User Reviews

Users praise Zinnia for its rich creative toolkit and cross‑device usability, plus versatility across journaling, planning, budgeting, and scrapbooking, with PDF import/export. However, repeated concerns center on pricing: features are often behind a paid subscription, the free tier is limited, and trial-based access frustrates some users. Overall, it’s a powerful, ad‑free planner, but the cost is a common sticking point.
Pros
  • Extensive library of stickers, templates, and artistic assets for journaling and planning.
  • Excellent cross-device support with automatic resizing on iPhone, iPad, and computer.
  • Very versatile for multiple use cases (journals, planners, budgeting, scrapbooking, notes) with multiple journals.
  • Ad-free, intuitive interface with smooth typing and drawing features.
  • PDF import/annotation and export capabilities, plus active content updates from the developers.
Cons
  • Most features require a paid subscription; pricing can be a significant barrier.
  • Free tier is very limited or effectively lacks access to many journals and features.
  • Trial-based access and ongoing price discussions can be frustrating for some users.

I began using this app in 2026 and find it to be fairly straightforward and easy to use. I imported a PDF planner into Zinnia rather than create my own. I do use some of the graphics provided in the app, but find many to be incapable of resizing without losing part of the graphic. I sometimes need a very narrow text box, but most of the graphics only size by corner anchors with no option of side anchors to scale it up/down. The app is expensive in my opinion. I won’t be renewing my subscription for one major reason: there is NO search ability for any text I’ve added to my planner, which is a severe handicap when I need to find something quickly. A lot of info adds up within a yearly planner and trying to find something specific without a search option is difficult. The app should have this option, without question.

This app is a SCAM!!! They charged me $30.00 on PayPal for the subscription even though I cancelled and then had the nerve to cancel my subscription! DO NOT BUY!!!
