I've been an avid journal-er for close to 10 years. The insights that Rosebud is able to pull from my entries and customize the prompts to explore issues deeper has been a game changer. Often I would look at my journaling as a chore, whereas now, I look forward to carving out my time in the morning and the evening with Rosebud to capture and process my thoughts. I was sold 2 days into the trial for Premium. If you want to unlock your journaling to the next level, then GET THIS APP!

I am really impressed by this app, and the premium subscription is worth the money. It gives you deep insight into yourself and anything you journal, even helping relate my Bible verse of the day. However, even with a paid subscription there is a daily limit to how much deep thinking the app can do. Just opening journals can count against your daily message limit. I feel like paying a subscription fee should come with the ability to use the service to it's fullest extent.

We're happy to hear how Rosebud is helping you gain insights and connect with your daily Bible verses. Currently, there is a daily quota, similar to limits set by other AI products, due to the high costs of running the AI infrastructure but we hope to add more flexibility to these limits as AI costs continue to become more accessible 😊

This app has been a life changer for me. There was one afternoon where it wouldn't work for me and their customer service responded immediately and didn't stop until it was working again. I have the paid version and the fact that it remembers your history and frequently refers to it along your journey is something that means a lot to me. You can choose the tone of the therapist and feedback is always comprehensive and detailed. The interaction makes journaling fun and not a burden.
