  • Easy to customize and make it yours

    I love this app because I can create templates the way I want it. That makes the journal very personal. At first I had troubles with those templates, didn’t understand how to make it work but when I finally figured it out I am impressed.
    There’s one thing that is very annoying though : when you add a text box you can’t resize the font size. You need to add text box, change font size, remove this text box and add a new one. Magically the new one will have font size you chose in the previous one. It shouldn’t work like this. You should be able to change font size in highlighted text box without need of removing and adding a new one.
    I wish there was more text editing tools as I type most of my journal content. Hand writing use the default apple tool and this one is very limited too but it’s just a matter of getting used to it. I personally don’t use it too much so no complains here.

  • I have an X phone. Won’t sync

    Please can you get my x phone to sync with 10th gen iPad. When you do I will give you 5 stars. I know it is because Apple won’t put iOS 17 on X. But surely you can adapt your own programming

    Thanks for using AJournal! iOS 17 introduced some new pen kits. So if both devices are using iOS 16 or both devices are using iOS 17, it will sync without issue. But if users use a mixture of iOS 16 and iOS 17, as soon as the user uses the new pen kit introduced in iOS 17 on that page, that exact page will fail to render in iOS 16. Unfortunately, we cannot fix this incompatibility of the iOS version in our own code. Sorry!
  • Older version had no issues, problems or glitches.

    I like the previous version because it allows you to easily copy and paste single written phrases or other items to a different page/day without having to add the entire page; and erasing EVERYTHING on the new page/day. In the new version “select all or paste or insert space“ prompts continually pop up while writing (annoying). Some hand written letters or words flash in and out as you are writing, again (annoying).
    Can the older version be installed??

    Thanks for using AJournal! We will add more stickers in the next AJournal release. AJournal supports adding photos as well. So you can save a small bicycle sticker from the web to the photo album and insert that photo for now. Please give it a try!
  • Simple planner

    I downloaded many planners before finally deciding on this one. This planner is pretty straight forward with plenty of features to get creative with it. The ability to add photos and stickers is an added bonus,however, it would be nice to toggle between months ,weeks , and days without the view resetting to the first week each time. Maybe having it set to “today” or “this week.” Suggestion for a weekly template: having that weeks month view at the top that reflects the items you have handwritten in the month calendar as opposed to just showing the events you entered. I liked that in “pencil calendar”

  • Finally an easy and effective planning tool

    After trying dozens of other planner tools, I have finally found the one that works for me and is super easy to use. I love that I can track everything to all my calendars, take project notes, and track my time without keeping a bunch of apps open or spending time watching countless videos on how to do basic functions. So happy I found this.

  • Any chance to improve the Apple Pencil toolkit?

    The app is great overall. If you are looking for an app that can gather all your plans in one place, I think this is the right one. Together with ATracker, the team make planning and tracking time for each day super easy.

    Suggestions:
    1. The current “vanilla” Apple Pencil toolkit is a bummer as the feeling of writing is not as good as those note taking apps.
    2. It’d be great if we can add more projects (more than 6). Also, adding an “archive” function for projects can be super helpful!

  • Couldn’t get add event to work

    Started off really well, set up my view and then went to add an event. Seemed like it should be easy enough. It’s the bread and butter of this app. But I double tapped in the space where I wanted it and nothing happened. I tried several times and then thought there might be and ‘add event’ button. Nope. Went to FAQ’s and it said to add an even double tap in the space where you want it and it will bring up the add event window. Went back to the app and tried again. Nothing. Then I don’t know what I did but it suddenly came up. I added an event I did this evening for a practice run but it didn’t show in the diary section of my page. I tried to double tap again but for love nor money, I could not get the ‘add event’ window up again. I ran out of patience. As a busy person I do not need this to be so difficult! I just want to add an event. So I deleted, cancelled free trial/ subscription and moved to the next app.

  • The only planner so customizable that fits my needs

    Pros: Minimalist style. Highly customizable. The elements to design your own planner template is very versatile, especially the “multiple column”, which is a genius idea. Ads are minimal. Combining with ATracker is also great.

    Cons: Some template elements have different margins. Therefore even when two elements are well aligned and snapped to the grid, the outlines of the tables/boxes inside them still won’t be aligned well. No way to align text boxes. System language for traditional Chinese has some errors (for example 周vs週).
