Leave a Review Prompted Journal
A fantastic little app, great value for money
I have ADHD, sometimes sitting down to journal can mean I have no idea about what’s about to go into the page, I lose my train of thought and it becomes very unproductive, having a daily prompt helps me immense.peggybluebird

We're so glad to hear it. 😍 Thank you for your sweet review!:)
I have not actually used the app yet but I still wanted to write a review. When I came across the one page in the beginning where they say a quick word about pricing my heart was warmed. I can tell the creators genuinely care about people’s mental health and did not just make this app for the money. I was so happy when they said you could email them if you could not afford it, not because I can’t afford it, but because I know that there are people out there who need this app but can not pay. It is extremely thoughtful for them to say that. I also appreciate how there are no ads. They are taking all precautions necessary for this to be a safe place for all. This is truly a blessing.Show lessLilianna_Rose_
Great App! 👍
This is only my 3rd prompt in but I’m already loving it. I’m big on journaling releasing my thoughts onto paper. But I found myself more so “too busy” to set time to myself to write, with being a working mom in 2020 🥴 ... I stumbled across this little Gem 💎 of an app. And I’m real lying enjoying it. It reminds me with a 10mins alert before to set aside some free time for myself to journal. And that’s exactly what I needed. Usually I feel to tired by 930pm when I’ve had a long day. But since theirs an alert I feel more obligated and needed to let go and release. And find a time to be truth with myself about present and past things. I love this app and I love how it’s an independent app. It such a gentle app unlike others I’ve tried in the past, real light on the eyes. A real Warm feeling. Gets an A++ in my book. I’m a simple gal, and this is right for me !!Show lessbeingzaee

We are touched to hear this. Thank you so much for your lovely review. We're so happy the app fits into your busy lifestyle and helps you find some time for yourself. 💕Good but repetitive
I’ve been using Prompted Journal since May and I have found the prompts too be quite reflective and introspective. However, it seems I have reached the end of new prompt cycle and for the last week I’ve been getting a repeat of prompts since the beginning of the journal which has been very annoying. I had to go through and delete all the old prompts just so I hopefully won’t see those questions again.
I also think it could be cool if there were some more light hearted questions because many of the prompts can be quite heavy—-“think about being on your death bed, what’s the last thing you’d say” or questions akin to that. I mean I guess there’s nothing wrong with it because these are things that are worth pondering, but at the same time I don’t want to have 4 to 5 prompts within the same week detailing my mortality. It kind of takes away the fun. I think the app is OK but could use some tweaking, especially related to repetitive prompt questions, like once I write a prompt, I don’t want to see it again.Show lessCuriosity.kills

Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback! The prompts are specifically designed to cycle so that users can reflect back on prior entries and their growth since then. It's very useful to hear how this doesn't match your journaling needs, and we will take your points into consideration. 💛 If you have any further feedback, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at support@darlingapps.com.Stop bottling up inside and write it down!
Like most people, 2020 had been a rough year for me. It started in January on my bday and it just continued to spiral down. We’re now in July and who ones what day of quarantine this is anymore. Anyways, I wanted to start journaling because I didn’t have many people to talk to and I was tired of bottling up my emotions. I can across this prompted journal and its been amazing! The prompts are great because I’ve never journaled before and I didn’t want to start with “dear diary” everyday. The prompts are different each day and it helps me thinks about the positives and negatives, the things I want to change and future goals. I have the daily reminder set up at bedtime so I can add in any extra thoughts or feelings. Its really helped my anxiety and depression.Show lessGloria M. Haro

We're so grateful the app has been a help through these tough times. Thank you for your lovely review. ❤All of my entries were lost
At first I was in love with this app, it is well made, the journal entries were fabulous, but one day I opened the app to journal and I found that every one of my entries that I had painstakingly written to be both thoughtful and well written were all gone. The app had reset without any warning so I could save them, it presented me with the same request for the monthly payment again, even though I had already paid for this month. Then it showed me the daily prompt- the same one I had gotten on my first day and already filled out. All of my hard work was lost, and yet I am still expected to pay twice for one month’s usage. I am extremely disappointed with this app, as it was once one of my favorites, but I now realize that the quality is exactly what you pay for- 99 cents a month. Obviously care and time was used to create the app, but the creators must have stopped looking for bugs in the software. I am extremely angry and frustrated at the loss of my hard work, and once again I say how disappointed I am in an app that seemed genius when I first purchased it, I loved it truly the best part of my day was reflecting on myself with it. I am truly disappointed and upset that all of my work was lost, and I want to warn anyone who gets this app that their work could be lost at any time, and none of it is safely protected.Show lessisabellakershner

Hi isabellakershner - I believe we spoke on Instagram and on email. I hope this issue has been resolved, and that you have your entries back. If you have any other issues, please let me know.Skeptical but proven wrong
I’ve gotten so many journaling apps on my iPad and phone to try to start saving paper and make it easier for me to carry stuff in my purse as opposed to a journal and pens and markers. I was scared to get this app because I thought it would be glitchy or cheap looking like other apps. Or look really good only to find out you have to pay upon opening the app or using it a few times. BUT this app is AWESOME. It’s none of those things described above. It’s cute, simple and to the point. It’s free for a trial period and then ONE DOLLAR a month. A steal. And you help out a small business. The only thing I do have to say is, the size on the iPad of the journal screen or image is a little to small for my iPad 6th gen. But it doesn’t cause Any glitches it’s just smaller in scaleShow lessskepticalbuyer77

Hi skepticalbuyer77 - Thank you for such a kind review! We haven't tailored the app for iPad usage yet, just iPhone, so that could explain why the screen is a little off. We will soon start optimizing it for the iPad. Again, thank you so much for your feedback.Great App !
I have found this app very useful. I have failed too many times at trying to write on my own. When I discovered this app my motivation and my willingness to write exceeded my expectations. It is helpful having prompts get you started and it helped with reflection. I highly recommend this for anyone who wants to reflect on their life and document your thoughts.
** I’d like to print off each month individually and keep in a binder. If the developer can come up with a way to create a PDF file using dates (set up for the month you would like to print) that would be wonderful. Right now, I have to print every entry from start to finish every time I print. Just my two cents on improvement.Show lessjasbiz27
