Ok. Not great.
Used it for years. Unfortunately, it’s developed a bad habit updating and syncing at yet weekend so anything written on the phone app overwrites anything you’ve written in the preceding week online via the laptop. An app that can’t do in-play syncing isn’t any good for journaling between devices.
Pro member since 2013
This is one of my most important apps. I have the pro version so I can have multiple journals. I love it. I love seeing my notes over the years.
Love Penzu, so simple!
I’ve been using Penzu alongside my masters studies and it’s helped me so much!
Great product!
I’ve used Penzu for a decade and I love it! It’s simple to use and exactly what I need.
Great App
I have used this app since 2017 and I love the functionality that I can create different journals for different purposes.
Love
I love this app. I can either go on my laptop or on my phone and just get everything out that I need to, it’s honestly a really great app and I’ve been using it for quite some years now. I definitely recommend to get this app if you love to journal 😊
Love this App!
I love to journal about various segments of my life. Penzu allows me to keep a thoughts/life journal along with an ideas journal, travel journal, foods journal, piano practice journal and others. It’s easy to use, it’s organized, and it looks good.
No support available
Cant access my account as I forgot my password and am not receiving password reset email. Nor did i receive the email to get the code. Support faqs are useless and you cant contact anyone unless you pay for the pro subscription. Do not use this app!!!!!! Do not give them your money!!!!
Journaling like a boss!
I kept a paper journal off and on through the years (mostly off) but I started journaling on Penzu 4 years ago and I’m a regular now! I even upgraded to the Pro version so I could keep multiple journals. I’ve also started transcribing my ancient hand-written journals into Penzu and now I have a life-span record in the cloud. That’s just amazing and I hope one day I can print it all out into a book. I have recommended Penzu to many people over the years.

App is unusable for me
I like Penzu, but the app has been unusable for me. I usually switch between writing entries on my laptop and my iPhone, and up till last year I didn’t encounter issues with that setup (with just a few occasional glitches that support could help out with). But for some reason I can’t sync Penzu on my phone anymore. Photos I upload from my phone into entries don’t save. The app is honestly infuriating. I’ve contacted support several times but I don’t even think they understand the issue. I have so many entries on Penzu, but not sure if I should stick with it any longer.

Easy and focused
I love there is a desktop version and app so I can write in both places. Also that there is a functional journalling that doesn’t cost. The setup is simplified and streamlined layout, helping to not overwhelm my head.
BEST E-JOURNAL/ORGANIZER
Been using this app for more than a decade and it never disappointed me.
Please add a dark mode
Love this app, been using it for years and my only issue is that even with my brightness on the lowest setting with night shift on to tint the blue light into warm: opening the app at night in a dark room feels like setting off the white hot intensity of a thousand suns straight into my corneas 😵💫
Other than that love the application and can’t find any other qualms

Me encanta la tengo desde 2024
2024 solo que si reinicias no sirve o tarda mucho en actualizarse y agregar tu cuenta
Time Capsule option not available
A lot of features in the desktop version not available in the app.
Really upset with the sync issue
I’ve normally been loving this app. It’s free, you can access it on your phone app as well as the web, and it syncs.
However!! I don’t know what happened. I’ve mostly been using the web version, but I was in bed, so I wanted to add something I thought of using the phone app. The phone app had not been syncing. Today, I finally remember while on my computer, and I noticed it synced the web version to whatever was on the phone app a missing MONTHS of an entry I’ve been working as a recap to myself to read on my birthday. Additionally, I am pregnant with my first, so it had a lot of updates about all things baby, and I am just really upset that I lost all of those updates to myself.
If anyone at all still checks the comments and updates the app, PLEASE reach out, so I can recover the rest of the entry.

So easy and simple
I need nothing more. Just open and go when my thoughts come up that I need to write about. Saved in one secure place. Great. Simple.
Pro isn’t worth it
When you subscribe to pro the only feature you get is changing the background colour. It’s utterly useless. You still can’t do full screen editing, you don’t get version history (which is terrible because your entries disappear all the time), and half the buttons in the UI ask you for more money. It’s a greedy little app that basically takes your money and gives you nothing.
