more Trying to keep a journal of specific and I things I attempt to do in my “busy“ schedule. This app, free if you don’t wanna buy the developers a cheap coffee, is a great way to do it.I would ask for anupgrade to allow photos to be attached. I said that this is a 100% great app.

Thank you
I really like the layout of this app. I haven’t even fully explored all the features yet. But I have had half of an entry disappear and an entire entry disappear. This is totally not okay, and I’m knocking off two stars just for that. I suggest backing up important writing. Hopefully they fix this because it’s otherwise very nice. One thing I like is that you can write multiple entries for the same date. This makes it not only useful as a diary/journal, but you can use it for other works and it saves the date that you started working on it, which is perfect for my poetry writing.
Developer Response Hi Thanks for your feedback . The data loss issue in the App has been resolved. Please update to the latest version. We welcome more feedback and suggestions
