The best video journaling diary

I have tried them all—Confide, Talkbook (now Heartspring), and countless others—and this is the best video journaling apps. I tried it in July for the first time and it was ok but the improvements they’ve made since are amazing. Please keep supporting and developing this app! ❤️

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the kind review! It meant a lot to me as a lot of work has been put in to try to improve the app and to hopefully give a great journaling experience. Please if you ever have any feedback or requests don't hesitate to reach out through settings within the app.

Creative, low-pressure way to journal

Journaling can feel daunting when I’m just staring at a blank page, but I love that you can type, video journal, or even answer prompts in this app. The encouragement makes it much easier to get started. I also love seeing people’s happy moments. It feels like what social media could be if people were actually being genuine! Highly recommend to anyone wanting to explore journaling for mental health 💗✨

Thank you very much for your thoughtful review! We are so happy to hear that you're enjoying both the journaling and happy reasons.

Find some Happiness!!

Would thinking about what part of today made you happy help your mind and mood? Well apparently so for me. The app by itself is bright, calming with a fun welcoming interface. You can create a private video journal with entries as you desire but there is also this feature where you can share a one minute video about what makes you happy today. Just thinking about what made your day certainly helps you appreciate your life and the people and things that brighten it. Seems simple to use. If you’re interested in journaling, exercise, eating healthy, challenges… you could enjoy this app. If you want to feel a little better about what’s good in life, definitely give it a go!

Encouraging

At first I was hesitant about posting, but it's actually been fun. I especially love the Happy Reasons!It's been inspiring to see the little AND big things that make people happy and keep them going, and to be reminded that there is always SOMETHING good that happens in a day that we can be grateful for. Next I'll be trying the daily video journal. And for someone who isn't very tech savvy, the app is very user friendly!! Highly recommend!!
