Good

Not the best

Privacy

I love this app! It’s so useful for venting and I love the privacy lock feature!

I wish it had a bit more but otherwise its good

Yep! Cool

Yep, pop it open. You tell it what you need it to know, and emphasize ad pics, whatever, and rock and roll back out. Very easy to use. Thank you

Writing with apple pen

Need unlimited pages when writing. Then the app would be almost great

I write everything down now

This helps me keep track of my emotions

Feature support

1. App seems to be hanging when you try to change the date on an entry.
2. No way of moving multiple entries from 1 journal to another.
3. No way of creating nested journals .e.g. sub-journals e.g. of the same category
4. No way of selecting which journal an entry should land in when created by sharing info from other apps. Should offer to choose from existing journals or create a new one.

Amazing and love it

Honestly, this is where I can say anything about myself without anyone Judging or making fun of me, I really like this app because I get to write and talk about my day and what had happened and funny moments I wanna make sure I don’t forget

Keeps deleting large chunks of handwritten entries

Not sure why it’s such a struggle to get the pencil integrated, but the app keeps straight-up deleting large chunks of entries after I save them. As an update: it’s still randomly deleting entries, and how hard is it to add lined pages?

Love this.

it really helps me get my emotions out. It’s good for when I’m mad or stressed or just need something to spill.
I find journaling, a very good coping mechanism, and this app really helps with it. Five stars I love it.

Awesome

This app is so good. When I get mad or sad or even too happy this app help me so I can write all of the real facts and show my self the problem one more time.

Thank you

You guys who made this is a smarty pants but anyway i had gave my cousin write in my jornal I said write on here because she was really mad about a situation and she felt better she wrote long and still wanted to write but I had to take away before she got in it. When I get mad I write in here and then I start actually like an angle one thing you guess need to add is when your down writing add like confetti’s saying good job talking about your feeling because some people need to hear that who is having a rough day agin thank you for reading all of thi

Apple Pencil issue

There’s like no point in using this app with the Apple Pencil, it literally doesn’t save whatever you write. Apple needs to fix this because what’s the point of using their accessories when it doesn’t work as intended with the Apple?
