### 3/5 — More freedom to organize

*2021-07-26*

Easy to use and good concept. 

I’d like to make my own categories beside the three Adventure, Travel and Health. I have a subset of adventure goals by different regions and I’d like to be able to see the individual region only.

### 3/5 — Good but could be better

*2021-04-22*

I like the app alot, but some improvements I’d like to see (sooner rather than later) would be  1) action steps should operate like a task list where you can scratch off completed tasks as you get closer to your goals (please!!)
2) more pre loaded pictures for more hobbies/goal activities
3) more pre loaded goal ideas with action steps built in to help people gets heard start on meeting their goals (for instance, Goal: run a marathon would have an option to come with a loaded checklist of a sample training plan that could be edited, obviously)

With these three changes this app would be indispensable!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback Kellie Zephir. I will definitely pass those suggestions along to our team. - Liz

### 2/5 — Has potential

*2019-12-21*

A lot of steps to go through in order to add things. How do I put a due date and time on all the things I want to do? Like conceptually, it makes no sense. Adding a picture is also cumbersome. Ideas for bucket list items are scant.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback yungstud.  We are always working to make our apps better and better.  I will pass along your comments to our developers.  Keep watching for updates that will correct these issues. - Cheers!  Liz

### 2/5 — Great idea. Not user friendly

*2019-11-03*

This app has great potential. It’s fun and straight forward, but...

I have a project that I aim to finish is 4 years. There are 11 sub-goals. It is frustrating to have to go month by month to November 2023. Even if I edit a date, it goes back to the current month. 

The synchronization is very slow. You can’t see or edit tasks until it’s done syncing. 

Many/most of my goals don’t need a cost associated. Each task says “cost = 0” instead of omitting it. Needless noise.

**Developer response:** Hi IngoR! Thanks so much for your great feedback. We're glad you like it and agree on your points. We have a big update (1.1.9) releasing next week that has a bunch of this updated but we'll also update to remove the $0.00 cost and allow for a yearly scroll. Please check out the update and let us know if we're getting there :). Thanks! - Dane

### 4/5 — Love it

*2018-10-01, version 1.1.6*

Its amazing. I love this app but the UI could be much much better.

### 4/5 — I like the app, but...

*2018-06-25*

I like the app, but it needs an option to write notes, add links, & allow the user to be a bit more detailed with goals and steps.

**Developer response:** Hi martyrobinson, we're always looking for suggestions on how to steamline the app! Much apprecciated! - Nicole

### 4/5 — Impressed

*2018-04-15*

I’m very impressed with this app. I can keep track of my life goals but the only thing is that I tried to delete the price of my step for my goal and it wouldn’t delete.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the ❤️! Please let me know what we can do to get that last ⭐️. Have a great day.  - Dane & The Journo Team

### 2/5 — Okay

*2018-03-02*

Looks okay but is there any way you can add friends to your bucket lists? And would be better if there was more suggestions on there...

**Developer response:** Hey X Charlie07 X, those are great ideas! We'll work on something that's collaborative and we do have a lot of ideas, but not fully laid out (you see them when you start typing the goal)... so maybe we should have the option to just choose from the list. Thanks so much for the feedback 🙏

### 3/5 — Date/timeline feature needs to be more robust

*2018-02-16*

The need to scroll & scroll the dates killed it for me. This may work for near term 12-18 month goals but anything more than 2 years, you need to make it easier for me to change the year.

**Developer response:** Hey Tracy, thanks so much for that great idea! We'll work on including that! 🙏

### 4/5 — Great idea

*2016-11-20, version 1.1.2*

I recomend.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2016-07-15*

So far so good

**Developer response:** Hey  LLL1969, so glad to hear it! - Nicole

### 4/5 — :)

*2016-07-11, version 1.1.2*

Excellent App, Got me motivated. Would be cool if you could customise and  move around action steps so the dates are in order

### 1/5 — Not worth it.

*2024-09-10*

Not worth it.  Needs better organization of function

### 1/5 — Still in development mode

*2020-09-16*

I feel bad giving 1 star, but the app doesn’t work and it really seems like the app I’m looking for from the descriptions.

I clicked to sign up with Facebook and it states I don’t have access as the app is still ‘in development mode’ - which is confusing since there’s a lot of reviews.

I went to fill in my details manually, and just as I completed all of the details, the app closed itself and I had to start from scratch.

I’m doing this on an iPad, so I’m not sure whether that’s an issue.

Will be very happy to change to the review if I’m able to gain access at a later date 😁

### 1/5 — Awful, Couldn’t even use the app

*2020-07-12*

I have never used any sort of bucket list app before and this app wouldn’t let me sign up with any of my emails. Everytime I tried to sign up it said I already have an account even though I know for a fact I have never even made a bucket list before. I then tried to login but there wasn’t a “forgot password” button anywhere it only proceeded to tell me to login through Facebook. I then tried to login to Facebook but it was saying that Facebook won’t let me login. Super frustrated.

**Developer response:** Hi thatviolinisist, we're sorry about the hiccup. That rare sign-up outage has now been fixed! Would you please try again so you can fully see what we've built for you?! Again, sorry for the hassle but we're back to normal now! Thanks, Liz

### 1/5 — Useless App

*2019-06-24, version 1.1.8*

Setting up a bucket list is more work then it needs to be.

**Developer response:** Hi  coldhome, thanks for your feedback. Feel free to let us know how we can make this a 5-star experience for you! Best, Nicole

### 1/5 — Spammers

*2018-03-25, version 1.1.6*

Worst app and interface, also without seeking any permission they start spamming you on your email.

### 1/5 — Deleted

*2018-03-04*

Won’t open without granting push notifications. Deleted.

**Developer response:** Hey akbirder! So sorry for the bug here. We're looking into it because you can easily hit 'no' and carry on without getting push notifications. 🙏

### 1/5 — Totally Broken

*2018-01-15*

This is totally broken! Sounds like a great app but I registered without Facebook with a new email I setup yesterday to avoid spam and it says I already exist! Not at all possible! Fix it, get back to me and I might use it and change my vote :)

**Developer response:** Ugh... So sorry Just A Machine. We're working on this as we speak and it'll be updated soon. I'll respond again then. In the meantime, enjoy the ride! 🙏

Hi again Just A Machine, can you shoot me a message at ann@journohq.com with your account info? We'd like to make this right!

### 1/5 — Useless

*2016-02-06*

Can't sign in with FB and it says my email address is already in use which it can't be as I've never used it! Pointless!

### 1/5 — Well that's half an hour I won't get back!

*2016-02-05*

Disappointing. 
Wouldn't let me sign up using Facebook as app is still in development apparently and I don't have access. And it said my email address is already in use. It's not! App looks good but I haven't been able to get in. Will just delete it I think and try another one 😕

### 2/5 — June 30 isn’t available 🤔 A bit untested.

*2024-02-19*

First day using this app and I’ve been prompted many times to rate it. That’s annoying but not too unusual these days. Also due date is marked as optional but not sure how you get no date - if you don’t set a date it sets as today’s date. I’ve now set up 3 goals, each with action steps and due dates and a picture too. This was after some trial and error however. I’m not terrible with tech but somehow kept entering a goal and then it would disappear . Went around in circles for too long considering the “tutorial” should really have explicitly instructed on how to lock things in and move to the next step- the tutorial says WHAT you can do but not explicit enough on the how. Ok the final reason for rating - which I usually wouldn’t do after using an app for all of 20 mins - was that I tried setting 30 June 2024 as a due date and it didn’t actually appear in the calendar. So that brought the rating down as did the going in circles and the annoying prompts for a rating beginning after what felt like moments of using the app. Feels like it hasn’t been tested enough - blank screens for privacy policy and terms and conditions. Doesn’t leave me feeling in safe hands.
