AJournal - Planner & Journal 4+

Update to the “update”:
The syncing makes all the difference! So happy now! Thank you!

Update: need this to sync between devices without complicated steps. This is it guys! Everything you wanted in a planner app. I cant believe I found this especially it isn’t the first app suggested. I love that it used the Apple Pencil case because it has a pencil! Here are some things I am hoping will come: 1) be able to add your own stickers (but now you can use the clipboard to put in the ones you already have). 2)be able to drag and drop from procreate or any other app, like other art apps, and from files app I would be great (again, I can use clipboard now to copy and paste, but having it streamlined in drag and drop would be awesome. 3)a widget would be SO AWESOME That’s it! It’s a dream come true. I’ve made my own digital planner etc, but having to view all your calendar events and having to be able to insert and draw all over the lines is awesome. And being able to sketch with the Pencil tool in the Apple Pencil case is great. This is what I hoped Pencil planner would be but better since I can make my own layout that works for me. Again, thank you developers, I am sooooooo happy!

I really enjoy all the customization offered on the app! It’s so easy to make your own template and continue adjusting it. It’s also easy to access past entries. I am very much a paper to pencil person when it comes to planners but once I made a good habit of opening this app, I never looked back. The customization made it easier to remind myself what to write down and makes it easier for me to jot things down or draw things throughout the day. I also enjoy how it integrates the Apple Pencil. I don’t pay for any features but I definitely would to be able to make more pages if I needed to. There have been some times when there was a little bit of bugginess, but nothing major. If I open my iPad upright, the template will load oddly or sometimes the day will open and reset to the first of the month. Nothing that can’t be fixed by exiting and reopening the app. Great app overall!

I have been using this app for the last several weeks and overall it is a good app that I would recommend, however with a few small tweaks it could be amazing. If the developer added the ability to change the time frames for some of the modules I would give this 5 stars. For example I use ATracker as well and I like to keep daily, weekly, and monthly track of my time. In AJournal I am unable to see that there is only pre-defined time ranges of daily and weekly for my tasks/time spent and that includes everything, so if my task has a daily, and weekly goal it shows both goals. Would like to be able to separate those into different days. Also for the habit module there is only a monthly option available, I would really like to edit that for daily as well as weekly and have it auto-populate if I have the task completed in ATracker for that day/week/month. If these things were added this would easily be 5 stars. As it stands now I am happy with it until I can find something that does everything I just listed.
