User Reviews

Users broadly praise Perspective for its simple, intuitive UI, pleasing design, and built-in mindfulness features like prompts and mood tracking. They value the lack of ads and the ability to journal daily without nags. Major recurring concerns are the absence of export/backup options to preserve years of entries, uncertainty about ongoing development and potential discontinuation, and the risk of data loss during outages.

Pros

Easy-to-use and well-organized UI that makes daily journaling quick and intuitive.
Aesthetically pleasing design that users enjoy and find motivating to journal.
Mindfulness-forward features: prompts, mood tracking, gratitude entries, and weekly reflections.
No ads or mandatory paywalls; a donation-based model that keeps core features accessible.

Cons

No built-in export or easy backup for years of entries, making migration difficult.
Uncertain ongoing development: long gaps in updates and concerns the app could be discontinued again.
History or data can be lost during outages or if the app is temporarily unavailable.

Love this app…I record everything on here. Day by day as it happens

I downloaded this app years ago and was thrilled to find one so easy to use, organize, and aesthetically pleasing as this. It became a constant in my life to remain mindful and make connections. The unfortunate part is that it stopped updating years ago and it’s only a matter of time before it’s gone completely. In all that time I’ve never found any way to export or save the seven years of information. So as the days pass, it’s a painstaking task to copy/paste entry by entry into another platform.

I downloaded this app back in 2019 after trying maybe a dozen other apps first; but this one really nails a lot of things for me, like an easy to use UI that make seeing how my days went super easy, interests I can checkmark on each day I give attention, built-in questions to be even more mindful of my life, I could go on. However, the app went online for (I think) almost over a year, and it devastated me to lose 6 years worth of my journal entries. I’m more than happy now that it’s back, and I’d absolutely keep writing in it now if it weren’t for a few factors: Namely, the app doesn’t get updated anymore as far as I can tell, so the new features you can vote on to have added (or even donate for) will likely never come. The developers haven’t updated anything on the official social media since coming back this year, which worries me that the app might go offline again; maybe for good next time. And lastly, there may not be enough other people downloading the app for the developers to justify continued effort on this app, even if I personally love it. If anything, I’d gladly pay a one time fee if it meant the app gets continued support, but I’m not sure there’s enough people like me out there. In essence; great app. I love it. I wish it got more updates and community engagement/support so I can sleep knowing that my years of entries won’t be missing the next morning.
