### 3/5 — Loving it so far

*2026-01-02, version 4.3.0*

I’ve used this app for about a week now testing it out during the trial period for journaling. I have to say the responses I’ve gotten back have been very insightful, informative, and helpful. 

I’d like to be able to import journal entries from another app I use.

*1.2.26: Taking long for the ability to import notes or journal entries

### 5/5 — This is the all-in-one daily tracking app I’ve been looking for

*2025-12-28, version 4.2.0*

This is the all-in-one daily tracking app I’ve been looking for for years.

I already have my own task management system, so I don’t really use Sparky’s to-do feature. However, I absolutely love how easy it is to track my habits and recurring routines with Sparky — things like getting allergy shots, changing bedding for my hamster, doing housework, changing my own bedding, getting dental cleanings, and more. It fits perfectly into my real life instead of forcing me into a rigid structure.

What I love most about Sparky is the voice input diary and the warm, thoughtful replies after each entry. The voice recognition is incredibly accurate, even when I talk about specialized topics from my own field. And the “warmly reply” is exactly what I look forward to at bedtime after recording my diary — it genuinely feels comforting and human.

Before discovering Sparky, I browsed the App Store many times but never found an app this robust. With Sparky, I can track life events, daily routines, how my day went, and even my friends’ birthdays — all in one place. The search function is also excellent: I can easily look up a word and see everything I’ve ever recorded about it. The “回朔” (look-back) feature is another highlight — I love being able to revisit a week or a month with random summaries.

Highly recommended for anyone who wants a thoughtful, flexible, and truly all-in-one life tracking app.

### 5/5 — Great AI app

*2025-12-17, version 4.1.0*

This app is fantastic for self discovery/growth.   The AI reply is like a good friend/therapist!

I can see that the developer is adding new features to the app but not very responsive to the feedback on the app.  (But got a response quickly with the .co below)

Would like to have a way to highlight, copy and save some of the insights gleaned from the AI convo as affirmation cards.   

Could use customization for a cleaner UI esp for the “trend” page.   Maybe I am an outlier but don’t need most of the stuff on that page.

### 4/5 — Great AI app

*2025-12-13*

This app is fantastic for self discovery/growth.   The AI reply is like a good friend/therapist!

I can see that the developer is adding new features to the app but not very responsive.

Lost one star from last review as I have not been getting the 900 AI points each month as a pro subscriber and have not heard back from developer 🤨

**Developer response:** Thank you for your support and for enjoying Sparky! We're sorry, but it seems we didn’t receive any emails about the issue you mentioned.

Your AI Points will reset to 900 on your billing date. For example, if your subscription renews on January 1, it will reset to 900 on February 1.

### 1/5 — Great but huge paywall

*2025-11-04, version 3.9.0*

The app has similar layout to notion and can do everything notion can do given you have the skill to code it. Except this app is asking for £200 for a lifetime subscription or £80 yearly!!?!?!?? Just for a tracker… just get notion it’s free with no paywall, this app is just Ai integrated anyway.

### 5/5 — Great AI app

*2025-10-02*

I love the event cards!  This app is also fantastic for self discovery/growth.   The AI reply is like a good friend/therapist!

I can see that the developer is adding new features to the app but not very responsive.

Initially I was concerned that I will run out of AI energy points quickly but the developer put in daily free points (plus 900 per month if you sign up for a subscription).

### 5/5 — Feels like it actually gets me

*2025-09-23*

It feels more personal than other AI note apps I’ve tried. Instead of throwing generic suggestions, it actually “gets” what I write. Makes me feel like I’m talking to someone who remembers things for me.

### 5/5 — money saving!!!

*2025-09-21, version 3.5.2*

Finally an all in one app for my day to day life! Hope it supports longer recordings for my meeting notes

### 5/5 — 如果想尝试不再工具碎片化浪费的时间，建议尝试他！

*2025-09-12, version 3.4.1*

如果你的痛点是工具切换，那么你应该毫不犹豫尝试他。开发者也非常看重用户体验，我对这个软件充满了信心！
