Will not restore my lifetime purchase

Love it

I have not had a place to be so true and honest to myself in a long time and this makes it fun and organized and it is so secure I don’t have to worry about someone reading it. I got the pro version and I think it is a great price for its value and i love that it is yearly and not a monthly deal! For kids and adults I definitely recommend getting it, however I do wish there were some better options for the non pro version! I still do think the deal is very good but I would love if you didn’t have to buy a subscription to get half the stuff. I do highly recommend this app tho! :3

You’re greedy

Sorry but why do we have to pay to add more than two photos?? Why do you have to pay to have a theme?? And why do you have to pay to give certain words a font?? And you actually charge sooo much for something you can do in your notes app for free. It’s a good app but you’re greedy, you want $30 for something so basic it’s insane to me.

Lost access

The app was really easy to use and I loved how ads weren’t shoved in your face 24/7. However, I have one critique. There’s no “forgot password” button, let alone any way to get access back to the app if you forget it. I unfortunately forgot my password, and I was forced to delete and reinstall the app entirely. The security question wouldn’t pop up for me either. I lost months of hard work and important information. 3 stars for me.

Good but bad

I love it I wrote a lot in it but I forgot my password and there is no way of getting in without it
I think there should be a forgot password button with your in real life password or email or something as I can’t get it

Daily

Nice

I got locked out my diary…

Hello I was loving this app and I think it is great for logging and journal entries and I have no complains about the free version… but is there a code override? Becuase I wasn’t on the app for about a month and I couldn’t remember my passcode and now I am locked out of my own diary…

No way to recover account

I downloaded this app a few years ago. I wrote in it a few times. It was cute. The basic app is all I used, never bought any upgrades. I didn’t need them. It’s been a while since I got into it and now i can’t remember the passcode. It doesn’t give me any options to recover my passcode or account. Just keeps giving me the same 9 dots to keep trying different combos endlessly. I would be far more upset had I put any money into this app just to not be able to get back in when I forgot the passcode :/

Straight to the point

This app is really helpful for me and it doesn’t make you pay or anything, it doesn’t have ads, it just lets you write whatever you want whenever you want. I’ve been using it every day and it helps me just write down my thoughts without feeling like I will be judged. I think this app is a really good and helpful app, definitely worth getting.

Great App

I’m Enjoying it. I bought a year subscription. It works and looks great in my opinion

Love It!

I really like this app. It has just about everything I’m looking for in a digital journal. One thing I would like to be able to do is import my own stickers to use in addition to the stickers available. I’ve collected a lot over the years and would love to be able to use them with this app.

AMAZING I RECOMMEND

So one day my day was going horrible until I thought maybe I should get a app where I could let it all out so I searched up journaling apps until I found this one the my diary and I thought you know what I’ll get this one BEST MISTAKE EVERRRR I opened up the app choose a password then choose your font but ones with the crowns a premium but I choose one then I pressed the plus button then let it all out and after some time I felt fresh and like a big weight came of my shoulder

Forgot My Password

I cant log back in to get view my entries. When I first created my account I made a backup password, but since the update I don't even have the option to put that in anymore. I used to LOVE this app. I'm disappointed that I no longer have access to it.

Excellent

Mah diary

I can rant all abt my day or week without anyone getting annoyed which im so happy abt

I love this app

I love this app so much but it keeps on telling me I have to pay and that’s really annoying because it keeps on sending notifications on limited time offer for payment and I don’t want to pay because the app literally says it’s free and I don’t want to pay for an app that’s free.

I can’t remember my password

I used to use this app a lot last year but the thing is I know my password but it still didn’t work as it should of I don’t know any other pass I might have but yeah

Password reset option unavailable

Recently i am trying to reset password for the app however see no option to do so.

Response from developer

Hello. Please tap the Menu on the up-left corner and go to Diary Lock - Set Passcode - Forget password, and then reset. Also, you can try pattern lock or password or fingerprint(only when your phone supports fingerprint) to lock it.

Problem

The overall app is grate but if however you forget your password there’s no way you can reset it to change it ?

Why does making the text bold cost money

In app purchases are the bane of my existence and I hope people who add unnecessary ‘premium’ garbage should all get swarmed by bees
