Well designed idea with good interface, graphics, etc.
Developer replay almost immediately to my suggestions, which made me modify the review.
Glad to know soon there will be easy to personalize the daily personal input with the user’s own background
Choices of Influence moods, reasons for a good or bad day will not be limited, and seem there will be options in the writing space.
I highly recommend this app, including paying for subscription as I did which is very well priced and good value..
I am sure it has a great future
I’ve been wanting to get into journaling for years but with little time available I wanted a journaling app that was more about how I felt and quick notes of the overall feelings rather than long meditations. This app is a dream for that, like I would have designed it for myself.
The how you felt and why quick options are a genius idea. Two taps and you have a picture of that day, genius!
I have a couple of suggestions: ability to set journaling intervals: not just daily but weekly or monthly. Also improvements on the graph view, see the bigger picture throughout the years and things like that. Also I would change the typography, but that’s just my taste.
Other than that this is THE JOURNALING APP I’ve been looking for since forever.
No accounts, no logins, no BS. Honest to god developers doing good things. I gladly upgraded to premium, the price is super reasonable.
If you want to get into journaling quick and easy, this app is the way to go. Keep up the good work guys.

Feedback like this keeps me motivated to work late hours on Punkt and further improve the app. Thank you sooo much for giving me a huge motivation boost. I'm super happy that you like Punkt and appreciate its simplicity. Many thanks for your support!Excellent UI. And a great idea. This is simple, straightforward, and gets me to actually journal as opposed to viewing it as an arduous task based on how the day went.
This is a great example of simplifying a concept down to its core components. This does only what a journaling app needs to, in the best way possible. Great work!
#1 request: iPad App! I prefer the keyboard & scribble feature of the iPad for text entry.
#2 request: Option to turn off iCloud Syncing. I see it is on automatically
i’m glad the app doesn’t charge for tracking your feelings like pretty much every journal app.
i love the font choices and overall simplicity. my only wish is that you could export all your entries as an xml file or something. i can definitely see that as something people would be willing to pay for!

Hi Luke, thank you so much for your great review. We are very happy that you like the app. Exporting data is already on our list and will be shipped in a future update. Stay tuned!It’s my first day journaling using this app and I can very much appreciate the developer being transparent in his privacy policy. I want everything to stay local. If it’s truly to be believed, it’s just like having a paper journal somewhere in my room that no one but me has access to. My first impressions are really fantastic. Who knew that it would be a joy to try to condense your day in one sentence. Also, you mention a macOS app is in development. I hope it is compatible with Mojave and up as I refuse to upgrade to Catalina as some of my apps are still 32bit!

Hi gabesean2, many many thanks for your review. We are so glad that you like the app. An iPad as well as macOS app is on our list but will take some time to make the best use of the bigger displays. Please stay tuned for future updates :)I have tried many Journaling apps and frankly failed at journaling. This app actually has me journaling more often which is a win. I love the insights from the statistics this is insanely helpful. For me there is one key feature missing. I really need iPad support. I understand why it’s iPhone first as it allows you to capture your thoughts in the moment. However, some days I like to sit downs with a cup of coffee and just lose myself in my iPad. It would be great to be able to pull this app up and journal while I’m doing that in a multi window view.

Hey, I'm so glad that Punkt helps you to stick to your journaling habits. This really makes me happy. An iPad and macOS version is already on my list and I'm currently working on that. A nice cup of coffee and iPad seems like a perfect setup to reflect your life. Many thanks for your great feedback and please stay tuned for future updates!I love this app so much. It has made it incredibly easy to journal everyday. I don’t have many negative things to say about it besides that I think their should be more features! But considering this is only the beginning, I will look forward to every update. This is my first ever review on any product, ever. I’ve loved using this. Can’t wait to see how it evolves.

Wow...this is the reason why I've started to build Punkt. I'm so happy that I can bring more and more people to journaling and make them a little bit happier. Thank you so much for your nice feedback and I'm super happy that you've started a new habit. This has made my day.
PS.: There are a couple of really exciting features in the pipeline 🤩Clean interface and simple yet pleasant to use. One snag that perhaps the developer can address in a future update: began writing my story before calling it a night, and realized it was just after midnight, so it was counting it as the following day - which meant I would either need to skip my story for the night and write the next day or vice versa.

Hi RishiNxt, I’m really glad to you like the design of the app. That’s a very good spot and I understand that this is somehow annoying. There are already plans to add stories in the past or for a specific date. Many thanks for the feedback!I love the prompts that keep it simple and sweet but help you to focus on the positive bits of your day that will matter in the long run. Just happily subscribed! Two nits:
1. I would love to add videos as well as photos to my story — most memories I want to capture and relive later are videos
2. I wish you could drop a pin on the map at an exact location of your choosing rather than just searching for a place/address — my fam and I make lots of memories at a large nearby park, and I’d love to remember where I was specifically in the park that day rather than have a pin dropped in the parking lot
Thanks and keep up the great work!
