This app has all the features I want (good open ended prompts and a photo option) without too many options that I get overwhelmed (convoluted interface and challenging prompts). I really like using this app and feel that it helps me to focus on the positive parts of my day while developing a growth mindset. Money well spent.
This is a great app that is easy to use and backed by science. There are two notifications a day, once in the morning and once at night, to remind you to add your entry. I've recommended this app to many people and will continue to do so.
It was fine when I first installed it. Now it keeps crashing. Love the design, but the crashes are not helping in my self care. Hope to use it again once it's fixed.
I like the app. I like that you can journal on your phone every day. The most recent update has made my opinion of the app go way down. I try to journal every morning and most of the time I go through the morning reflection and it doesn't save. Incredibly frustrating.
after using this app for 6 years I'm exporting to a different app. not a single feature works properly. search, finding an old entry, notifications, saving/editing an entry, exporting still don't work properly. I can't stress enough how poorly this app works now compared to a simple text editor. I should have exported my entries years ago and saved myself this headache.
