• Record your voice or your surroundings to add even more context.

Audio won’t play

I just woke up from a dream this morning and thought to record it on the journal app, instead of the VOICE MEMO as I usually do, and didn’t have time to listen, and later when I came to hear it out it just doesn’t play. I recorded another one, that works. Just this one, and It’s veryyy important to me. Have you ever thought of being able to add recordings to the app and also to add a share button (if I want to share my recordings/journal page).

Like I love the idea. Just it has to be improved.

Some improvements

The app is great and I am grateful for using it. But I would like to see a much useful app.

But I have some suggestions:

Implement a search function to easily find specific notes.

Introduce filtering options to categorize notes based on media content (photos, videos), tags, and other criteria.

Integrate drawing capabilities similar to the Notes app.

Establish a connection with the Health app to track fitness activities, and also the ability to log state of mind as on Apple watch

Provide monthly or yearly statistics on mood and fitness trends for journaling purposes.

These suggestions are well-aligned with the goal of enhancing the app's functionality and providing a more comprehensive note-taking experience. I'll relay your feedback to the development team for consideration in future updates.

Some bugs

The app title is placed on the left side on the screen and if you scroll through posts, the title remains on the left side on the screen instead of moving on the center part, as in all other apps.
You cannot view posts in the iPhone’s calendar.
There are only three colours available, which cannot reflect the mood of a particular day.
