New Gratitude Journal

There is mostly good in this app: the ability to add a photo, the choice of creating a numbered or bullet list, and esp the daily sayings added to the end of your journal entry. However, it’s frustrating to not be able to go back and edit something already typed. In other words, although there is an edit feature, allowing you to return to your entry to add more, you can’t go back to an earlier part of your gratitude list and make changes, unless you delete everything back to the typo or error. Also, when adding one of their emojis, it weirdly puts it at the top of your list, not in, or at the end, of an entry. So far, I hv not figured out how to get rid of it either.

Thank you for being transparent and creating an app to help others get out of the rabbit hole. To users: Download it and give it a try. I have faith the developers will fix the issues in the app. To the developers: some suggestions. I have iphone 8plus. App software is up to date. Software improvement suggestions: Ability to change to correct date once entry has been made if accidentally entered on the wrong date. I had to delete the whole entry and redo completely. First rewrite. Fix the edit/delete feature with a warning sign that reads” are you sure you want to delete?” I accidentally deleted and had to rewrite it all. Second rewrite. Ability to accept pictures from internet sites that are already saved in camera roll. Took too many steps on my part to have to screen shot the photo instead for the app to register the picture in my camera roll. Thank you im grateful for the app, hope it will continue. Peace.

I really do I love the concept, I love how you can schedule a Reminder and the design. I think it’s so smart that it goes straight into a “list mode” to write down what you are grateful for. The problem is once you start using the app, I’ve found several bugs and issues that I’m sure the developers can easily fix. The first one is how when you get a notification or reminder and you tap on it the app opens but freezes. So you have to manually close the app and open it again Second is when you are writing down a list of things you are grateful for you press enter to add another bullet point but it does nothing so you do it again and it does nothing well in fact it is doing what’s supposed to do but the screen doesn’t scroll down with it so you have repeated bullet points that you have to manually enter. Can throw you off your train of thought tremendously. Third the passcode seems to lag when you enter each digit. Annoying because it’s not as fast. Face ID implementation would be great I’m shocked it doesn’t even have Touch ID. Lots of free apps do. There are other smaller ones but these are the main ones. I hope the dev can read this and get these fixed until then unfortunately it’s a 1 star app.

I was a longtime user of the original Gratitude app and switched over to this one since the old one was being discontinued. After following the instructions to port over my several-years worth of entries, it did not work and I lost everything (they said they were deleted all the old stuff as if Dec 2017). I’ve tried to make entries into the current app. Even though I receive emails from the developer to my email address, when I use the forgot my password prompt, I receive a link to resent my pw but it says it does not recognize me. When I try to login through Facebook it says I logged on from there orecioslyand would I like to try again—to no avail as it still does not recognize my credentials. I repeatedly receive the “Oops something went wrong. Sorry something went wrong please try again”. But there is no where to go for additional help. I wanted to love this app as I did the original and I do feel the developer is making her best effort but there are too many hoops to jump through and it is not seamless and simple as it should be. After many failed attempts at getting this to work I am moving to another app.

I have been using this app for over two months now it is simple and easy to just jot down few things you are grateful for. One thing I like with the app is it’s simplicity you don’t have any excuse to procrastinate , just fire it up at the end of your day list your 5 things that you are grateful for and boom you are good to go. The app also gives a good treat in form of some refreshing quotes. Honestly I would say slowly but surely this app is helping me build the attitude of gratitude which is the key ingredient for a happy life!
