This app is a lot better than journal because it doesn’t have any advertisements or pop ups unliked any other journal app does

It all so has premium just in case you want to upgrade but I’m just going to stick with this app for a while and see how things go.

Very good and all going to rate this a five star especially for the nice little reminders you can set

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the kind review!

Great app!

I finished a hardcover 5 year journal and wanted my next one to be an app. This app is perfect for that. It’s easier to use than reaching for a book and it backs up in iCloud. My only request is for the timeline view, could that change to display all 5 lines of text from the date view? It currently cuts off at about 4 lines so I would have to tap on every entry to read it in that view. But the date view works perfectly. Thanks for a great app.

Helped me develop journaling habit

The minimalistic interface makes journaling so easy and relaxing. App has helped me develop a daily journaling habit. App also allows for export which is great if I want to print someday.

Exactly what I’ve needed

I’ve been looking for a simple journaling app and I’m so happy to have found this one. My only complaint: you lose your entry if go into another app without pushing save. If a text comes in while I’m writing I’ll hit the notification without thinking to see the text and I lose everything I’ve written.

Seeming limitless input length

Yeah... 5 year journal isn't about writing novels every day... but sometimes you want to and nlike the 5-6 lines given in the paperback versions this digital format (even though I've only made one entry so far) seems to have all the space I would need to capture every detail of my day, if I so desire.
