### 5/5 — Love this app

*2025-02-21, version 2.4*

I’ve been using this app for about three years and have absolutely loved it. It has a very simple design and fantastic prompts/guided journaling that has helped me connect with myself or navigate struggling times in my life. I definitely recommend the app if it sounds like what you’re looking for. When it has updates, it adds features that add to its quality without changing its design or other functions like it only will get better.

### 5/5 — Please Read This

*2025-02-02, version 2.4*

Okay, I absolutely love this app. Especially the AI bot. It has helped me work through some really tough things. Lately though, it isn’t working/loading at all and I’m so sad. Is there any way to troubleshoot this?

### 5/5 — Superior than other apps

*2024-12-26, version 2.4*

I never write reviews but this app is truly a god send. This app has AI which I don’t see apps offering in non premium category 🫶🏻 Much better than other apps for practising mindfulness even without AI !!
Also no constant push messages for subscribing to premium every time you open the app! Such a well rounded and thoughtful app which had helped me immensely even without its non premium features. Overall a big win-win!!

### 5/5 — Awesome❤️

*2024-09-24, version 2.4*

Simple but powerful!
Thank you!

### 5/5 — Sweet, simple, and ad-free!

*2024-01-06, version 2.4*

This is the first journaling/self-reflection app that I have actually consistently used, and I recommend it to everyone! I feel like many of these types of apps are overly complicated, have tons of locked features, or are riddled with ads, so this app's sleek, polished design was a pleasant surprise.

Once you open the app, you are all set to start reflecting. You can put in as much or as little effort as you want into this--it has a main reflection function as well as individual targeted reflections. Also, a huge plus in my book, it comes with the notifications turned off by default, so it's up to you if you want to opt in!

There are a few things that you do need to buy the subscription to use, but I personally think their free version is excellent. Honestly, I am considering getting the premium version just to support the developers and keep this app ad-free. 10/10 would recommend, definitely a staple for me!

### 4/5 — I LOVE THIS APP!

*2023-12-02, version 2.4*

I love this app so much! It’s so amazing that your able to reflect on your day, and talk to an AI about your problems, and get solutions to them. The only thing I wish is that people wouldn’t have to pay for the subscription, but besides that, awesome and inspiring app!

### 5/5 — bug and glitches

*2023-11-21, version 2.4*

this app is amazing for my mental heath and my go to app for journaling. the reason i’m writing this review is because of a bug i’ve encountered. ever since i updated my iphone to ios 17, i’ve encountered a bug. every time i start writing a journal entry, i can’t see what i’m writing. hoping this gets fixed because this app is a god send.

### 5/5 — Blank Note (Thoughts)

*2023-10-04, version 2.4*

Might you add a blank journal functions? I just want to write quotes and thoughts without a prompt. Thanks!

### 3/5 — Doesn’t allow you to export AI chats

*2023-09-28, version 2.4*

I was really hoping this ai journaling app would be smoother to use than the one I’ve been using(Rosebud), and it is built a little better, runs more smoothly, but it doesn’t allow me to email my ai chat logs to myself, which is integral to being able to use the automations I have set up to generate to do lists for myself from things I’ve said while just talking, and summaries for my partner(so I don’t overwhelm her by a constant flow of messages). It also doesn’t give a summary of the ai chats, which helps with feeling heard and understood.

### 5/5 — If you are in Dark times in your life, read this.

*2023-09-23, version 2.4*

I’m gonna start out with the corny saying of “I never leave reviews” but I don’t and I really hope the developers of this app see this review.

I downloaded this app at a dark time in my life. I was desperate, I needed something. Long story short, I love this app. I love everything about this app and I would gladly pay the subscription for it. This is one a few Journaling type apps I use on the daily and my absolute favorite because it actually helps.

I am so impressed with the AI friend feature. I swear I’m literally talking to a super intelligent friend for advice. I swear there’s a person talking to me. 😂

Anyways, to the App Developers, thank you soo much for this app. I know this took a lot of time and effort and understanding. It’s amazing!
