### 4/5 — Tolle App…

*2024-02-13, version 1.34*

die zum Nachdenken anregt und sich super eignet um sich selbst besser kennenzulernen. 5 Sterne würde sie bekommen wenn sie ne iCloud-Synchro hätte und ich die beantworteten Fragen so auch auf meinen anderen Geräten hätte..🥲

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2022-11-18, version 1.21*

Amazing app, definitely worth the premium I would like for it to have the ability to add pictures to our answers.

### 4/5 — Einfach toll

*2022-10-28, version 1.20*

Update 28.10.22es wäre toll, wenn man eine Übersicht (Kalender) hätte. Wenn man über 230 Fragen beantwortet hat, müsste man lange zurück scrollen, wenn man was sucht 🤔
Es macht trotzdem Spaß. 
Jeden Tag eine neue Frage. Es macht Spaß, sie zu beantworten und so über sich nachzudenken. Eine sehr gelungene und schöne App ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

### 5/5 — Great app

*2022-09-30, version 1.20*

I love getting to answer random questions and I also like that it shows you your answer from last year when you answer it again

### 5/5 — Nhận xét

*2022-08-26, version 1.20*

App rất thú vị, nên tải về  để trãi nghiệm

### 5/5 — Sehr zu empfehlen

*2022-08-07, version 1.20*

Die App ist wirklich super, mittlerweile ist es das erste was ich morgens mache.
Die Fragen variieren stark, manche sehr tiefgründig, andere eher oberflächlich, was ich auch top finde

### 5/5 — Rất thích

*2022-07-27, version 1.20*

App rất hữu ích cho mình

### 4/5 — Gut abgesehen vom Premium

*2022-05-07, version 1.20*

Finde die App super, die Fragen sind sehr gut ausgewählt. Gefällt mir. Eine einzige Sache ist nur leider Schade: Man kann nur eine Frage pro Tag beantworten außer man kauft sich das Premium. Zu dem kann man die App ohne Premium leider auch nicht sperren. 
Ansonsten ist die App aber perfekt.

### 4/5 — bleh

*2022-04-13, version 1.20*

Sai chính tả rất nhiều 
Nó còn hỏi mình đã thử ma tuý chưa =))))

### 5/5 — Amazing Journaling App

*2022-04-08, version 1.20*

This is definitely my favorite journaling app. I’ve been using it for almost a year now. The questions are usually very fun to answer and makes me actually take the time to think about it. 

I wish you’d also came up with an android version. I’m switching to android and I really wish I could have this on my other phone too. Not to mention how much I recommended this to my other friends, who usually don’t have an iPhone.

những câu hỏi đặt ra xoáy vào từng suy nghĩ, rất tốt và thú vị để là một nơi để nhìn nhận lại chính mình mỗi ngày.

### 5/5 — Love💚

*2022-02-28, version 1.17*

Really grateful for this wonderful app. Thank you!!💚

### 5/5 — Favorite App

*2022-02-14, version 1.17*

I love being able to journal and look back at what I wrote before. I’ve had this app for a little over a year now and I can really see how I’ve changed. It’s a great way to get to know yourself and I LOVE the prompts. Not too simple and stupid but not too difficult to answer. I really have nothing bad to say about this app!

### 5/5 — Good app

*2022-02-11, version 1.17*

just wish I can see the previous months messages

### 1/5 — Lỗi

*2022-05-16, version 1.20*

Lỗi chính tả sai nhiều thậm tệ. Toàn lỗi ngớ ngẩn mà bọn trẻ con lớp 1 cũng k sai như thế. Sai vớ vẩn. Lỗi chính tả lan tràn khắp mọi nơi. Quá tệ

### 1/5 — Seit Update - nicht mehr zu empfehlen

*2022-02-08, version 1.16*

Ich habe die App geliebt, aber seit dem Update kann nur noch der aktuelle Tag beantwortet werden und nicht mehr die letzten 5. Schade wirklich, die Entwickler haben hier einen Schritt zurück gemacht. 
Jeder hat einen teilweise stressigen Alltag und man schafft es vllt nicht jeden Tag die App zu öffnen. Daumen runter für das Update.

### 1/5 — Sudden paywall

*2022-01-29, version 1.16*

I have been enjoying this app for months and it has always allowed you to go back a certain amount of days to answer a question you missed, which is suddenly a feature that is locked behind a paywall. There was no warning that this was happening, which would have at least given me the chance to answer the couple that I had missed and try to mentally remind myself that I can’t skip a day. I am incredibly disappointed and will probably just delete the app now.

### 1/5 — Ohne Funktion

*2021-05-14, version 1.11*

Leider funktioniert die App nach dem start nicht.
Es erscheint die Feder und dann ändert sich leider nichts.

### 1/5 — Kein Start möglich

*2021-03-21, version 1.9*

Nach der Installation zeigt sich nur die Feder als Bild - Sonst tut sich nix.

### 2/5 — App lên có thêm gmail để sao lưu thông tin cũ nếu xoá hoặc thay đổi điện thoại

*2024-09-21, version 1.36*

App lên có thêm gmail để sao lưu thông tin cũ nếu xoá hoặc thay đổi điện thoại

### 2/5 — War mal besser

*2022-02-05, version 1.16*

Ich mochte die App sehr gerne, weil sie nichts gezwungenes an sich hatte. Immer wenn man Lust hatte konnte man vorbei schauen und seine Fragen beantworten. Seit dem neuen Update geht das leider nicht mehr. Ich muss jeden Tag die Fragen beantworten, sonst wird die Frage gesperrt. Jetzt muss man Geld dafür bezahlen um wieder eine Woche Zeit zu haben. Find ich sehr schade.

### 3/5 — App

*2023-06-13, version 1.27*

Some Questions are a bit to personal

### 3/5 — Not for me

*2022-11-21, version 1.21*

I’m glad there are some people getting use from this app, however I tried it for almost two weeks and garnered the following;
Once per day (what you are allowed) you open the app and it asks you a random question, such as “What is your favorite food”. You answer in a text msg format…and that’s that.  
If you want to change it, you have to upgrade. If you miss a day and want to answer it, you have to upgrade.  
That’s pretty much it.  Just a set of random questions, one per day, that must be answered on that day (or upgrade). 
I personally see little value in that…aside from a 15 second, mind-numbing experience. 
If course everyone is different, so I am glad for the people that are getting some form of satisfaction from this and wish them best luck with this app going forward.

### 3/5 — Not re is needed

*2021-05-06, version 1.11*

Looks nice. simple, it’s easy to use, but honestly my critique is that it’s really simple. Hence why it’s not five stars. Many of the responses can be a sentence at most. 

Also, if this is supposed to be like a personalized journal you can write a response (which it’s more like you get a text from a friend that likes asking random questions) you would think you could personalize the background a little.

### 5/5 — Cũng OK nha

*2025-10-13, version 1.41*

Nó như 1 ng bạn

### 5/5 — Great!

*2025-07-14, version 1.41*

This app helps me reflect on my opinions and is overall worth getting!

### 5/5 — Einfach zu Achtsamkeit

*2025-01-01, version 1.40*

Tolle App, doch wäre eine Veränderung der Fragen oder mindestens deren Reihenfolge ab Jahr Zwei ein Gewinn.

### 5/5 — Motivation

*2024-07-28, version 1.35*

This makes not only motivated to answer the questions. But makes me learn about myself due to not really knowing myself

### 5/5 — love it

*2023-12-30, version 1.32*

cute prompts, reminds you of your previous answers!

### 5/5 — App tốt, nên dùng thử

*2023-06-24, version 1.27*

Mình đã dùng app được 1 năm rưỡi rồi, và mình nghĩ nên cải thiện phần chính tả đầu tiên, sau đó là ngữ pháp của câu. Cảm giác như dịch gg ra vậy, mà tiếng Việt khác 1 từ là nghĩa cả 1 câu khác đi nhiều rồiiii. Tiếp theo mình nghĩ nên giảm bớt Yes/no questions, hoặc thêm câu hỏi cảm nhận/suy nghĩ ở phía sau để câu hỏi ý nghĩa hơn... Mình góp ý nho nhỏ vậy thui chứ mình dùng lâu rồi nên mình coi app như 1 nơi lưu giữ những kỉ niệm của mình vậy. Mãi iu <3 (đừng xoá app nha)

### 5/5 — Good App

*2023-05-26*

The questions are all different and make you think! Am enjoying the free version of the app!

**Developer response:** Hi 😊 Thanks for the nice feedback!

### 5/5 — Gute App

*2023-05-01, version 1.26*

Es gibt jeden Tag neue Fragen das ist toll. Es sind nie die selben und man kann sich sogar eine Erinnerung stellen

### 5/5 — Best FREE reflective journaling app!

*2023-03-10, version 1.26*

Hands down the most amazing journaling app I’ve ever used.. and I’ve TRIED a lot of them. Lol 

Love the widget option. It’s a great reminder because you can see the “question of the day “. 

I’ve found that it’s best to answer the questions either at the end of my day or if I feel compelled to answer it immediately. It’s such a contemplative and reflective app! 

My favorite concept of this app is that you can see a blurred version of your previous answers to the same questions but from the year prior. 

You get to appreciate your growth. 💜

~ Thank you for creating this beautiful app.

### 5/5 — This app is the cutest

*2022-12-04, version 1.21*

This app is so cute and so helpful, I love the idea of seeing how my answers will change year after year and I even leave myself notes to read for the next year. I also love the option of being able to choose what you pay monthly it’s honestly the cutest. Have got my mum, dad, mum in law, sister in law, partner and some friends to download this app❤️❤️❤️
