Leave a Review JRNL
Amazing app and journal service
I’ve been using JRNL for over 5 years now, mostly on my computer. I love how it all syncs and is so easy to add pictures. I also love the “about me” prompts to record a living history for our children and further descendants to read about us someday :)kyfoss4
Loading pictures
I love this app! I’ve been using it for years. The conscience of being able to just add my pics or memories from my phone or my computer is great, I love being able to go back and put in entries I forgot, too. My only complaint is the tech issues with loading multiple pics.augustajames
Lost important notes
This was my first time using JRNL. I was excited and it seemed pretty straightforward. I took notes for 2 hours on something very important and personal to me, and then closed the app and was looking at something else. Apparently my entire entry was not saved. There is no auto save?? And no prompting on my first use to save my entry? I just lost several pages of notes and wasted 2 hours using this app.Show lessUser for 3 minutes
No longer my favorite journal app..
I once had rated this app 5 stars. I was using this app for a little over 7 months, and I never really looked around at other journal apps. JRNL does what it’s supposed to, somewhat. The mobile and web version are both incredibly clunky and are not easy to use without something glitching up. I did enjoy JRNL for a while, and tried to work through it’s issues, but I eventually moved to Day One Journal. I hope that JRNL improves.Show lessproxeria
Two thumbs up
Love this app! Not sure what everyone is talking about with the crashing and the lagging— I’ve been lucky, I guess. Nothing like that for me. It makes journaling so easy and convenient.Anasburg
Will there be an Andriod version???
The computer version is excellent, and I love JRNL , but please please update the IOS version and create an Andriod app!SummerLuver17
Account Activation E-mail Never Came....
Sooooo as much as I would love to leave a sparkling review for this app, I just can’t do it. Like, I literally cannot. Why? Well, it may be because I can’t even access my account. The activation email never arrived. I have only one email address that I would have used to signup for the service and I double checked all of my info before I hit the submit button.... so I’m pretty darn sure that it didn’t get sent somewhere else. I even tried resetting the password, but I haven’t gotten an email for that either! Any help would be appreciated!Show lessnariegirl
Awesome
Grate app for when you don’t feel like actually being on a computer for the website. You can lay in bed or just be on the go and get your thoughts down. Works the same.TheChildGrown
Slow and laggy as you type... and no PIN or fingerprint to protect your Journals.
If you would even both to test your own app, you'd know that as you begin typing into a new journal entry things seems to going all fine and dandy. As you maybe get 5 or 6 lines down in a single paragraphs, things just start grinding to a halt, super lag, and typing shows up late, and sometimes letters get input out of order, and then trying to select with your finger the correct place of the cursor is super laggy. I've found that as soon as you double-enter, and create a new separate paragraph, speed is then restored. What the heck is this?!?! It's so inconvenient and dumb!
Also, you have no way of securing the app. No fingerprint, no PIN. If i get up and walk away, there should be a timeout and a PIN or fingerprint lockout. And every time I open the app I should be greeted with this lock as well. My iPad is sometimes shared among individuals. I should be able to safely and comfortable hand my iPad over to someone, loan it to them, etc. and not worry about them opening my JRNL app and reading my Journal.Show lesszskags
Please add fingerprint or PW
I have recently discovered and downloaded this app. I love it, but will likely delete because of lack of security/privacy through the app. The website of course requires a PW, so why not the app? Or even better, a fingerprint scan option instead? Otherwise, its great.Eg1029384756
