More than disappointed
I had been using this for years but their tech support has totally failed. First they wouldn’t print to pdf then I couldn’t enter a cover photo but NOW I have weeks of journal and photos that just disappeared! I cannot get this back. Do not buy this.
Poor service
App just ok and expensive. It is impossible to transfer maps to friend, the map is accurate on the App but completely inaccurate when transferring. Absolutely NO service from the company so I asked for refund.
Viewing Journals on website (by others) is broken and not being fixed
As of the date I write this, trying to view journals (by others) on the web - across mobile/desktop, on different browsers and operating systems - is broken (giving a 502 error) and has been for two days now. No sign it is being fixed.
This is a sign of a company with nobody at the wheel.
I recommend people abandon this app, which seems no longer to be clearly supported, while you have the chance.

Cannot print or save
I have been using this app for several years and like it in spite of the high cost, but the inability to print or save is a major problem. I have been reaching out to tech support for over a year on this issue with no response.
Unable to download as advertised
Once you are in and pay the feature which I thought was great to download a printed book of my journal will not load. No can do to PDF and says working on it. Not even sure the company exists
Could not access
The journal itself looks great but I’ve been unable to download it and despite at least 5 emails I’ve had no support or even response from Journo. Very disappointing and has spoilt my holiday memories. Not worth the money at all imo
Good, but
There was s no support despite daily emails from Journo. No responds to messages or emails. Like others I’m frustrated that i purchased an expensive six month a subscription. It is a beautiful app and I hoped it would be great journal for a long trip. So far friends haven’t been able to open my journal after I’ve shared it. Save your money.

Total rubbish
This app is a waste of time. It is clunky beyond words
Does not work on iPad in landscape!!
This is an old looking app that only works on an iPad in portrait mode. A lot of people use iPads with a keyboard. I only use apps in landscape mode with an Apple Magic Keyboard. This app was installed a promptly deleted when that was not possible. I’m not going to waste my time with an outdated and poorly designed app.

Potentially Fantastic but Poor Execution makes it Too Clunky
The only app I can find that combines videos of any length, text of any length, as many pics as you like with a map of your journey as you go. Combined with ability for others to like and comment. However, you can’t see the comments on the app, and you have to sign in to the website version to comment. Then it does sign you out properly so when you sign in again it just shows spinning wheel. No notifications sent of new content nor if comments. Many of my followers have left. THIS IS SUCH A GREAT IDEA OF AN APP, PLEASE FIX IT!

Impossible
Imp impossible to sign in. Many many many rejection errors that stated data entry incorrect with no indication of which of the five lines of data was incorrect nor how to correct it never had the opportunity to even try this app.
Mostly undead app
I tried to use this to keep a travel journal 5 years ago, and it never worked as intended. The web version of my journal has always had broken picture links, and despite multiple requests, there's never been a fix or useful suggestion. Support is nearly non-existent; I suspect it's just AI-generated responses, as their responses parrot the top results of web searches. Check out the featured travel journals on their website (if you can find it) - most of the images are broken. Also, it's crazy expensive, even if you got what's promised.

Journo pretty good
Not bad so far
Photos de plus de 2 ans disparaissent
Malgré l’abonnement payant, mes journaux disparaissent… Signalé depuis quelques semaines… silence radio..
Good for what is does, but expensive
I used Journo for a four week trip across Europe, blogging each and every day. I wanted an app with a map so friends and family knew where I was. I liked the simple journaling interface, the ability to log locations and to caption photos.
For people following the blog on a phone, the interface is a bit clumsy. The oldest entry appears first and people then have to scroll further down each day to find the newest entry.
On phones there is an icon that brings up the map to find the latest entry, but this is not so obvious. I think several followers lost interest because of this. On bigger screens the map is always visible so not a problem.
In the UK store the app costs £19.99 per month which I think is too expensive so sadly will be cancelling.

Or worth y time
I tried it out and it is not user friendly. Don’t waste your time!
Solange nutzbar hervorragend - leider überteuertes Abo nach Probezeit!
Ein großes Lob an die Entwickler.
Ich habe seit Antritt meiner Reise eine Vielzahl an Reisetagebuch-Apps ausprobiert. Alle hatten irgendwo ein massives Manko.
Entweder war es nicht möglich, die Bilder im Verlauf des Textes einzufügen oder einfach seiner Intuition zu folgen und seine Gedanken (egal wie lang Sie doch immer sein mögen) niederzuschreiben. Einige Apps baten eine Zeichen-Limit-Beschränkung. Da ich keine reine Tagebuch-App benötigte, hatte ich auch kein Bedarf an einem überteuerten Abo! Sollten die Entwickler so etwas wie ein Trinkgeld-Button hinterlegen, wäre ich nicht abgeneigt, für die weitere Entwicklung einmalig einen gewissen Beitrag zu geben.
ABER leider haben die Entwickler ein überteuertes Abo nach der Probezeit etabliert, wenn die Dauer abgelaufen ist, ich die App wieder löschen werde.
Zusammengefasst gefällt mir die App hervorragend. Sogar die einfache Möglichkeit seine Einträge mittels Weblink zu teilen ist eine simple Art und Weise mit der sogar meine Eltern klar gekommen sind!!
Aus dem oben genannten Grund, ist die App jedoch Nichts für gelegentliche Reisen!

Doesn’t work for me
I gave this try and it doesn’t seem to work for me.
First thing, I’m on my iPad and this app only works in portrait mode, that is usually non starter but I gave it a try.
I just want to upload a few photos as a test to see them show up on a map. I uploaded about a dozen from different dates and locations and never got the map function to work. Everytime I clicked the map icon, I got message saying I needed to add photos (which I did).
I will keep looking for an app to log our travels.

Not too bad, some aspects need work
It’s ok, however you need to be aware if adding images and video, that the syncing process needs to be improved. It takes so long to sync, and will only sync while the app is actively open. Until it syncs for the first time completely , you will not see it online if you share it, and you can’t export or publish.
I had to set my phone to not automatically lock, and left it on overnight to get a full initial sync.
Just something to be aware of.

Easy and beautiful
Found this app super easy to use and a great way to document our trip as we went. Love the interface!
