Travel Journal: Photo Diary

app is free but you have to start a “free trial” or buy a membership to use anything on the app

For the most part this is usable software, although using pictures is buggy. Sometimes I load up a bunch of pics for the day’s journal and one will disappear and I get a duplicate of another. The bottom section with arrows is a mystery. Sometimes it shows blank boxes with arrows, sometimes it shows duplicates of pictures I’ve already included elsewhere, and sometimes it’s nonexistent. My biggest complaint though is that in my opinion, if you pay for a subscription, all ads should be removed. I wrote to the company via their support page asking how to remove their ads and not surprisingly did not get an answer whatsoever. I’ve tried several journaling apps over the years when we travel - and so far have been underwhelmed by all. They either charge more as you add content or they have blatantly distracting ads or just don’t work. This is somewhere in between. I’ll use it for this trip and then cancel the subscription and look for something else. Or hey … I’m a retired developer- maybe I’ll write my own.
