  • Awesome app!

    Lets start off with how AMAZING this app is! This app calms me down when i do check-ins and lets me kind of express my feelings when there is nothing to express them too. I also love the inspirational quotes i get everyday, and how i get to chose how many times a day i get them ( I personally set mine to 8 x a day)! And i love how i can view my stats , i also love how you get to CHOSE if you pay for premium and if you don't you still get let into your app and get to experience other features unlike other apps.. and to end off my review it is amazing and i definitely recommend it ! Its not like other diaries and then again keeps me calm because Reflectly asks me questions that if i was writing in my diary i would just be straight forward, wright about it and be done! But here they ask you questions so its like talking to a person but now having secrets and people talking about it and sharing things that happened to you when its none of there business( i experience that alot). Then again i love this app and I totally recommend it! Get it if you don't have it already! Thanks for reading , bye!

  • the best journaling app - ever.

    in all my years of having apple products i’ve never once written a review for an app. but this app... this... app... is the best journaling app i’ve ever downloaded. i’d been trying to get into consistently journaling for a few years now but nothing never really stuck, until i found this. i will admit, if you just have the free version it’s not worth it. paying ~$1.25 a month for this is a game changer. i write it in probably 3 times a day or whenever I’m feeling something/need to get words off my chest.
    you can track your mood, what’s making you feel that way, and emotion you’re feeling.
    it gives you daily motivational quotes whenever you need them, however many times a day you’d like.
    the user interface is BEAUTIFUL and incredibly easy to navigate. i will recommend this app to any and everybody i know.
    if you’re struggling with your mental health right now and looking for a way to help improve it, this is your sign. this app is for you. try it. it’s amazing.

  • Great!

    This app is very good at its job; and I’ve only been using it for a day. Even though you have to pay for somethings still, it’s not getting in the way of you using the app. At all really. Are use the free version and it’s still great. Like with some other apps you have to bye like pretty much the entire thing to be able to use the app and if you don’t want to buy it then it’s pretty much just getting in the way of you using the app in its entirety. Which is quite annoying (specially in the fact that that’s pretty much every app out there). I am only reading this app five stars because of what I’ve seen so far. I haven’t been using it for that long clearly, but it still seems to be working. I love how you can customize pretty much the entire thing just to your liking. It is very good with letting you speak without caring. Like when you sometimes need to just talk but you can’t talk to specific people or you just feel like you can’t talk to specific people; yes well now you can. I love how you can just speak into it and not even care. Very good tool for remembering your thoughts and how you felt. Sometimes in the moment you don’t quite remember all of the things that happened to you and that day that you would like to remember and sometimes writing it down just doesn’t quite cut it. Anyways overall this app seems to be pretty good. It’s cute, it makes me feel good about myself, and makes me feel happy overall. I would recommend this app to a friend.

  • Why you should definitely get this app

    I have always been skeptical with mental health apps just because if you think about it, how can an app help me with my problems. This app does just that! In the morning you get one simple motivating task to do so you can get your day started off right and throughout the day when you feel the need to talk about your feelings you can. At night you have a prompt to help you better understand your problems. One thing that really has helped me is the notifications. That might sound weird but during the day the app will send you quotes and personally quotes like that inspire me to be better and I really like being able to choose ones that you relate to the most. After about five days of using the app to tells you about your feelings and if your getting better or not and other things. This app has made me feel better and actually got me to keep up with journaling I really recommend this to someone who wants or need to journal but can’t keep up with one this is for you.

  • You have to pay to do anything.

    I’ve had this app since i believe January of last year, and i started heavily using it during lockdown for covid and it helped me manage my thoughts and feelings and it became easier to progressively work through them. I was most of all enjoying the morning motivation, and for the end of the day check-in, it would ask a question of the day which was my absolute favorite part. However, in this most recent update, I’m unable to do either of these things without paying for a subscription. The only thing i can do for free is look at past entries and view the quotes page. What I don’t understand is if the purpose of the app is to journal, why do i have to pay to do it? And so suddenly too? It’s like a music streaming app offering music you can listen to for free and after your 3rd song, they make you shell out some cash if you want to keep listening to music. I wish they would consider going back to the original format, im sure most people would pay for the premium subscription, and then people who are satisfied with the free version can continue to use the app. It’s disappointing because I was really enjoying this app and how it was helping me and now i’m forced to find something else that’s suitable for me mentally and financially.

  • Great app with beautiful UI, but improvements are welcome.

    I love Reflectly. The UI is absolutely gorgeous, the animations are slick, and the whole app is great to use. The check-ins are great, and the voice notes and photos are also a great addition. I love adding a photo or two that highlight my day. The app’s been doing a lot for me, and I love it. However, there are a few improvements that could make it even better. First, the iPad app is pretty bad. It works, but there’s no trackpad support, so things are still pretty awkward. The text formatting is awkward (there’s no cursor, so you don’t really know where you’re typing). I’d like to see a more advanced text editor for journaling with rich text formatting, inline image support, different (preset?) text sizes, bullet lists, the works. After all- the app costs $60/year. Apple Pencil support would be wonderful, it would be great to have a hybrid journal with typed entries in addition to handwritten entries. Support for scribble would also be a welcome improvement. Another great improvement would be the ability to add videos along with images. I’m unsure if Reflectly is already encrypted, but it would be a great idea to include the option to encrypt your journal and its entries with a custom key like Jour does.

  • Updated review!

    I reached out to the reflectly team to get help for my issue below and Nicole reached out to me with a very supportive response and was able to immediately fix the issue and get me my membership. I really appreciated this and am happy to be starting my new year with this app! Thank you again!

    I downloaded the app and it immediately asked for a year subscription, I was interested and decided to buy. It purchased and had me do my first log of my mood. I did that and everything was great! But then it asked me to create an account so I typed in my email address and it said this is already in use, maybe try signing in? So I backed out of the app to go back to the home page where i could sign in and I signed in successfully. But I checked my account and not only is my first log missing but the subscription was missing and it said "basic plan active" so I was confused and clicked on the "activate reflectly" and clicked redeem offer to see if when it connects to my apple account it will recognize I have already paid for the subscription. Well it didn't and charged me again because I got a text from my credit card saying I was charged another $63 but the app said "error occurred" and never gave me the subscription anyway! Point is I have two payments of this year subscription and no subscription. Please help

  • Lovely app! But... (suggestion)

    I love this app and has been using it for the past months! Its a nice way to jot down any thoughts or feelings into! But I will say I hate the new format since its last update or two. If you’ve never used the app then I’m sure this won’t be too much of an issue and feel free to download it if you like! But as someone who got used to and grew a liking to the older format I just wish there was an option like a switch or something that lets you switch between which format you want (the one that scrolls up and down, AKA current format, or the one that scrolls left to right) the main reason I wish for the old format is I just miss having a photo as a cover image along with the title on it, then having you tap on it to open your summary and such. With the new formatting there isn’t really a need for a cover image. I liked using cover images to sum up what I did that day like a photo of something I got at the store or somewhere I went that day etc. Aside from a cover image, I do think it takes a bit longer to scroll down and find past entries opposed to scrolling right and left. Aside from the complaints, overall reflectly is a wonderful app and I highly recommend it!

  • You guys are so awesome!

    I just wanted to say how awesome and considerate the people who made this app are. Out of everything they could’ve done, they chose to make something that would help us grow mentally and spiritually. I hope this app grows, just like the people who used it have. Great app and awesome features. I like how there are a lot of different moods, situations, and causes to choose from. I love how you guys helped me to realize how I was feeling, and how there was more to me than happy and sad. It’s really good for people who don’t have someone to talk to at the moment, and for people who just had a bad encounter. I like how it’s not complicated and the aesthetic is relaxing and makes me feel...supported? 😂 I’m not sure how to explain it, but if you don’t download this app you’ll miss out and regret it. I didn’t know if at the time, but this app would be the point in my life where I decide to be more patient, grateful, kind, not wasteful, and put myself in other peoples shoes. I’m still very very young (a lot younger than you may think) but this app inspired me to let God take control of my life. Thank you guys a lot! Make sure to take care of yourselves and don’t put too much pressure on yourselves.

  • To pay the price

    This app is so useful! I love it it can help you stay calm and can help you with your bad days. This is much better than a journal because it’s online you don’t have to buy supplies like pens pencils sticker if you want and a notebook and with a regular journal you have to worry about a marker bleeding and the quality of the paper, or even misspelling words and over all the mistakes you can make. I personal love all the aesthetics of a journal. I mean all the pretty colors, the cute stickers, and just the whole concept. This app doesn’t have that but still gives me the satisfaction of a journal! But the ONE problem for me is the price you pay 20 bucks a month about 100 bucks a year and 200 buck for when ever you use it. Now to me that’s pretty expensive. And when kids or teens like me grow up we might not have interest in stuff like this or we might be to busy and I’ll basically end up wasting 200 or 100 bucks on it. So you can still use the app but I’m just saying if you want a journal I’d rather recommend just making one yourself because the price is just too high. If they take away the price that would be the best thing ever so. Yeah
    Thank you for reading
