Ratings and reviews

It's a pretty basic journal app when compared to something like Diarium. The AI implementation is okay but I would actually like it to be more involved. One issue I do have is that every 10-15 seconds, the cursor jumps all the way to the end of the entry. It isn't a big deal as I'm typing the entry, but if I go back to edit a part of an entry I have to be quick about it or move the cursor back up each time it jumps to the end again.

Great concept, but a text editor bug makes the app greatly frustrating. It disrupts the flow of writing, as the cursor jumps to the end when I try to edit, making it a battle to fix typos. I've also noticed that when inserting text via Gboard's Writing Tools, it may also duplicate text or wipe what you've written all together. While I'm neutral on the AI reflections, the core writing experience needs to be fixed. The app has great potential, but this fundamental bug needs to be addressed.

Excellent app - I've been waiting for a native Pixel journal! It would be nice to also be able to add Google calendar / Keep notes to an entry. Also, maybe saving some additional metadata like the weather (when adding a location) could be helpful.
