Love this app! But it needs some improvements
I’ve never been persevering when it comes to jounaling; I almost always end up ditching the app I’m using and find a new one. But Reflectly somehow keeps me hooked on writing stories, adding images (or just admiring the beautiful ones that go automatically with every story), and reflecting on my day. Overall it is a great app. But it could use a number of improvements.
Firstly, the twelve hundred character limit has proven quite short for me on some days where I’ve wanted to delve a bit more into my thoughts and feelings. Furthermore, the constant Internet connection needed to use the app seems a bit far-fetched; I think it can’t be that hard to make this app work offline. Also, when it comes to choosing the mood of your day, being able to choose more than one (or simply to write your own in more than the one word allowed) would be a very welcome improvement. And, finally, some more options for the AI questions would do no harm☺️.
The app in itself is truly amazing, and adding requests like this into it I believe would make for an even better experience!Show lessMatthewEvans2018
Simplicity
I love this app because it’s very straight forward and minimally functional. Some apps try too hard to make you write or log every little emotion you were feeling throughout the day and it makes you stressed and anxious to try and thing back to these feelings you forgot you were feeling that day. I don’t write everyday which is normal for me but I feel like this app reminds me to write at the perfect times, when I’m not busy and have a little bit of downtime to type out how my day was.
The only thing that I am still having trouble understanding is the rating spread. I understand the whole idea of it, and think it’s a good one, just needs a little more information or maybe a nice info graphic on how to enhance your mood when you’re feeling down or ways to relieve anger or stressful or anxious feelings based on what you wrote that day. If you wrote that you had a great day and everything was perfect maybe incorporate that with relatable quotes or articles on how to keep your motivation up and what you can do to do so in your work and personal life. I don’t know, this is just little things I would enjoy so maybe other people would too but I do love this app it’s relaxing and helps you get out the emotions you need in a way that doesn’t take up too much time yet lets you reflect on the important parts of your day.Show lessAlexandriaMichele

I’ve never really been one to write reviews before - must be because I really love this app. But this has changed the game for me in being able to reflect on my day and journal! I’ve journaled in notebooks before but was never really consistent with it. But this has helped increase my consistency, ease of journaling, my “want” to journal, and include more details of my day - like being able to upload photos of it. I like how it asks questions to make me thing and reflect, although I don’t find all the questions worth answering, I definitely do like when I see a good question that helps me reflect! The only things I wish that were improved on this would be increasing how much you can type per section, having something to save all this data to, and idk if it’s desktop friendly, but if it’s not, then being able to use on a laptop/computer as well. But overall, I love this app and how convenient it is to journal. The hassle with journaling is being able to capture your thoughts and ideas at any given moment, meaning - having something to write on and write with. But the convenience of having this app on your phone to journal whenever really helps to simplify things and journal whenever you wantShow lessRyan Haruguchi
