Saved it, seen it before I exited app. Just logged in, no entry, no entry history. Not happy. ### 4/5 — Great except for one thing *2026-03-05, version 2.1.6* I got this app a long time ago and loved it. I would write in it ALL the time. But I forgot my password and there’s no way to get it back ### 4/5 — White Screen *2026-02-19, version 2.1.6* The app needs an update. I’ve been trying to open it for days and I’ve just gotten a white screen. There also isn’t a Lock Screen when I open the app. Its just blank white ### 4/5 — Good which a catch *2025-11-25, version 2.1.6* Good/not as soon as I downloaded it it would not work but the last update it finally got fixed as soon as it was finished I went on and oh my god it loocrftv sorry my cat went on the keyboard anyway it looked fantastic I will not wright ent moor I do not want to spoil it ### 3/5 — Mieux l’enregistrement était automatique… *2025-11-11, version 2.1.6* L’application est vraiment cool et très pratique, mais ce serait sympa si on pouvait avoir un enregistrement automatique (un peu comme sur Word, par exemple). Ça m’est arrivée de nombreuses fois d’oublier d’enregistrer et j’ai perdu tout ce que j’avais commencé à écrire… Selon moi, c’est l’un des seuls bémols. Ce serait également bien qu’il puisse y avoir plus de choix de couleurs, de thèmes. Sinon l’application est très bien faite et je la recommande. ### 4/5 — Tipje 😉 *2025-11-06, version 2.1.6* Heel goede app..! Is er een mogelijkheid om het dagboek te exporteren naar Pdf..? ### 1/5 — This app *2025-10-20, version 2.1.6* Ware of time you get ads and you can not copy what you wrote and move it to another app. But this is my opinion it’s free right. So what do you expect. I pay for on already so I just went to it ### 5/5 — So slay *2025-10-18, version 2.1.6* Secret diary with passcode is the best so then after that, your hands won’t be so tired and hurt after writing and I could just use this because people likes to be nosy when it comes to you having a real diary book and not on your electronic and there’s no passcode on a real diary book so they would just look but download secret diary with passcode. They can’t even look at all unless youyou tell them the passcode now I can write my celebrity crush what happened at school even my enemies. ### 1/5 — No “Forgot Password” feature! *2025-10-08, version 2.1.6* I forgot my password and cannot figure out what it is. There is no info online that I have found on how to retrieve or reset it. I have been trying to figure it out for probably 2 years now every few months. No luck! And no one responded to my email. I keep getting notifications this week, and have no idea what they are trying to tell me, because I can’t get in! Get a diary with a fail safe plan! This is not one. ### 5/5 — So easy to use *2025-10-02, version 2.1.6* This app is just an easy app that’s not complicated to use but lets you journal or show your pictures of what you’re doing. It also lets you use a passcode to get into it so nobody can snoop and read it unless they know that passcode. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bad *2026-06-19, version 2.1.6* I used this app for 1 year and I forgot my password and after resetting it the password would not work. If you want a diary app don’t choose this one. ### 1/5 — Trash app *2026-04-24, version 2.1.6* Terrible app. I switched phones and lost 5 years of my diary. I reached out but never received a response. ### 1/5 — Loved it…until I Didn’t *2026-03-03, version 2.1.6* I’ve had this app since 2013! I use it faithfully. I opened it today, to write my daily entry and EVERYTHING is gone!!! Every single entry! How?!?! I’m so upset. ### 1/5 — glitchy *2026-02-07, version 2.1.6* ads every entry. wouldn’t be a problem, but i watched all the ads and it still didn’t save my entry, and with one wrong press as you’re writing, you lose everything you write. so annoying. ### 1/5 — Deleted itself and all the data ! *2026-01-07, version 2.1.6* I am beyond annoyed !! Had been using the app for the past year and the app randomly deleted itself and all the data deleted, re downloaded and no information came back, tried to email the company and the email didn’t go through! The information was so important and beyond annoyed!!!! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t save entries after pressing save *2026-01-04, version 2.1.6* The app would be good if it didn’t have a commercial after you save your journal entry. the commercial comes on it’s never ending and it won’t let you go back to the journal. 2 pressing save doesn’t a thing because after the commercial, your entry is gone. What’s the point of a journal if I can’t see what I wrote? Waste of my time and energy. I’m deleting the app. Not worth the fuss. ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2025-12-17, version 2.1.6* Full of ads, I made my first entry and an ad popped up. I closed it out and reopened it. Mind you I saved the note. I reopened the app and it was deleted like I didn’t just type up my first entry. BYEEEE ! I hate to have my damn time wasted! ### 1/5 — Password reset *2025-12-09, version 2.1.6* UPDATE: I tried again to login to my app, and I was sent a new password. I input the password and it automatically pops up an ad and then crashes and the new password that wa provided no longer is accepted. I deleted the app along with years of emotions.. It’s been a while since I’ve been on the app and I had forgotten my password. I input my email for a new password and have not gotten an email with the new password. I’ve input my email 4 times and have not received anything for my password reset. Really thinking of deleting this app if I have not gotten a password reset. ### 1/5 — Не понравилось *2025-11-08, version 2.1.6* Просто изчезли все записи за несколько лет. ### 1/5 — Locked me out *2025-11-05, version 2.1.6* After years this thing locked me out .. Every try to reset brought up ads then suddenly shut down . No replies ever received for help and I finally deleted the app and lost years not notes!! Horrible app! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-07-11, version 2.1.6* Simple and well organized great app! ### 5/5 — Perfect for me *2026-05-26, version 2.1.6* I’ve been using this for years and works very well for me. My only complaint is that there is no option for a fee to get rid of ads but certainly not a deal breaker. The ads aren’t very numerous ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-05-02, version 2.1.6* Awesome app love it ### 5/5 — Diary *2026-04-20, version 2.1.6* Thank you so much. I’m happy that this game this Diary is for free cause all the other ones are a lot and I really need a diary. This helps me a lot and other people. Thank you. ### 5/5 — Love *2026-04-06, version 2.1.6* I had it for one day and I love it MUST GET ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-03-09, version 2.1.6* I love this app because for one it’s free and everything free isn’t always good. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2026-01-22, version 2.1.6* Perfect ### 5/5 — I lost all my data *2026-01-12, version 2.1.6* Accidentally deleted the app because of water on my phone :( really sad about it since I had gotten really comfortable with the app and have typed things that helped me get through the day ### 5/5 — awesome *2025-12-06, version 2.1.6* 𝓘𝓽 𝓱𝓮𝓵𝓹 𝓶𝓮 𝓵𝓮𝓽 𝓸𝓾𝓽 𝓶𝔂 𝓮𝓶𝓸𝓽𝓲𝓸𝓷𝓼 ### 5/5 — Great *2025-11-02, version 2.1.6* The other diary apps I had were bad and this one was honestly very good I love it you must have this! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
