## What is Scrapbook?

'Bubbles' Journal' is an interactive diary for your thoughts and stories. A diary promotes sound mental health, helps cultivate mindfulness, and lets you reflect on your thoughts over time. In this journal, you'll write in the company of the friendly, curious (and always cuddly) Bubbles. Together you'll build a living, vivid diary — a place to gather the souvenirs and memories of life, just like a home.
A vivid diary is a dialogue with yourself; Bubbles makes that conversation come a little easier. Feel free to write on your own entries, or let Bubbles be your guide.

This app is free to try to see how the app feels. 10% of this app’s profit is donated to the German Depression Aid Foundation promoting mental health and mindfulness.

- Tags: You can search and filter topics with Tags to reflect how your thoughts have evolved over time
- Book Mode: Scroll through your diary as if it were a physical book
- Memory Minder: A reminder for your future self to read. Writing about your first day of school? Set a reminder for the end of the year so you can reflect on what it was like in the light of now.

- No advertisements or personal data tracking
- 100% usable offline
- Lockable & encrypted

### 5/5 — Stop searching, this is the best journal!

*2026-08-10, version 3.2.2*

Everything is so lovely and well made. Keeps me so motivated to keep my mental!

### 2/5 — Not good

*2026-06-20, version 3.2.2*

The app only let me write ONE page, and then they kept spamming the subscription in my face. Don’t download if you don’t want to spend money.

### 5/5 — Really cute, Really useful

*2026-06-18, version 3.2.2*

I wanted a good journal app, and this one is perfect. Great for mental health journaling, very cute and positive, and no AI!

### 5/5 — Amazing, No Issues

*2026-05-31, version 3.2.1*

This app is really adorable and actually functional, I have no issues! Keep up this amazing work, Thank you!

### 5/5 — Loving bubbles

*2026-05-29, version 3.2.1*

Bubbles is so so nice and cuddly you choose his house colour first make a pin and then you are off to a great start seeing this is what I love it’s a scrapbook and it’s a journal how you can actually plan if you’re if you’re a seven-year-old like me I would probably love this but it’s getting even better than I was mentioning to my mum and dad’s

### 5/5 — It’s adorable and easy!

*2026-04-11, version 3.2.1*

I have been using it for only a couple of days but I love how personalized it feels, it’s easy to use and the design is super cute. Love it so far!

### 5/5 — Really good

*2026-04-03, version 3.2.1*

Bubbles is pretty good to explore!

### 5/5 — Perfection

*2026-02-26, version 3.1.0*

This may be the first review I have ever written. But I ran over here to write this. Literally exactly what i-ve been looking for. For, like, years. I get excited about journaling in this app. Also, a first. The vibe. The interface. The aesthetic. And Bubbles is an angel. You made something really special here, y’all. Thank you. 💜

### 5/5 — The best app EVER

*2026-01-25, version 3.1.0*

It’s a very nice app it has good music ,the bear is cute, and it is calming. I suggest you get this app NOW!!!

### 4/5 — First app to help me stay consistent

*2026-01-21, version 3.0.5*

I don’t typically go for a paid version of an app but for the included perks, 2.99 q month felt a lot cheaper than me buying ANOTHER journal irl and using it once just to put it down and never pick it back up again. I love this easy to use app with such a cute vibe. The interface is really easy to understand and feels natural for actual writing which is what I was looking for. I know this app is new so the small things I would like to see changed are not taking away from my experience so far but, 
I would love to be able to cycle out prompts if the one that is being offered doesn’t speak to me but I’m not sure what to write about on my own. I also would love to be able to swipe to turn pages in my entries. Lastly, just more of a sticker collection would be nice. :-)

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 3.2.2 — 2026-06-04

Hey everyone,

Today, we’re adding some fun little dialogs where Bubbles tries out Zumba, a fun dance workout and one of Anna’s favorite hobbies!
Also some minor bug fixes and updates.

Thank you for your support and love!
Bubbles, Anna & Ali :)

### 3.2.1 — 2026-04-01

Hey everyone,

Anna, my partner and co-founder, has now officially joined the team. Anna has been shaping Bubbles behind the scenes for a long time through design and concept work. So much of the love that defines this app comes directly from her talent. I deeply appreciate all the care and creativity she has already brought to this app, and I’m so excited for everything we will create together going forward.
We’ve updated some of the text in the app to properly reflect her official role.

Additionally, we fixed a bug where button hitboxes were larger than they should have been.

Thank you for your support and love!
Bubbles, Anna & Ali :)

### 3.2.0 — 2026-03-06

Hey everyone,
We’re really hyped to present this update, as we’ve reworked the user experience on the canvas to make drawing and interacting with images and other elements much easier. Big shoutout to Manu!

Besides that, we’ve added some other cool stuff:
- You can now crop images
- You can now change entry dates
- Refreshed settings look
- When exporting PDFs you can now set a range (thx Joyce!)
- Stability improvements & bug fixes

If you have any feedback I’d love to hear it, especially if you catch a bug, since with the canvas changes there are probably some things we missed.

As always, thank you so much for your support and love!
Bubbles & Ali :)

### 3.1.0 — 2026-01-20

Hey everyone,
We’re excited to add the next Apple Intelligence feature to this cozy home.
You can now chat with Bubbles about your entry. On compatible devices, after you’ve written a few entries, a new button appears while writing. Tap it and Bubbles will help you reflect, explore new perspectives, and find fresh ideas for what to write next. Thanks to Apple Intelligence, everything stays on device, works offline, and remains private.
We also refined the little chit chat in the menu even further.

As always, thank you for your support and love!
Bubbles & Ali :)

### 3.0.5 — 2026-01-06

Hey everyone,

I hope you had beautiful holidays!
This version brings some small localization adjustments to the German language and updates the appearance of some glass buttons.

Thank you for your support and feedback!

Happy journaling in 2026,
Bubbles & Ali :)
