  • Amazing app! My favorite free Journal

    Don't get me wrong; there are some other awewome journal apps. I love this one the most because of how simple it is. Options are great, but some of us just want to rate our mood, track it, and journal. It has a great prompt that the others lack too in asking for more than just a few words.
  • Kindhearted Creators and Simplicity

    The lack of attention this app has compelled me to write a review, because it is a beautifully simple app. The features other than journalling involves a "get help" page with details on mental health assistance which is very useful. There is also their "gap fund" assistance program available for those that really need a bit of financial assistance and I think that is heartwarming.

    The app itself has no distracting ads. It's easy as setting a time and writing at that time. Currently I've only had the app for a week, missing quite a few entries. I'm hoping to make a better habit of it so I can use this in addition to therapy as I always just say "I've been fine." Which doesn't do much. For reference I'm tracking my mood and recent activity for BPD.

    Some suggestions: I always find myself wanting to edit a recent log to add onto it seconds after I did it, but I can't find how to do that. I've tried holding, swiping, and the settings menu, so I assume it isn't a thing (I'll keep looking though haha).
    Second! Aesthetic themes. Humans (me) are more likely to look at personalized pretty things so this is super optional.
    Finally, I think the graph is a bit hard to understand for me, but it's not that important. Reason is I would put "Average +2" and then "Above Average +2" or something and the circles would be in the same place on the mood line. I think they should be different.
    That's all! Thank you so much for creating a free app that helps people. I am grateful for what the app has and want the creator to know it has helped me so far. I have 14 entries and more to come. I hope to see this app grow and become more popular!

  • Wows

    Simple to use and free!~
  • Exactly what I needed

    I gotta be honest, most of these mood and journal apps feel very niche. I have so much to say and I don’t wanna spend so much time trying to categorize my moods.

    If you have deep feelings and thoughts, this app is for you. First of all, love that this app is free with no subscription model. No ads either. I hate ads, and I’ll gladly pay $5 to remove ads forever, but I hate subscriptions. I downloaded this app after checking it had no in-app purchases.

    I love how it just lets you Freeform right because I don’t like prompts. And I like how you can track moods on a scale to -5 to 5. That’s so smart! :)

    Recommending this app to my friends. Keep up the amazing work.

  • Amazing App

    Every other app seems to be trying to take my money. Not that the other apps aren’t good, but they are designed around making you pay for things. This app is not like that. It is simple, but boy does it work. I could never really journal like I wanted to, but this has been a game changer. Nothing too fancy that makes it so good, but the fact that it’s simple I think has helped me stick with it. Amazing app, 10/10 one of my favorites seriously.

  • Great journaling app

    It reminds me often to journal and it’s super easy to use it just lets me start writing when I open the app. I set the number of notifications to 4 a day so I don’t actually journal every time it notifies me. I also love that it’s free and no ads.
  • love everything about it

    this app has helped me so much in the past nearly year of using it

    i've tried myriad mood journaling apps that never stuck
    but i have a thousand entries on baseline

    really simple and nice to use for quick sporadic entries or long introspections

    the weekly mood analyses are insightful and motivating

    i owe a lot to this app

  • Fantastic!

    While I await the arrival of apples journaling app, honestly this app does exactly what I wanted. I have been trying to get better at writing out my thoughts periodically throughout the day and to try to track my emotions and moods — this app has been a godsend for that.

    Couldn’t recommend anything better! Best of all, it’s free and easy to use.

  • Awesome app!

    My favorite mood journaling app by far. Simple yet in depth. I love having the option to add a photo. Really helps me organize my thoughts and moods. Two thumbs up!

    Developer Response

    Thank you so much for your kind words!
  • Great!

    Baseline is great! Been using it a couples days and really like it so far.

    I do have one suggestion, please add an option to randomize the time that the notification to journal shows up. I think expecting it to come makes my journaling more calculated, and I want it to be a real snapshot of how I’m feeling right then.

    Love the app!
