Bug Fixes and Improvements

User reviews

Can’t submit the journal entry

Lost the entry as couldn’t save it

Simple to use, does everything that I want, great user interface, and doesn’t ask for a subscription

Nuff said!

Could use better UI

If there was an option to zoom into the dates I want to see and zoom out to see all my entries of the month, and zoom further out to see all the entries of the year, scrolling up and down the months, then zooming even further out to see all the years, it would be nice to be able to switch between dates easily. Thanks.

Extremely simple and easy to use.

I don’t normally write reviews but I think this review is worth the effort. I’ve had many diaries and software over the years and haven’t seem to use them due to the complexity of them. I find that I use this app daily without hesitation. My partner has downloaded the app too and is loving it. Well worth the price and simple layout.

Limited screen space

I love this app as a daily diary, especially with the easy time stamp.
However when I want to add lots of detail and my entry becomes long it disappears behind the keyboard and I can’t see what I am typing.
