It's good if you only have a few words to say

I like the style of the app, but it has glitches. The one that irks me the most is not being able to see what I write, when I go past I'd say 100 words. The words start to disappear then reappear after writing so many words after that. It always looks like I never finish my entries, when reality I did. If they fixed this problem, I'd have no problems with it at all.

It very user friendly

It asks me to go to the settings, can't find them. Ask me to edit settings for password recovery, no keyboard so can't enter anything.

A few changes would make this awesome!

This app just gets worse and worse with every update. Now I can't even type one line without it constantly changing pages, duplicating pages and staying open to my last entry even if I set it to the current day. Don't bother with this one. It's horrible.

Not good

happy jigsaw

I downloaded this app a few months ok and it just worked ok. With all of the recent updates this app is just horrible. I write out my thoughts, serious thoughts, log out of the app and come back in to add additional thoughts then find that it has only saved a small portion of what I've written. This is just horrible!!!

I am just sick?!

Another Entry: If I could just retrieve my entries this would help in my situation. The setting feature does not work properly. Therefore, unable to access the Dropbox. Should I continue to write? The last memo from you was dated May 2015. What's up with that? New Entry: It's still not working! I was able to type in several sentences before the app crashes out! The Dropbox setting, unfortunately, does not work either. If I could just retrieve my previous entries that would be a lot for me. I have not read any information from your web developers recently. Am I missing the memos? I am angry!? New Entry: It's been awhile since getting the initial instructions not to delete app, development team was working to fix bugs....... Are you making any progress to resolve the issues or it is a done deal and you are putting off telling us, the data is gone and it can't be retrieved? I've pretty much come to this conclusion. How sad! I had not thought to back up my journal data. How sad and angry this makes me. New Entry: No. It's still not working! After making 6-7 strokes, the app crashes out! Also, the ability to sync information remains impossible to do so. I'm just going to have to accept the fact that I have lost my access to my journal data. This is sad! Very sad. New Entry: This is terrible! Unable to sync information using setting option. Although it says synced, the folder is empty. If I try to make a stroke to enter data, the app crashes out. ? New Entry: As suggested by a few, I have not deleted the app. Recent update has no impact. Cannot access my past entries. The app continues to ask that I wait until the migration process is completed but later crashes out. Waiting desperately. New entry: Any new information or should I write this off as a lost? I'm still hopeful, right now. Waiting to hear from you. I'm unable to retrieve any data from anywhere! I have been using this app for more than 13 months. It was working just fine and suddenly it stopped. I am just sick and angry. This app crashed and as a result of the crash, I've lost all of my entries. Please! DONOT PURCHASE! Poor! Can you bring back the old App?

Last update made more bugs I think

I had been using this app for a few months. I really liked it. I did the update and now the screen flashes as I'm trying to type. It sometimes won't let me place my curser into a spot to edit. Some ads flash to whole screen randomly and I loose what I had just edited. I thought the problem was the ads so was going to try and purchase the app to remove the ads, but it gave no price and was going to process my purchase without telling me how much I was paying- so I backed out of the purchase. Please fix soon.

Do not use this!

Update (August 12): the app is now working on my iPhone, but because the app on my iPad is still crashing, nothing has been backed up on Dropbox. That means the diary on my iPhone is blank. Update (August 3): Nothing has changed, and emails to the publisher have not gotten any reply. It still isn't backing up to Dropbox either. There is some important information, so I am only keeping this app just in case I can copy and save the few months in another place. Update (July 14): I have tried again...AND IT IS STILL SCREWED UP!!! Now, when I go in it is asking me to set a passcode, which I do, but then it boots me out without saving the passcode. That is happening every time, which is stopping me from copying the entries to put somewhere else. And this is NOT updating to Dropbox! ? Update ( June 21): It is almost a full month since my last entry on this review. This app still has not been fixed!!! The only reason I am keeping it is to try and copy entries to another program, but I get booted out after a few seconds. Update: The app does seem to have my old entries and attachments, but it still is only backing up 75% and letting me use it for less than a minute before booting me out. This desperately needs another update to care of these problems. Original review: All of my entries are back, but with how badly this has gone I am going to copy all of my entries to another source and stop using this app. If you want to keep a diary which is easy to back up, do like I was doing before I found this app; make an email address and only use it to send yourself emails like a diary. That way you have your entries backed up in Sent, Inbox, and even on two email addresses.
