Nice but limited

I’ve used this app for several days and the microphone button does not work. When I press the microphone button and talk, I can see the progress bar below showing that I’m talking, but when I end what I have to say, the microphone turns into a spinning wheel and then never produces anything. I have sent an email to Support and they said an update was coming out that day to fix it. No update has ever materialized and it is now several days later. I emailed Support again and I’ve never heard anything back. I guess I will move on.

Response from developer

Hi! We completely changed the way voice recording works, and it should be working properly.

Leave Me Alone!

I downloaded your app to check out. It isn’t what I need. But you persist in emailing me daily, despite me having asked multiple times to stop. Your emails say to control communication preference in the app settings. THERE ARE NO APP SETTINGS! Leave me alone!!

Great little app for micro journaling

This is one of the few new things I’m using regularly — really could use a camera function and integrations with Slack or Notion but great for quick journaling — has AI built in for the paid tier

Exceptional

Helpful, useful and insightful. Responses are helpful in clarifying thinking and shaping understandings of situations and self- helping to know thyself. I recommend

Great app

Is a great app, is just what I need, I would give it a 5 stars if the journaling mechanism is better such as letting you edit your entry, putting in headlines, changing the colour text, font size, style, etc
