Good to start

If you are someone who is new to write journals, so yeah, this is your go to place and without any doubt, just go for it, but my small recommendation would be please add good recommendations since it is already using our past experiences that we have dead earlier, but yeah, I would really appreciate that to be added in a much frequently and also one more point that whenever I write, I would love to add my photographs or my recordings or anything in between while I’m writing. It’s not like I should be able to add on my headers, and then if I want to revisit, I would just go back to my head and then swipe swipe, swipe and swipe.

Worth using the app

U need a proper journal to express your feelings. Express whatever u feel like. When we enter into this generation where we do most of our work in our smart phones, u hardly have time to sit down and pen down your feelings in a diary. There’s can’t be a better opportunity the way Apple created this journal where they took the art of writing into a new level. U just don’t need to write it down. U can even express your feelings by uploading your voice or uploading photos or videos of a particular situation. And the best part is u can even keep your journal secured through password protection.

Lacks a few essential features

1) You can sort or add a calendar like layout so that people can see a calendar with dates on which you have written a journal highlighted, which make for easier navigation of your journal entries.
2) A search bar would be really appreciable so that you can search for a specific entry using keywords.
3) Lastly, an option to make a custom layout for the journal entry. Sort of like how we get suggestions, if we could write our own text in suggestions as sort of a heading for the Journal entry. By this one will be able to easily recognise our journals through custom labels / headings.
