Reviews of ZenJournal

  • Great Daily Journaling App.

    I love this app. It’s so streamlined and pretty. I like having a constant flow of entries, and not breaking everything up into individual notes. Great idea. I will absolutely continue to use. Some features that I would love to see added are: A per-entry word count. Basic formatting (italics, and bold) The ability to search by date. That’s really it. Highly recommend this app. Cheers
  • onetime payment preferred

    很方便使用,不过既然是离线应用,能否有一次买断的选项呢?
  • Best minimal writing app

    This app is pure perfection. Open and type thoughts with no distractions, no need to enter titles or navigate somewhere. By the time I open another app and get to writing, I’ll have forgotten what I was going to write. This app makes it so easy to write thoughts down more often.

    My only request is to display photos in discreet mode as gray blocks. I haven’t purchased the subscription because the preview shows a sunset photo as a bright blurred orange square and I’d find that incredibly distracting to the otherwise elegant mostly monochromatic design of the app.

    Also, looking forward to the edit feature! Would love to correct small typos or add a tag to a previous thought.

    One suggestion is the ability to reply to previous thoughts. “Hindsight” or “reflection” essentially. Editing previous thoughts to add tags somewhat resolves this but replying to your own thoughts would be awesome for retrospectives!

    Developer Response

    Thanks for the 5 stars! Will definitely looking to add the edit feature. Also thank you for the idea for replying to previous thoughts, I was thinking about nested threads vs quoting previous logs. Definitely prefer the linear nature of the latter.
