MacJournal for iPhone Reviews

Really wanted to like it

I have been trying to use the app, between phone, pad and Mac. I bought all of these applications. The idea is great, love the encryption and the wifi sync. But there are just so many bugs and the sync never seems to work right. I kept going to back ups looking for missing stuff. Wish it was tested more.

Loss of data

This app is dangerous. leads to permeant lost data if you syc or Dropbox between computers. They have tried to fix the issue but not Stay away

Unstable & Crashes

Misplaced Rebel

It used to me better but the latest version crashes and is unstable. i don’t trust it with my data.

Is not compatible with iOS 8

cdzuff

Rather pathetic iPhone version of a very cranky Mac app. Every update of the Mac version causes some form of data loss. The iPhone version simply doesn't work. It's too bad. The original MacJournal was a pretty good program.

Crashes in iOS 8

It's an ok app. I'd give it 3 stars most of the time. However, since upgrading to iOS 8, it won't launch (automatically crashes).

Manual sync annoying

Baulas

A decent way to take your notes with you if you use macjournal. But automatic sync would be easier to remember to do

Duplicate entries frustrating

Developer still hasn't fixed the problem of multiple duplicate entries being created when using a database synced via Dropbox. Very frustrating and makes me worry about database corruption.

Amazing Program if Bugs Were Fixed

I cannot decided

I really enjoy using Mac Journal. However, it scares me that there are are so many bugs in the app that make blank duplicate entries, preference windows that cannot be exited, and journal inconsistencies. I use the app and desktop version everyday. But I also check to make sure all my journal entries are still there everyday. It shouldn't have to be that way. Faster updates would be appreciated.

dissatisfied

Mac journal for the iPhone Day of week is not in sync with corresponding day, example: 16 December would show a Wednesday instead of Tuesday, very frustrating. I contacted the vendor but they could not replicate it and for that there was no resolution; sent screenshot as well still nothing. Other issues also too numerous to mention. I had purchased the desktop version In hope that I could use both the iOS and the Mac version to sync together much like that of the palm pilot in the old days. Incidentally, the Mac OS version works very well and is very stable.

Used to be good but not any more

I used to love this program and rave about it to everyone. It used to be the best, most versatile journal app for iOS and Mac desktop. Now the iOS version is so buggy it's worthless. It locks up, won't let you change the topic or even see it, and some screens have no way out. If they could get it back to the way it was before iOS 7 it would be amazing and worth every penny. Now it's not even good if it were free.
