Great Journal app

I love this app for my daily diary. Very easy to use with a streamlined UI. Easy to add media to add detail and richness to your entries. Syncs perfectly between devices.

Great App, Could Use Minor Improvements

I moved over from another app and love Everlog. I mainly wanted better Apple Pencil integration and while it’s better than others, it could use some improvements. Same for default journal. I can never tell what the app will select as journal for the entry.

Overall, this is a really polished app and has good privacy posture, recommended!

I don’t miss DayOne at all

Imported almost 10 years of DayOne entries with no issues. The customizations available are great. Amazing range of import options. The lifetime purchase option supports Family Sharing! I am happy - especially happy to support an indy developer!

Best journal option

I’ve used a few, including Day One. This one of way to use, powerful, and priced right. If you like Day One, but are open to something else, give it a try.

Great Journaling App

I thought I’d already reviewed this app….but, I guess I haven’t. In Short - A great Journaling app. My main “critique” used to be not being able to export a PDF….but, they fixed that a while back. The app also looks great. No complaints whatsoever.
