About MI Diaries
The MI-Diaries app is part of the MI-Diaries project from Michigan State University's Sociolinguistics Lab, which is collecting audio diaries from Michiganders ages 3+ during the lockdowns and beyond. Residents of Michigan can learn more about the project and sign up at the project website http://mi-diaries.org.
Diarists receive weekly (or monthly) emails from the team, with a list of audio diary prompts, such as "Was there a headline that stuck out to you this week?". Diarists may choose to answer any or none of these questions - you may simply tell us about your day if you wish!
Diarists may choose whether to have their stories be featured on the MI-Diaries website; each week we select a handful of stories that highlight what diarists have been experiencing that week.

Full rewrite, thanks to an amazing MSU CSE Capstone group:
- background recording!
- better navigation
- ability to upload later if on cellular (or no) data!
- in-app signup
- too many changes to list!
- Note - after the upgrade, previous diaries may not be re-playable in History; the data is still there and retained on your device, but the new player may not recognize the format of some. We're working on that portion, and if you require a specific diary audio for whatever reason, please contact us and we'll get you a copy!
