  • Loved it, updated it, now hate it

    So I loved this app. I would write down what happened in my dreams on the mornings I would remember them. It worked flawlessly. However this morning, it asked me if I wanted to update to a new version to which I did. When the updated version was downloaded, I started to input the dream I had. I wrote a long, DETAILED description of the events, the story, the people, places, etc like I always do. And that’s the thing about this app. It allows me to type in AS MUCH as I want with no limit, which is nice. I am also very cautious when it comes to making sure my info is saved, so I will save my post multiple times throughout my typing process. That way, IF something gets deleted somehow, I can just go back to resuming to what had been saved LAST. This was NOT one of those times. I had saved my post MULTIPLE times while I continued to write my post. When I was done, I made sure to save the final draft....again just to be sure! And guess what happened?? NOTHING SAVED! I had written paragraphs and written such a detailed post about my dream and it’s just POOF...GONE. So disappointing and not reliable.

  • Bug and Feature Requests

    Pressing Face ID button crashes the app on iPhone Xs Max. Please fix. I’ve just purchased the in-app purchase and the feature doesn’t work.

    Also could you do what most other apps do, where when you open the application it automatically tries to authenticate you with Face ID / Touch ID without having to take any additional steps (clicking Face ID button etc.)

    Suggestions:
    • Pure Dark Mode Theme for Oled Displays / standard dark mode for others (don’t want to be blinded in the morning/night!)
    • When entering a dream, have the text be smaller (similar to how it’s displayed afterwards). When writing, the text is way too big and it would be nice to at least to be able to read the last paragraph or last couple whilst you’re still writing you dream without having to scroll up through the text

    Dear user, thank you for your feedback. The Face ID bug will be corrected in the next update, sorry for the inconvenience. We noted your suggestions, we will implement them in the next few updates of Capture. Thank your for helping us improve the app! Best regards and sweet dreams, Capture team.
  • AWESOME but...

    I’ve been recording my dreams for a while but I was always dissatisfied with how the app looked. This setup is perfect and cute, and it makes me want to write my dreams down more often. I quickly got the premium version and have been very please except with the “wake back to bed” feature. I actually really love the idea, but the timer doesn’t go down with my phone being off, which is sucky when I can’t have my phone running the entire night. Also, the alarms are a little bit too loud, I tried the “stay still” method, but the alarm was way too piercing and loud. I even tried picking the quietest one. I suggest no loud piano keys banging randomly. Otherwise, this app is amazing. I also suggest a help button because some things are not specific and I can’t understand them very well.

    Dear user, thank you for your feedback. As Wake Back to Bed is a new feature, we specifically appreciate feedbacks on that, so that we can make it better! We will try to adapt the sounds to make them less piercing. Regarding the phone being on, this is something we unfortunately can't avoid — other apps, like Sleep Cycle, encounter the same limitations. This is due to the way iOS works, and how Apple let third-party apps interact with the device. The phone will need to be on, and the app opened, for this feature to work. We added a clarification for that within the app. Don 't hesitate to contact us if there's something else that is not clear enough! Best regards and sweet dreams, ~Capture team
  • First and only dream App I’ll need!

    I rarely review any app or product that I use but this app is truly amazing. The interfacing of the whole thing is so beautifully put together; from the user friendly applications to the gorgeous and relaxing ever changing gradient background. I’ve just recently decided to start logging my dreams just for personal desire and I’m glad that this was the first app I found. Definitely my first and last because it is fantastic.

    The only thing that I would change, or more so expand on, are the different elements and explanations in dreams. I definitely understand that that list is endless but some elements are perfect with coinciding explanations but then some other elements are not listed as an option. Maybe it’s just me and my crazy dreams! 😉

  • Great but...

    This app is really great for me because sometimes my dreams will just be so weird and I want to write them down. Plus, being able to pick if it’s a dream or nightmare and other things is really fun. But...Why do I need to pay to get the actual results of my dreams or nightmares? I got this app just because of the reason that you can get results and stuff, but you have to pay for it. I got really disappointed because I thought this app would help me for real but it’s basically just a journal that you write your dreams/nightmares in and nothing happens...

  • I LOVE THIS APP!

    First, I’d like to say - I LOVE THIS APP! You’ve done an amazing job on the interface. It is so easy to use even for a beginner.

    I have always had a very active dream life going all the way back to the age of 4. I recall my dreams from that age as well - like it was yesterday. I love recording them in my Dream Journal and uncovering the deeper, hidden meanings.

    I just finished testing out your app with a dream I had this morning. It worked perfectly. I especially love the addition of emotions (negative and positive). Kudos!

    I do have a suggestion. Before I paid for the full version, I did a test of the Export to PDF. As soon as I saw how easily it worked, I uploaded the full version of your app. But then, I was disappointed that the interpretation (my responses and notations) did not export.

    Thus began the painful process of copy/pasting between your app and my Dream Journal in Microsoft Word. This was a total bummer.

    I can wholeheartedly understand your not wanting to share your database freely but my suggestion is, please allow our personal responses, notations, and interpretations to be exported with our dream and elements.

    My hope is to utilize your app on a daily basis for a quick noting of my dreams with the ultimate intention of exporting them to my Dream Journal on my Mac.

    I hope this makes sense! Either way, I’m very impressed and it was well worth the $2.99 I paid!

    Dear user, thank you for your feedback. As mentioned in the answer to your email, we will improve the PDF export function in the next update of Capture. We hope this answers your concern! Sweet dreams, Capture team.
  • My favorite app!

    As a major in psychology, I really appreciate delving into my subconscious and figuring out how my past and uncovered thoughts and feelings influence my everyday responses. This app has helped me tremendously in doing so!
    I try to log every dream I remember, even the dreams I think don’t mean anything. And what I’ve found astonishing is that even the dreams I don’t think mean anything, have certain solutions and explanations to how I feel in the waking hours.
    Every time I close the app after analyzing the dreams I have, I feel euphoric and productive. I feel like I am working towards reaching a state of mind that was seemingly impossible to reach outside of this platform. I thank the developers and the interesting yet completely accurate knowledge whole heartedly.

    I particularly love how you can attach HD images to your dreams which I feel really make you remember and feel what the dream was like for you.
    If anything, if there can be any way this app can improve, maybe allow a contact book where you log your feelings about people that you know that often appear in your dreams to assist further connections and thought.
    Otherwise, this app is complete perfection and I love the devotion the app institutes in me. Thank you again!

  • Great app

    This app is perfectly what I was looking for, especially how nice it looks haha. One thing that would make it better is if it had a "login feature" where you could save them onto your account and be able to reach them from different devices. I just started using this and there might be that feature already, but if not it would be great to add.

    Dear user, thank you for your feedback. The app is linked with iCloud, which means the dreams are automatically synchronized between different iOS devices, as long as they are connected to the same iCloud account. We hope this answers your concern! Sweet dreams, Capture team.
  • Favorite Dream Journal, but..

    Without exaggerating, I’ve tried over 10 apps for dream ‘journaling’, and without a doubt, for the money you pay and service you get, this one is the best!
    The sole reason I haven’t given this app a 5 star rating, which is does deserve, is that it crashes every time I open it on my iPad.. and yes, I know it’s an ‘iPhone’ app, but that’s the case with many applications, most common probably being Instagram. But they don’t crash when I open them on my iPad, so not sure why this one has to?
    Fix that and I would change this rating to 6 stars if I could.

  • Best dream journal

    This app is fantastic and I love the way it's so simple but so good to use. It's also fun to use, so I actually want to write my dreams down. The colours in the background are also really pretty.
    I have a couple of requests though.
    It would be good if there was a way to delete dreams. I wrote down half a dream but now I don't remember it, and it's just there and incomplete.
    Also, I would like a way to back up dreams so it can't just disappear, and I can have it on other devices too.
    And it would also be nice if you could add awkwardness to the emotions part of the dream recording.
    Thank you so much!

    Dear user, thank you for your feedback. It's already possible to edit and delete dreams — the two buttons on the bottom right of the details page. Backing-up dreams is also possible since the last version — the dreams are automatically synchronized with iCloud. For the emotions, we will add that in the next update! We hope this answers your concerns.
