Notary public

Easy and efficient way to journal my notarizations. On my phone app, so journal is always with me for last minute work

Love this app!!

I’m in Alaska and I’m a very busy Mobile Notary. I use this app all the time. It’s the only journal I use. I’m able to take photos of the signer. Take photo of their ID. Take a photo of their thumbprint and it’s all saved right there. I’m able to go back and search really easily. I love it. This is a critical piece of my business.

Trial

The trial should be 5 entrys period. The 14 day thing is dumb when you first start out. I signed up the day my commission started on paper but I didn’t start till 2 months later not knowing it took the paperwork that long. So now my trial is up and I have zero journal entries. I will check out the other ejournal that I signed up for today to see if I like it and subscribe if so.

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the free trial didn’t meet your expectations. While we understand not everyone agrees with the trial model, we do our best to be transparent about it and we’re always happy to extend the trial if more time is needed (you should’ve received info about that). We’re proud to have supported over 50,000 notaries with more than 1 million journal entries over the past 11+ years and we’re committed to continuing to provide reliable, long-term support to the notary community. If there's anything we can do to improve your experience, please reach out directly, we’d love the opportunity.

Could not be easier!

I’ve been using this app since COVID, it has eliminated the need for a paper journal at the point of signing, and confirms the ID is legit. I love this feature!!

It's decent

I've been using this app for a few years and recently switched from an exclusive android user to an iphone and certain things are inconvenient.

The primary thing on iphone is that the app doesn't give a prompt to remember/save or use my saved password. I've tried deleting it and reinstalling multiple times to see if it'll prompt but it never does.

So, since I now have to remember it and type it in every single time, I had to change to a simpler pw, which is obviously less secure.

The other thing, formerly on the android app the ID scanner worked amazingly... Until an update changed the way it scans and now it's a pain on both iphone and Android. Yay "updates"!
