This is a really good app made by ethical developers who do not collect your data. There are no ads, either. The premium subscription is worth it. I do wish it had some more quality of life features, though, such as the option to free write. Maybe it does and I'm just not seeing it. Technically you CAN ignore the prompt and free write but sometimes I just want to get rid of the prompt all together, or choose a new one at least.

This app is just lovely!! The prompts are simple, but really do make you think. There are ZERO ads, which is always awesome. Overall, it's a great way to gain some perspective and allow yourself to be mindful, which of course, a lot of us need right now. I would recommend it to anyone, whatever you're new to journaling or been keeping a diary for decades.

Just downloaded because I saw good reviews and like the prompts. Sorry to say the background and font colors are terrible and a real strain to my eyes. Weird pink background with white and light blue font colors. This makes me not want to use it. A Journaling app of all things should not be a strain to read and write. Please fix this and I'll actually use it. Thank you!
