### 3/5 — Issue of signing in

*2025-11-09, version 3.3.5*

I used to love this app but now I can’t even sign in.

### 2/5 — A promising intro, until the app froze 🥲

*2025-08-31, version 3.3.5*

Loved the intro to the app and the UI / Design and was super excited to dive deeper - However, unfortunately upon reaching the “Any Topics That Interest You?” stage of the intro, it seems to just freeze, and no topics are populated for the user to select? 

Thought it was perhaps my phone glitching, so I offloaded the app and re-installed in the hope I’d be greater with a choice of topics to choose from, alas, ‘twas not meant to be 🥲

Can’t seem to skip that stage / screen to continue on the journey, as the [Continue] CTA is disable, so the only alternative is the return to the first step. Leaving me stuck between the promise of a creative adventure and the unsatisfied anticipation of furthering my user journey. 

Looked something like this: 🎨🧑🏻‍🎨…👀…🙇🏻‍♀️

Would love for this little hiccup to be ironed out so we can all enjoy what the app has to offer? 🙏🏼

### 3/5 — Couldn’t wait, now couldn’t open it

*2025-07-03, version 3.3.5*

I was so excited to use this app, as I really need to grow my creativity, but it won’t let me finish logging in. It asks me “Any specific topics you’re into?” But it shows no way to answer, and won’t let me continue.

### 1/5 — App broken

*2025-03-20, version 3.3.5*

I loved this app, but it just stopped working. I tried redownloading, turning my phone on and off, etc., but nothing seems to work.

### 1/5 — App is broken

*2025-03-08, version 3.3.5*

I have tried to download and use this app multiple times. I can’t get past the loading screen. I’d love to use this app but I can’t and I’m very disappointed. Hopefully, it will get fixed at some point.

### 1/5 — Stopped working

*2025-03-05, version 3.3.5*

Sadly, my app isn’t working.  I tried to restart - logged out, uninstalled/reinstalled, all the things but I can’t get past the page where asks what I’m interested in.  It offers no options and gives no way to skip or continue.  It’s supposed to renew in April, I hope it’s fixed before then.

### 1/5 — Broken?

*2025-03-02*

I used to love this app. The prompts are thought provoking and I love being able to customize the daily challenges. However, at some point the app just stopped working for me. I deleted the app and reinstalled, but now I can’t even login. I just get the loading wheel icon spinning indefinitely. Tried to access app support but even that is not working and “cannot be found”. My phone and app are updated to the most recent versions so it must be something on the developer’s side. Hope they fix it soon.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-02-24, version 3.3.5*

I used to love this app, but now when I opened it everything is blacked out and I can’t engage with the app at all. Started after I paid for the yearly subscription too- not sure if it’s a coincidence. Seems like whoever was running it abandoned ship or it doesn’t work in the US

### 1/5 — App stopped working

*2025-02-18, version 3.3.5*

The app doesn’t work at all for me and it’s completely up to date. Its sad because I really like this app, but the last update I can find is 11 months ago so I guess its probably discontinued.

### 2/5 — What is happening?

*2025-02-12, version 3.3.5*

I’ve been using the app for almost two years. It’s been my always go to for inspiration. Recently the app is absolutely empty, I have no idea what is happening. No visuals, no content, nothing to interact with. Very frustrating.

### 2/5 — so much potential!

*2025-01-03*

I cannot review any of the answers or features of the app in the free version. Everything is grayed out and it’s hard to understand a prompt without certain features. It seems like the app has crashed and I’m afraid to pay the full amount because I’m not sure if it’s a free version thats like this or if the app is just not functional for all of the features

### 3/5 — New version of this app

*2024-12-21, version 3.3.5*

Hey, this is a great app🩵
I have it for a while but wasn't using until today i needed. 
Lots of updated has been made but it is too complicated. I want to get used to it but it keep crushing. 
Wondering if it will ever be fixed or shall i give up on trying to use it?

### 1/5 — Charged me for free trial

*2024-01-10, version 3.3.2*

I signed up for the 3 day free trial and the app charged me for the full year instead. I’m annoyed and want a refund. Don’t sign up for the free 3 day trial. It’s a scam

### 1/5 — bad

*2023-05-29, version 3.2.2*

with the updates and “improvements”, simple things such as removing backgrounds from images no longer work. i’ve canceled this subscription.

### 3/5 — Язык

*2023-03-11, version 3.1.6*

### 1/5 — Stopped working

*2026-01-17*

I see several reviews from this year describing exactly the same issue I’m having. Used to love app, have had year subscription for over 4 years, stopped working, getting the loading wheel, tried everything and now can’t even log back in as it won’t let me go forward to even do that as described by others. I see no communication from developer on those reviews. I also had emailed them and got no response. Seems to be a hopeless case so I’m unsubscribing before my next renewal. What I’ve paid for this year’s subscription is going to waste sadly.

### 1/5 — Frustratingly broken

*2026-01-04, version 3.3.5*

This app never got past the introduction page. Froze every time I tried to use it!

### 1/5 — It’s not working

*2025-10-19, version 3.3.5*

It use to be a good app and redownload it the other day again and now it’s just not doing anything at all anymore.

### 1/5 — This App does not work

*2025-09-11, version 3.3.5*

This app does not work. They took my mine and the app does not get past the intro page and there is not app support.

### 1/5 — The app isn’t working

*2025-08-24*

I love the idea of this app. Three years ago, I briefly used it and it was inspiring and useful. I just came back to it and find that I can’t get it to function. I get the loading wheel, nothing responds. So, I deleted the app and reinstalled it. I got as far as the “what specific topics do you like” page but it won’t let me answer and it won’t go past that page. I have been paying for a subscription for years now, please help so I can use it

### 1/5 — Broken

*2025-06-15, version 3.3.5*

I think that I purchased for a long time. But it stop working. Please fix the app or refund

### 1/5 — It doesn’t let me login!

*2025-06-04, version 3.3.5*

I really want to use the app but sadly I can’t get past the login screen. It buffers for over 30 minutes and then crashes. hopefully this will get fixed!

### 1/5 — Abandoned app. So sad.😞

*2025-05-08, version 3.3.5*

What happened to this app?!! App support link now gives a 404 error code.
It used to be so great and totally unique- now nothing loads … journals say enroll and then wheel just spins … nada ☹️ sooo sad. 
Apparently it’s been abandoned.

Previously an amazing app like no other.

### 1/5 — Not Working?

*2025-04-18, version 3.3.5*

Is this App no longer working? It just spins and spins. And obviously I guess it’s not working because support page says Error 404

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-03-30, version 3.3.5*

Downloaded and can’t answer the questions, very disappointed as the app looks cool

### 5/5 — I miss W1D1…

*2025-09-02, version 3.3.5*

I miss W1D1 so much that I still can't accept that it doesn't work. If there is a way to save it, please do. The creators of this app are great. Beautiful project rip🪽🪽

### 5/5 — Pls change back the feed

*2025-06-20, version 3.3.5*

I really like this app it’s concept is perfect!! But the feed has been changed to the dark and simple one the bright one before was very atheistic 🥹pls pls change it back to the artistic style one!!

### 5/5 — Amazing; Best Creative App on my phone🩵

*2024-08-19*

I love this app; it keeps getting better and better. For inspiration, and helping me practice all sorts of new ways to create outside my usual practice (painting, mixed media). This gets me thinking and playing in new ways, every time I open it.

I love the art history aspects (and I’m an art history student).
I love that I can view other’s solution and yet it’s not like any “social media” platforms out there. Pure art, play, and practice. JOY!
Thank you to the developers of this amazing app.

### 5/5 — Innovative

*2023-06-03, version 3.2.2*

Have never seen anything like it before, absolutely love this.

### 5/5 — Very cool app

*2023-03-18*

Great app, really no complaints other than the UI is a little confusing at first, and some text is hard to read because its grey on black, also wish there was a way to see my posts? But those are all minuscule issues which im sure will be fixed

The concept is very unique and i love that the app embraces growth and isnt just another brain dead social media app to waste time.

Cant wait to see this app & community grow more!

### 5/5 — Use it everyday!

*2023-02-19, version 3.1.5*

My favourite app.  I bought it outright with the one time purchase option and have no regrets.  Definitely worth it because of all the time and research the developers have obviously put into it.  I find daily inspiration and learn something new all the time using this app.  I like how there is no pressure to gets likes etc. so it’s a great space to experiment with new art styles and personal expression.  I only have good things to say.  Thank you for helping me get out of a creative funk.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2023-02-01*

This is an amazing app! If you are looking to be inspired, get ideas and add creativity into your daily life, you should get this app. I am a big fan of the short daily creative challenges, you don’t need much to do them since they usually challenge you to look at the things you interact with everyday in a different way. Take for example today, the challenge was to find a colorful glass and place it against light, simple, but I had forgotten how beautiful and elegant glass is. I have a ton of ideas now on how I can utilize glass in my next photoshoot ✨

### 5/5 — Amazing for personal growth in today’s confusing world.

*2022-12-20, version 3.1.2*

Exactly what I said above. I haven’t found an app that better compiles 21st century knowledge, period. App is pretty and beautifully developed as well!

### 5/5 — Love app + will love its update

*2022-08-09*

As a photographer and artist, I love the creative challenges each day! Love the concept of this app so much! Would love to see even more challenges as sometimes they repeat. Also- might it be possible to create more attainable awards? For example, it is about near impossible to receive 500 likes to get an award. Also, could it not take as long to level up? I find earning over 1000 points between level 4&5 to be too challenging/long. And lastly, it would be great to know and see which of my submitted photos were actually liked - all I see is +1 like, but it doesn’t tell you which one performed well.

### 5/5 — Super happy

*2022-07-29, version 3.0.1*

So beautiful and original! It’s got a real soul.
