User Reviews

Users praise Journal! for its simple, clean interface and calendar-based journaling that keeps daily entries approachable. The main drawbacks are persistent keyboard hiding during typing and update-induced regressions that corrupt or erase months of notes. Other desired improvements include cross-device syncing and more reliable export/print features, but the most consistently mentioned issues relate to typing and data integrity after updates.
Pros
  • Simple, clean, minimal UI.
  • Calendar integration for easy daily entries and date-based navigation.
  • Writing-focused journaling experience that feels exactly right for a basic journal.
  • Date-tap editing makes it easy to view/edit an entry on any day.
Cons
  • Keyboard repeatedly hides while typing, disrupting entry flow.
  • Update regressions corrupt or erase months of notes and degrade data readability.

I’m happy that I can keep a journal but it’s unfortunate that you cannot print or export any of the data you enter. It says you can in settings but it never works. I use this to keep a journal of my time and events with my children. I may need it for court one day. Suggestions? Is there a fix for this?

I wanted something that was a fusion between a calendar and a simple notepad and got it - in a well thought out and beautifully clean package! The title appears when you tap on the calendar date and is easily editable from there. Go into the journal entry card for that day and start typing — if you type below the keyboard, just touch on the colored part of the card and scroll. The only bug for me is that when I’m done typing I have to exit out of the program then restart it so that the keyboard disappears and I can accept the entry. No big deal. I’m loving this app!
