Best app ever!

Love to chat with my lovely characters, it helps me go through those bad days!

Not Free Anymore

I used to write a lot on this app. I loved recalling all my past memories and watching my emoji jar get filled with different emotions. It was sort of comforting. Also, receiving fun, in-character responses from my favorite characters made me feel less lonely. Sounds corny, but it’s the truth.

However, this was a year ago. Now, I can’t even enter the app. I can’t use it unless I pay. All my memories, gone. Why? Because I have to pay.

Amazing app, lots of potential…but kind of sad that I won’t be able to experience this anymore. I hope this gets sorted out and that people like me (who can’t pay for subscriptions and want an app to just feel better) get to use this without any fees or subscriptions again :’)

We understand that this change may not work for everyone, and we genuinely appreciate your understanding. **Please reach out to us directly at glimmo@zenai-lab.com.** Our team would love to look into your account, help you with your past memories, and explore what we can do to help you enjoy Glimmo again.

Can Be A Trigger for a lot of People DONT USE THIS

I’d give this 0 if I could it doesn’t give you practical support it could trigger a lot of people especially if you suffer with mental health so not get xx

Excellent app.

Glimmo offers a unique (to me) take on the AI journal experience. The ability to design your own has been a fun an interesting way to collect and reflect on my thoughts. Job well done.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for your kind words! 💜 We're thrilled to hear you're enjoying the freedom to create your own AI companion and make your journalling experience truly personal. It means a lot to us that Glimmo is helping you collect and reflect on your thoughts. Thanks for being part of our journey!

Made a mistake

Shouldn’t have gotten this app. Got it last year in the hopes that it’d help me journal better. The entire app is filled with bugs. Journal suggestion doesn’t suggest anything, the phone has phantom haptics as soon as I open the app, and the best one- cannot even report a bug or make a suggestion on the app despite there being a button. Do not purchase this. The AI companion part doesn’t feel good. Only for a day maybe. Feels way too computer-ish. Thought it’d be a natural conversation sorta thing. Anyway, I’d wish I could get a refund but I don’t think the makers are really looking out for its users.
