  • Absolutely worth it!!!!!🤗

    Are you carrying around a journal that you have to hide from your crazy siblings, or a diary that must be hidden? Penzu can fix that for you. Enter entries that no one can see unless you type in the correct password. Open it on your device anytime and write away! No one will ever read your entries and you can look back on your past entries and laugh at your opinions! This app is all you need to feel happy, full, and calm. ☺️ HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! I think Penzu is a great app that everyone should download. If I had to describe Penzu in three words it would be THE BEST APP!!!! I hope everyone else can realize this, too. Love you guys! 🤗☺️😋😊😝🌸🎀💅❤️
  • Only journaling app I’ve used

    This is the only journaling app I’ve used, and I haven’t had any issues. I use it on my iPhone and PC. I started this digital journal about 6 years ago and haven’t needed anything more than what it offers. I like the different covers, font options, and ease of use. I used to write in journals but I wasn’t consistent, and I’m a lot more consistent with the app. I realized I don’t have to go into a lot of detail or talk through everything. It’s nice to go back and read simple lists of what I did in a day, or read something funny that someone said and I wrote it down. I’ve used it both for therapy and as a simple record of events, and I can’t think of anything I need that this app doesn’t already have. I do believe I bought a lifetime access in 2018 because I don’t have any ongoing fees. I’ve never needed to call support or had a complaint. It’s been good.
  • One decade later and I’m still writing here

    It’s crazy to believe I’ve been using Penzu for over a decade. If you enjoy writing and journaling then this app is for you.
    I remember I used to use an actual physical journal when I was in school but luckily for me I discovered Penzu. I started using it when I was 17 years old- I am now 29. It’s funny to read back to what teenage me was feeling through the many pages I wrote about times of heartbreak, change and happiness. I hope to share this journal with my daughter so she knows she’s not alone in feeling all of these things during different stages of life. I plan to continue writing and look forward to rereading old entries as times passes.
