Erase all my text😑

This app would be great if it does what it supposed to do. I wrote my text and the next day when I try to write a new one, the new page just overwrite the first one. Wow! This is so stupid! 🀬 So you can only keep one page and never add new one! The app goes directly to the trash!

Hi there, Sorry for your experience with the app. First of all, did you update to the latest version of the app? The latest version has already fix a bug where your entries are hidden from view, giving the misconception of entries being overridden. The app allows you to keep as much data as you like unless you run out of storage space. Have you also tried the recovery tool? Are your sure you did not perform the overwrite intentionally? You might have modified certain settings related to the date, or your cloud storage/local storage method of the app, or if you performed any manual deletion. Could you provide more information about your issue? Thank you very much. Hoping to hear your reply, as it helps improve the app for other users :) - Wern Jie

The best yet.

Simple and easy to use. I highly recommend this App.

Absolutely amazing!

I am one of those people who has always wanted to write a diary but stops after about a week, I hoped using a digital diary would be easier and so far I’m up to 3 months, it’s incredible. No adverts and easy to get into. The only minor thing I’d like added if possible is the emoji for ur mood β€œπŸ™‚β€ because I often have okay days but with the flat face it seems like I’m upset and with the happy face it seems to excited. I love the search bar for keywords brilliant to search names. 100% recommend to everyone I meet.

Love this app!

I have been looking for a journal like this. It’s convenient, simple, and easy to use. Thanks!

Works great

I’ve tried a few apps and didn’t like the ads. This is easy and works. Just what I wanted.

You're welcome! :) --------- Hi, The issue has been fixed in version 2.4.3. Can you update and check? Hope to hear your reply! - Wern Jie

Good app, bad update!

I've always really liked this app. It's a really good place to store all my personal entries, and it's been nothing but reliable. The app was perfect...until the recent update came out. My app now laggs when I scroll down through my entries so much that it takes 1-2 minutes to actually reach the bottom of my entry page, and even then, the app sometimes crashes from the lagg. Not only that, but when I'm writing a new entry and want to scroll back up to fix something, it automatically scrolls right back down to where the cursor is, which is quite frustrating. Whenever I tap an area in the entry to edit it, the cursor doesn't appear in the area I tapped, but the lowest point in the entry. Please fix these errors, and most of all, fix the lagg, as it's becoming unbearable.

Hi, Sorry for your experience with the app. I've fixed all of these issues in version 2.4.1, but I'll need more information about the lag: - Are any of the entries being downloaded? If so, it might temporarily degrade the app's performance. Once everything is downloaded, it should be fine. Is that the case? FYI, other than the lag (which no one experienced before), all the other issues you reported have already existed since the a few versions before, and again, they're already fixed in version 2.4.1. Please try updating to the latest version of the app and see if that helps. Hope to hear your reply!

Data

I have used this for more than a year the only down side is , the data can't be transported for printing or save it to other database in case we lose the previous data.

Easy to use

This is a nice app but I wish it had more daily functions, like a fillable to do list at the bottom of each page.
