### 2/5 — Sound

*2024-05-01, version 1.8.2*

Much too high pitch, I can not understand what most people say. And very little on the TV.

### 3/5 — Cant change other of images and app has bugs

*2023-08-27*

### 2/5 — Keeps crashing

*2023-08-13*

I loved this app for the journal and vision board, however now when I tap the journal icon it keeps crashing!  Has not worked for weeks
!

### 3/5 — Great layout and concept - very laggy

*2023-08-11*

I really like this app and have purchased the full package but after using it for a bit now, I’ve noticed that it is very laggy, and this can be frustrating. Really hoping the developers can fix the efficiency of the app. Thanks!

### 4/5 — Cool app

*2023-01-29, version 1.6.4*

Its a great app but not helpful in that you cannot download any content you’ve uploaded, you cant upload video or audio files and you cannot move content into other boards. These restrictions cause alot of frustration as your content is essentially “permanently placed” once uploaded. Would be an awesome app if these features were included but since not it is just a nice app.

### 2/5 — Can’t use horizontally…

*2023-01-19*

Please fix this asap, this app looks very exciting and really want to use! But I use my iPad with an keyboard so would be even better if you could update to be able to use horizontally.

### 4/5 — Nice

*2023-01-12*

As a brainstorming place to think about goals, it's great. As a place to plan ideas and actions, I haven't used it enough yet. When you choose images they are rather small so I add a bunch and then look at them on the board. When I delete them there it's rather slow and the app stops responding.. the images you delete still show on the board or when you browse through them. Title and other changes also require you to leave the goal before you can see the changes on the board. Since then the app is very slow and any change require minutes to load. I looked for an update but it didn't appear in my App Store account, then I came here to write a review and there was an update on the app page. I didn't notice any change right away for loading times but it might have fixed other things. But sadly it also raised the introductory price by 40%.

### 4/5 — So far so good

*2022-12-30*

Easy and intuitive to use.
Would be better if it would work in landscape mode, not just portrait mode.

### 5/5 — Great app and update but a few glitches

*2022-12-29*

Really love this app for its simplicity and intuitiveness. The recent addition of actions to achieve your goals is brilliant - again so simple but effective with a timescale added. 

There does appear to be a problem when you swipe to your actions from the goals screen, it appears to glitch and take me back to the goals. Hopefully can be fixed but in the meantime you can still access actions by going into the goals. 

The colours are gorgeous, great photo options in the app but also having the freedom to add your own, I love it, well done!

### 3/5 — Okay app.

*2022-12-15*

Please add the ability for photos to open up full screen when clicked on. I have to Flickr he photo twice and even then it opens up a small photo. If I try to zoom in the photo to make it full screen it contained within a small square on the screen. This defeats the purpose of the app and makes it unusable.

**Developer response:** Hey DH_0433. Thanks for giving Horizons and try and also for the great feedback!The update we released today gets rid of the 5 photo limitation you mentioned in #2. We're working on adding landscape mode for iPads and we'll see what we can do about #3. Thanks for bringing this all to our attention. If you have any other thoughts or feedback, please send us a note at horizons@treebetty.com! We'd love to hear it. :)

### 5/5 — Best vision board app

*2022-12-05, version 1.5*

I’ve searched off and on for a vision board app for many years. They’ve all been clunky and relied on rigid templates. This app isn’t perfect but they are really doing a lot of things right and constantly developing the app to make it better. I love how flexible it is to add photos from multiple sources, including unsplash. The tagging and filtering system is awesome for visualizing subsets of my photos and affirmations. And the sync across devices is great so I can create and review on either my phone or tablet. I miss the shake to mix entries though please bring it back, that was a fun feature for shuffling my board :) Thanks and keep up the great work!

### 5/5 — This is a great app !

*2022-11-24, version 1.5*

I’m rooting for this app so much. Please make a widget version too of the boards. So we could a snippet of our boards on the homescreen right away. Thank youu!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Very buggy

*2024-03-24*

Slow to load. Does not save changes. I regret buying and I’ll ask for my money back.

### 1/5 — Super super slow almost non responsive

*2023-12-23, version 1.8.2*

Used to love this now it barely responds

### 1/5 — Crashed

*2023-10-14*

Crashed after creating my board and can’t access anything I have written or saved in the app. Waist of my time.

### 1/5 — The worst

*2023-07-04*

It’s the worst I’ve ever had! Not working the way it should! Disappointed!

### 1/5 — App glitching

*2023-04-15, version 1.7*

The app froze and would not refresh. I had to remove the app and reinstall. I lost all the pictures I uploaded and days of journaling. Disappointing.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2023-01-26, version 1.6.4*

I can't add pictures to the board please refund me

### 1/5 — Useless

*2022-11-22*

Absolute useless. As soon as I press my board the app closes immediately. Fix this problem please.

### 1/5 — Layout does not work on M2 iPad

*2022-10-31, version 1.4.4*

The app in its current state does not work. Your first row of boards will be above your screen and unreachable unless you swipe down and hold. DO NOT purchase this app until an update fixes this

### 1/5 — Kostet Geld!

*2022-05-22*

Leider kostet alles was. Die kostenlose Version lohnt sich nicht! Kaum Möglichkeiten zur Gestaltung. Sofort wieder deinstalliert☹️

### 2/5 — Not even able to open it

*2026-04-09, version 1.9.1*

Idk if it’s me but it’s not working and like tweaking out and I can’t even like open the app cuz I says I haven’t filled out the goal i want???

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-03-31*

I use it everyday to stay focused on my goals

### 5/5 — Very Promising but…

*2025-04-12*

I wish they have widgets. It would be really good to have widgets of the vision board so we see it in our home page everytime. Overall.. love this app. I paid it and it’s worth it!

### 5/5 — Well worth it

*2023-09-28*

So glad this is a one time fee and not a subscription, the 13 dollars is nothing for how much this has helped me.

### 5/5 — Great experience

*2023-06-28*

This app works great and I use to for different mood boards and daily goal planning. Would love to see a home screen widget and a MacBook version!

### 5/5 — Many features do not work

*2023-06-27*

I cannot cancel a goal once set and the reminder function leads to app cracking down

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2023-04-07*

This app is smooth, aesthetic, and offers great functionality for when I make my vision and inspiration boards.

### 5/5 — Worth every penny

*2023-02-05*

I tried several vision board apps.  This was the best, and I loved that you can pay once and own your vision board, instead of having to pay fees every week.

Vision boards in general are so awesome.  They have really increased my ability to live my values.  This app really is a great way to do it.

### 5/5 — One of the best apps

*2023-01-25*

This is one of the Mets mindfulness, goal setting and journaling apps that I have ever used.  It’s easy and the graphics makes it easy to create a vision board.  Absolutely love this app.

### 5/5 — Reordering Photos and Words

*2023-01-10*

Reordering gets kind of tricky especially on the iPad Pro. It is not as fluent or pictures don’t go where you expect them to go. The other issue is that on the iPad, the app doesn’t go full screen on landscape mode. Other than that, the app is pretty nice. However, I think the small glitches should be removed or corrected.

### 5/5 — The Holy grail of vision board and goal setting

*2023-01-01*

I treated myself to an iPad mini for Christmas. The purpose of getting one was to digitalise my notes and journals, to stop having multiple notebooks. And I wanted a vision board that was much more than just Pinterest. After a week of researching internet articles and YouTube for the best apps to personalise the iPad and downloading and trialing multiple apps and then deleting them, this is by far the best app I have come across. Beautiful UI, gorgeous to look at, and easy to personalise. Within 60 seconds I signed up to their reasonable subscription fee. Not only can you easily create a vision board, with photos and suggested motivational quotes, you can set goals, break down those goals, track them and write notes and thoughts down. If there was anything to improve, for me it’s 3 things: 1) to allow the option to switch off the writing to text option, so your handwritten notes can stay hand-written. 2) add widgets 3) Also I’m not sure if there is an integration to Google calendar but that would be super helpful. Either way absolutely BEST APP I’ve come across and I’ve taken a deep dive into a ton of apps lately. Excited to see if it helps me bring my goals to life. Thank you 🙏
