  • Suggestion: “make people feel a little better about being productive”

    When applying Everlog as a shortcut, it suggests a 7-day average for word count. I look at this with doubt and remember the days of the week I didn’t write, which statistically brings down my average. I feel happier and more productive when I write, and seeing a higher average word count has become a mini-challenge for me lately. I think more people would feel better to see a higher average for their daily goals, so here’s what I suggest:

    using the trimmed mean as the new way to track word count for users

    so computing the mean of the middle 80% of your data, while ignoring the top and bottom 10%
    (which excludes outliers and suggests a more accurate representation of average writing habits)

    please consider! (:

  • not impressed

    this is basically a copy of the day one journaling app.
  • A real gem.

    Perhaps unimprovable. Excellent software. 👍🏼
  • So Much Potential

    So I been looking for a journaling/ note taking app that is simple, very visually appealing and provides a place to get lost in your text. This app has much of what I been looking for. I do have a few additions I would like to see. I do think a recently deleted folder is needed. The app could provide different fonts. Also the ability to upload a picture or document to a journal post would be nice. Overall I like what I see so far. I see some people make some valid points but this app is early in development and should allow for some time to see if the cost is worth it or not. I believe the price is is good for the possibilities that can come from this and features for the future. I’ve spent more on new and established apps that turned out to be not so good.

    I think the dev is doing a great job with this project and I’m looking forward to see where it goes. The potential here is something that I want to see progress over time.

    Also I would love to see a native Mac version of the app.

  • Fundamentally broken

    in a text editor, command+delete should function as a shortcut to delete a line of text. In this app, it deletes the entire note. Pressing command+z crashes the app. This combination of faults made me lose lots of work, twice.
  • Great Start. Keep it Simple

    Edit: Bumped up to four stars. There is now terrific shortcuts support, a lifetime license option and bulk export. Two small missing features. One, the ability to export all entries from a journal as a single text file vs just a CSV and/or facilitate this via Shortcuts so that there is a way to backup. And also, a trash can for deleted entries as one reviewer said is needed too.

    Original review....
    I like the premise of this app. It is wonderfully simple. However, I have two major issues that make it a nonstarter for me. First, there’s no way to bulk export all entries. You are, for now, locked in except for one-by-one exports. Second, the subscription price is too high for what’s essentially syncing and icons. It also would benefit from having Shortcuts support but that’s secondary.

  • This a great quick note taking app

    I've used this app since it was in beta. I found the developer through a twitter thread one day and decided to give it a shot. I use this app all the time to write down random things I need to keep track of day to day, or when I have an idea I don't want to forget. Having the notes correspond to the date and time I writee them is very helpful. The UI of the app is great. Definetly give this app a try if you are tired of having to using the stock notes app.

  • Passing thoughts

    Changed my life. For passive thoughts rather than active journaling. The distinction makes all the difference.
  • For anyone that wants to dump their thoughts or keep track of them.

    I love this app.
  • Skip it.

    Why a subscription? And why isn’t there any kind of text formatting? I’m not going to pay for something that my pen can do better. Too bad. I wanted it to be good.
