Editors’ Notes

It’s hard to make the best even better, but the sequel to Day One lives up to expectations—and then some. The app keeps its interface streamlined but adds a wealth of new valuable features. Your journal entries contain all sorts of information—you can geolocate them, add tons of photos to each entry, and even see your day’s fitness activity. Switch over to the beautiful new photo view when you’re ready to see your world at a glance.

The best digital journaling experience

I use this app since it came out. Been here through all the changes and all, and even if I don’t agree with every direction developers take on, I still consider this to be the best digital journal experience, the only one that doesn’t make me wanting to go back to paper immediately - and in fact it corresponds great with the paper. Love you and hope your product will be on for years xx

Pretty nice, but I have some issues

In general, app is ok, it does what it should, but 1. I have to idea how to easily make the text regular size when i have only couple of words in the entry, now I have to apply different style and click it once again, strange 2. Polish version of the app is simply horrible, it is even worse than just google translate, I’d like to change the language to English only for this application, without changing the system language 3. Interface looks a bit old, like from many years ago, some of it look even like the iOS 6 in my opinion 4. There is a problem with specifying coordinates, I have for sure properly working gps, in every other app, and this one sometimes added entry with 0 0 location, the permission is set to “always”

No, unfortunately when I tried to use the app it’s even worse. When I don’t give permissions to location every time I enter map I receive the modal to turn on that permission, why? I only want to see the locations I entered manually. When I for instance try to see the history of locations I receive a new entry containing those information written.

Eh, I see there is no a good app for daily journaling on the market
