I was having an issue with logging into the app with Face ID on. After emailing customer service, they were very responsive with my problem and after reviewing a screen capture video, were able to identify the problem and fix it.

I’ve been looking for a journaling app that has prompts but not the same prompt over and over again. I can only come up with so many things I’m grateful for lol. This has a lot of good prompts, preloaded with 200 and you can add more, and I do like the idea of getting to compare my old answers to my new ones in a few months
