Hi! We're sorry for the inconvenience. We did use Dropbox and iCloud previously but we also had problems with them - they were never 100% successful for all of our users. On Dropbox we had challenges with duplicate entries appearing in journals. On iCloud, we had problems with data loss. When things went wrong, these two systems were beyond our control. With our own service, we can quickly respond to changing needs and bugs that might arise. Here are some articles you could check if you want more information about the sync feature and the solutions we provide to protect our customers' data. https://bit.ly/2N7lw7Y; https://bit.ly/2KvlvbC. Thanks so much for your understanding.
I like but...

Hi! Thanks for the feedback. The subscription model is also an important decision for us...We knew it would definitely affect some customers but more importantly, it can help us to provide better service for the customers who consider keeping a diary as a lifelong habit, which is exactly we are determined to do. Thanks so much for your understanding!
Why
Loved it before but now?
*DELETED*
Added after dev response: Repeat, does not warrant a subscription. Will not subscribe. Bye.

Hello! Grid Diary 2 adopted the subscription model. This decision will help us to develop the app in the long term. And it will also help us to provide better service to the people who consider keeping a diary as a lifelong habit. Thank you so much for understanding.
Outstanding improvements
It can be easily setup to capture:
- personal agile methodology
- bullet journaling
- habit journaling
An outstanding new release. Delivering 98% of the capabilities & options i had wished the original version could do (but didn’t)
Successful building upon the analytical capabilities I loved of the original:
- multiple modular (bespoke) templates
- being able to look for behaviour trends
- clean, minimal aesthetic
And adds a whole other level (or two) of functionally into the mix, which I used to have to build into the experience manually by juggling too many templates.
This latest offering must have been designed with productivity journaling needs firmly in mind.

Pricey

This decision can help us to develop and maintain it in long terms and provide a better service to our users. Thank you so much for your understanding.
Good, but...
- A life management journal all in one place!
But:
- Perpetual payment is off putting.
- So much going on. Wasn’t the idea of the grid to keep it short, sweet and simple?
- I just bought the original grid diary, and now I’m buying it again, only perpetually?
Thanks, but no thanks.

Hi! Grid Diary 2 does have a lot of differences going on comparing to Grid Diary Classic. These changes are made based upon our research and observation of our users' needs. We are hoping that Grid Diary 2 can upgrade into a self-growth system - more than a simple diary tool. We are still trying our best to strike a balance between simple and powerful features. I'm really sorry if we haven't achieved this yet, but we will definitely improve the user experience in the future upgrades.
