I love journal. It’s free and has no adds. I can write stories, songs, and whatever I want in it. I can also use it as a diary and add a lock mode so you have to enter a passcode to get in. I highly recommend this.🖊️🗒️📎🖇️✒️

Love it

Helps me keep track of the movement of my relationship. Reminds me to throw out things/moods that are not positive and to grow the positive.

I love this app

This app is so fun I love this app you should play this

This app is great

I just wish you could add as much photos as you want though😭😭😭

Lock

I would love if it was available to put a different lock on this. My children play with my phone and I hate knowing they could potentially look and read what I have in my journal. #FIXIT

Review about the app Journal

Honestly this make me about my life and it makes me think super hard but honestly it’s being coming easier and I’m starting to say smart words but hey I love it this also almost makes me cry and I don’t cry that easily.

You have to get this

OK, so this is like the best show I’ve ever so I’m just filling it up and writing 1 million things on it and like this is amazing get it get🤩😁

Не сохраняет письменные заметки

Приложение как личный дневник отличное во всех отношениях, кроме основной ее функции — письма. Очень хочется запечатлять в нем свои личные мысли в письменной форме чтобы позже возвращаться в них.
Я так обрадовалась функции письма через Apple Pencil, как только она появилась на IPad, и тут же разочаровалась, что она не сохраняет половину моих записей, и весь смысл в таком дневнике попросту теряется.
Итак, прошло уже больше полугода, а эту ошибку до сих пор не исправили…

Pretty good app overall

This would be a really useful app except for one funny thing… I never know what to write! 😭😂 But obviously it’s just a me thing and it’s really a good app. I can definitely see how someone else could really get the best out of this app. Anyway, that’s all I have to say for now so bye! Have a great day! 😋✍️

感觉不错

The journal 8/2026.

I found it very easy to use very intuitive. I am writing, really dictating on an iPhone 16. I haven’t diary since I think high school end. now at year 86 in an assisted living facility. It’s been a long time and I have forgotten how helpful it is

I endorse this product

Really good app

This is a really good app, because you can express your feelings and nobody can see, because you can put a password on it, or Face ID. I can really express my feeling in this, and it can suggest ideas what to write about, as an example, places you’ve been, and you can add and state of mind and photos.
Really good app would recommend to anyone!

5 Stars to Journal!

The Journal app is a beautifully designed native experience to iOS; making every day entries feel like clearer reflections. I am so grateful to Apple for this one, for making my brightest days a little more clearer.

good!

this helps me write out my feelings in a organized way, though i wish that photos could be attached to a certain sentence or each paragraph.
