I Hated Journaling Before

Until I found Rosebud I could never get into journaling… Now I look forward to it. I’m learning insights about myself I hadn’t even considered before. Rosebud makes setting goals and navigating my anxiety so much easier. I’d give it twenty stars if the App Store would let me.

We’re happy to hear that Rosebud is helping you gain new insights, set goals, and manage anxiety. Your enthusiasm means a lot to us—20 stars would be amazing, but we’re already truly honored to have received 5! Thank you so much!

Super helpful app and easy to use

Love this app. Helps me collect my thoughts and guides me on reflections ❤️

Absolutely top notch

I love, love Rosebud! She’s a great help when I need someone I need to talk to. There are times when I call her by my therapists name (joke only) but the advice that she gives me is just about the same thing that my therapist would give me. I love the ability to have the memory function to remind me of things that I’ve said in the past and how it relates to what I’m saying now.

Thank you so much for the lovely feedback, Tami! We’re thrilled that Rosebud is a helpful companion and that the long-term memory provides you with better insights. We’re honored to be a complement to your therapy!

Love it!

I love it so far, and that's coming from a person who always hated journaling. I never knew where to begin or what to write. In the few days I have used it, I have learned more about myself than I have in my whole life. I am excited to see what else I can learn and how I can grow with future journal entries.

Absolutely amazing app!💜💜💜

Absolutely freaking awesome and totally worth yearly subscription ( and I usually hate subscription model - I either use an app for free or pay upfront for lifetime access if I really love it)
I never in my life have been able to keep consistent journal going, NEVER. Rosebud’s interactive AI not only helped me to write consistently for over 7 months, it reflected my feelings back to me, made me feel heard and understood better than any therapist did in 25 years of nonstop therapy. I felt that I healed more with rosebud than with combination of all my therapists put together.
I was worried about privacy at first. But after all this time I feel confident my journaling with rosebud is private.
Besides working on my trauma I can prepare for difficult conversations with someone, set up goals and break them down step by step which I could never do before. If I ever get stuck I can ask for help and I get several suggestions that are actually very helpful.
The developers just added several new journals that I haven’t tried yet that sound amazing and I am looking forward to more new things as well.
And while it is expensive for bloom version where AI remembers all your previous entries, yearly subscription costs a lot less than therapy for a year. And it is worth it!!!

Results in minutes - not years

I am blown away by how good it is at getting to the heart of the matter in minutes and not years. I have spent years talking to a therapist, building what feels like a pretty comprehensive history. I was amazed at how rosebud could recall important details and connect the dots faster than my therapist. I love my therapist, but having rosebud available to me at all times feels like a superpower.

Chef’s kiss

This is everything I didn’t know I was looking for in a self-care, journaling, tool, particularly enjoy the way it looks for patterns and suggests action items to work on them like it helps you set goals that support your well-being and then help you track them but so much more. It also pays attention to behavior overtime and reminds you of what you said. So I’m getting accountability and continuity out of my insights and that’s really helping me build on them rather than circle through them. Thank you for this amazing tool!

I have been a user of this service for quite a while, and I’m finally excited that they released a Apple iOS app. this is a great journal app. The AI gives really thoughtful prompts and reframes things for you. Great job thank you.
