Excellent journal app!

I really like this app, kinda impromptu writing without having to deal with the bells and whistles like other journal apps.

But I just wish to suggest a few features as below if they can be considered:
1. Swipe left to delete an entry
2. Sans serif font option
3. Option to set add entry using return rather than the add button

Great suggestions. Enjoy the app!

Great free app

Couple of ideas:

Allow a strike through as I use #td tag for my todo list too. But I can’t check off.
Allow editing of old notes. Mostly so I can add missed hash tags.

Response from developer

Thanks for the positive review with feedback! Your suggestions are reasonable will definitely be considered.

This is a great idea

I really like this!
iCloud sync would be really useful please.

Zen journal

Not showing date of entry

Almost perfect

Simplest journaling app with best layout. Fasted way to log anything and opens very quickly. One star deducted because there’s no way to search for past entries or edit anything after you’ve saved and moved on to the next note.

Thanks for the review! You can simply tap the question mark followed by the keyword you want to search, right in the input box. I think it’s also the fastest way to search. Sorry currently no editing yet. But will definitely think about the best way to implement it. 🙏

Good with a few UI errors

Amazing app.

The text box is made for shorter entries.
Long entries make the add button disappear.

Exellent Note Taking App!

As an entrepreneur this app is wonderful, as it provides quick and simple functionality... Everything I need and no more bundled into this little React app. Excellent. Get it.

Wonderful, simple app

Love the easy, straight to text writing process. Love the simplicity and format of it this app.
I don’t think it’s meant for very long windows of text though. I had typed out something pretty long and I couldn’t get it to save the whole thing. The screen couldn’t really fit it.
Could also use a way to close the keyboard, or maybe there is a way but I can’t figure it out lol

Thanks for the positive review! That’s some really long log :). To close the keyboard, simply tap on one of your log on the stream. The text input will expand, to a point. I’ll try to replicate your bug and see if I can squash it. 🙏

Love it!

I signed up for the newsletter when you posted your ad for the app in /r/privacy.

It is great as of now and functions as it should. Its also surprisingly small for what potential it has

I have just started using it so I will update this review if anything changes. Im still waiting for the encryption though, would be a nice thing to have

Thank you for your kind words. I hope it’s still sticking after five month... if not, please check back for the new updates.
