Journal‪!‬ 4+

I love the very simple look to the whole app. You are able to have colored accents which make it pretty but I feel it might be a bit too basic.
If you are looking for an app that solely for writing entries, this is the best for the job! Although I am personally looking for something more interesting.

I wanted something that was a fusion between a calendar and a simple notepad and got it - in a well thought out and beautifully clean package! The title appears when you tap on the calendar date and is easily editable from there. Go into the journal entry card for that day and start typing — if you type below the keyboard, just touch on the colored part of the card and scroll. The only bug for me is that when I’m done typing I have to exit out of the program then restart it so that the keyboard disappears and I can accept the entry. No big deal. I’m loving this app!

I gave this a try but I found it less useful than what I’ve been doing with just the Apple Calendar. I’ve created an all day event named ‘Today’ for each day of the year that repeats yearly. Each day I can open this event, see what I was doing in previous years and add a note about the current day. Each entry begins with the year and the day of the week. Among other things I add notes on the weather. These can be searched easily.
