### 3/5 — No editing!

*2026-08-02*

I’m frustrated with primitive features such as no editing! Please fix this .

**Developer response:** Hello Mhellison, thank you for your feedback. I truly appreciate it. You can edit or delete entries by swiping on the cell. I hope this clarifies things. If you’d like to reconsider the rating, it would mean a lot to a single indie developer.

*2025-06-23*

I honestly love this app bc it takes all of a second to write a sentence about gratitude. For people like me who done journal because they don’t know what to say and it can feel like a lot of work, this is a great way to remember to be grateful for things and to keep track of stuff you enjoy

### 5/5 — Some bugs but still a nice app

*2024-12-23*

I like the simplicity of this app. It makes it easy to quickly log feelings of gratitude. However I’ve noticed that sometimes the day doesn’t change. For example I added an entry three days ago. Today that entry still displays as being from today. Also I disabled notifications in the in app settings but it continues to push them.

### 5/5 — Maravillosa!

*2024-11-14*

Mil gracias a los desarrolladores. Interfaz clara y al grano. Súper limpia. Es súper agradable ir documentando los pequeños placeres cotidianos. 10/10

Mineral is a simple Gratitude Journal designed to help you appreciate the positive moments in life, both big and small.
