User Reviews

Users praise Card Diary for its clean design, strong tagging/search, and easy daily entries with photos, plus reliable cross-device syncing and long-term stability. However, frequent crashes after updates, a shift to subscription pricing, readability and typography problems, security concerns, and bugs affecting media/navigation are commonly mentioned. Overall, the app is valued for simplicity and archival usefulness, but concerns about stability, pricing, and feature gaps temper enthusiasm.
Pros
  • Clean, minimal, and elegant UI that feels unobtrusive and pleasant to use.
  • Strong tagging and search capabilities that make it easy to find and reference past entries (useful for future posts or videos).
  • Daily diary view with photos on a single day, creating a visually appealing and easy-to-skim record.
  • Reliable cross-device syncing (iCloud) across iPhone, iPad, and Mac, with many users noting life-time purchases or long-term usability.
  • Overall reliability and long-term usefulness, with many users staying with the app for years and praising its stability.
Cons
  • Instability and crashes, especially after updates; some users cannot open the app or experience frequent bugs.
  • Shift from lifetime access to a subscription model; perceived bait-and-switch and frustration about having to pay again for features.
  • Readability and typography issues (text too light or hard to read, font choices not consistently saved, etc.).
  • Security/privacy concerns (loss of password protection after updates; lack of biometric lock; general worries about data protection).
  • Buggy behavior affecting media/navigation (photos sometimes don’t display; desire for easier navigation across days/months and more features like widgets)

Subject: Bug Report: Korean IME Issue After Using iOS Dictation Dear Card Diary Team, I would like to report a bug related to Korean text input. Device: * iPhone 14 Pro Language: * Korean Issue When I use iOS Dictation (voice typing) to write a diary entry in Card Diary, everything is entered correctly at first. However, if I later try to edit the dictated text using the keyboard, Korean character composition becomes broken. For example, when I try to type “우”, the keyboard sometimes inputs the consonant and vowel separately (such as “ㅇ” and “ㅜ”) instead of composing the syllable correctly. This issue only occurs when editing text that was originally entered using iOS Dictation. Steps to Reproduce 1. Open Card Diary. 2. Create a new diary entry. 3. Use iOS Dictation to enter Korean text. 4. Stop dictation. 5. Move the cursor into the dictated text. 6. Try editing the sentence using the Korean keyboard. 7. Korean syllable composition may fail, causing consonants and vowels to appear separately. Expected Behavior Korean text should be editable normally after using iOS Dictation, just like in Apple’s Notes app or other standard text editors. Actual Behavior After dictation, editing the text with the Korean keyboard sometimes results in broken Korean character composition. This issue makes it difficult to use Card Diary for users who rely on voice dictation for writing. I hope you can investigate and fix this issue in a future update. Thank you for your excellent app. Best regards,

this all is truly amazing and so far has been the only app i’ve been able to consistently use to regularly convey my emotions. i notice there hasn’t been an update of the app in over two years which i usually wouldn’t complain over, but i would adore the idea of this app having widgets, as i can sometimes forget the app even exists. despite this small detail, the app is one i very much enjoy. smiley face. ^_^
