but the audio starters and journaling content will require a monthly or annual Sound Off Premium subscription.

'Pokémon Presents' broadcast to take place on Feb. 27

In honour of Pokémon Day, The Pokémon Company is hosting a pre-recorded broadcast called Pokémon Presents on February 27 at 6AM PT/9AM ET. The broadcast will last around 14 minutes long, and it isn't clear yet what the company plans to launch. 

As iMore noted, we might hear more about upcoming projects like the Detective Pikachu game sequel or Pokémon Sleep. But it could also be everything from services, goods, or other media. If you're unfamiliar, February 27 is known as Pokémon Day since it's that date in 1996 when the original Pokémon Red and Green games were launched in Japan for the Game Boy.
