I got this because I was tired of being bombarded with ads or premium subscription stuff when I was just trying to make a diary entry. This works fantastically. No unnecessary clutter, no distracting ads. Just a no nonsense way to quickly and easily write a journal entry.I do have a couple suggestions. In the last app I tried, you could toggle whether there was a time stamp on your note, as well as the date stamp. I’d like that I here. It’s cool to see when you made a note, like if it was morning or bedtime. If you added a time stamp, it would need to be small, elegant, and simple. So it wouldn’t distract from the clean interface. I’d also like to be able to choose the color of the words and “+” button. That would be lovely. Maybe with a color wheel or something for infinite personalization. Perhaps you could hold down on the “journal” at the top to open the color picker? I wouldn’t want to add a button. Finally, it’s a little annoying when you’re making a note and you scroll to the top too fast, closing it without saving. I’d like it if, when you scroll up to the top, it just bounces or something the first time you hit it instead of closing completely. All in all a great app, perfectly simple and distraction free. As long as that never changes, I’m happy.
Terrificly Simple

This is a great timeline journal. I've been using it for my morning pages. It's super quick and easy, it really takes the barriers to journaling away and I'm journaling more often then ever.One note, when I fill a screen, the text box doesn't scroll, so I end up typing off screen and have to manually scroll down to see what I'm typing. Not a huge thing, it could also be a setting I'm not seeing.
Best journaling app I’ve found!

This app is not only beautifully designed, clean and easy to use, but the features make it perfect for my journaling needs. I appreciate how it works on macOS too, for if I want to use a full keyboard to type or see entries on a bigger screen. And the pro features are way more than worth the cost. Thank you!

Just what I was looking for in a journaling app. Clean interface and simple input make this perfect for getting my thoughts down quickly. The memories feature is a great touch too! In the future I'd love the ability to search for words in my entries and potentially the ability to add photos as well but overall very happy with the app so far. Thanks for making it!
