### 1/5 — Journal

*2024-03-14, version 1.6*

Cannot get Journal to export to email. I have sent several messages with no response. I attempted to get a refund but cannot submit request. All it will do is transfer me to the developer which is all in Chinese.  No help.

### 1/5 — To the developer – please contact me! Lost years of journal entries when my phone broke

*2022-03-02, version 1.6*

I pay for this journal app and have been journaling with it for years. My phone died, or broke, and I lost years of valuable, precious journal entries.

### 5/5 — Memory helps

*2020-03-14, version 1.6*

So helpful for my husband’s mild dementia! I have pictures and tags for him and he can access by himself on his iPad.

### 5/5 — very nice!!

*2020-03-07*

👍👍🎊

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2018-01-15, version 1.6*

Journal Apps are Amazing and are better then writing in one

### 2/5 — Hmmmmmm Totally Lazy App 😐

*2017-07-14*

Yeah, I'm hardly gonna PAY to unlock fonts that are already part of my device and then just back-up my entries to email!
I mean... seriously? How about giving me something for my money?! Such as a proper iCloud service with sync, a few unique handwriting fonts that would liven things up a bit and some original back-ground designs? Maybe then I'd be willing to pay a small subscription. It's a shame, cos this App has potential but the developer obviously can't be bothered!

### 5/5 — Passcode

*2017-05-29, version 1.6*

Trying to unlock passcode option

### 5/5 — reason for rating...

*2017-05-18, version 1.6*

if i don't rate this app five stars i can't unlock pass code option.

### 5/5 — Easy

*2017-04-10, version 1.3*

Super easy to use, and clean design. Love it

### 5/5 — 好軟件，符合手寫日記的習慣

*2017-04-09, version 1.3*

難得的好軟件，符合所需、寫作習性、兼顧民族風格，很棒！
