Oniri - Your Dream Journal

This is an amazing app with such a beautiful design and in-depth statistics for your dreams. The screen slowly changes colors as you type your dream out, which is fun. They also organize your dream into multiple sections, such as Emotions, People, Locations, etc. which is very helpful for noticing dream signs. There are 12 different alarms for you to choose from, each with their own theme. This gives each user a chance to find an alarm that works for them, which is amazing. The way it organizes your dreams and helps you interpret your dream signs and emotions is fantastic, and they even have a library of beautiful images to choose for your dreams, making them easy to find and define with just a picture. They even have a reality check feature which reminds you to do reality checks throughout the day. If you’re looking for some inspiration to start writing your dreams down, this app will give you everything you need to be consistent. Worth every penny.

I’ve had this app for a year and never used the “what does this mean to you feature”. I decided to go through a dream in detail, running through every object and theme and emotion, in detail, analyzing it. To my dismay, the next dream I did this with the answers to “car” were automatically filled in with my previous answer. I changed it, and it changed it for the other dream too! I found a lot of insight using this feature, but that means nothing if its exactly the same for each dream. “Car” means something specific in one dream than another, and going through these analyzing each object helped me put together a cohesive summary at the end. Now I’m not going to use this feature. I checked settings to see if I could turn off the saving one definition for an object or place etc, and there is none. If that’s how other people want to do it, that’s fine, I don’t want that feature taken away from them to where they have to type the same thing every time, but maybe give an OPTION to turn off saving the definition every time as the universal “what it means to you”

First, I’d like to say - I LOVE THIS APP! You’ve done an amazing job on the interface. It is so easy to use even for a beginner. I have always had a very active dream life going all the way back to the age of 4. I recall my dreams from that age as well - like it was yesterday. I love recording them in my Dream Journal and uncovering the deeper, hidden meanings. I just finished testing out your app with a dream I had this morning. It worked perfectly. I especially love the addition of emotions (negative and positive). Kudos! I do have a suggestion. Before I paid for the full version, I did a test of the Export to PDF. As soon as I saw how easily it worked, I uploaded the full version of your app. But then, I was disappointed that the interpretation (my responses and notations) did not export. Thus began the painful process of copy/pasting between your app and my Dream Journal in Microsoft Word. This was a total bummer. I can wholeheartedly understand your not wanting to share your database freely but my suggestion is, please allow our personal responses, notations, and interpretations to be exported with our dream and elements. My hope is to utilize your app on a daily basis for a quick noting of my dreams with the ultimate intention of exporting them to my Dream Journal on my Mac. I hope this makes sense! Either way, I’m very impressed and it was well worth the $2.99 I paid!

So I loved this app. I would write down what happened in my dreams on the mornings I would remember them. It worked flawlessly. However this morning, it asked me if I wanted to update to a new version to which I did. When the updated version was downloaded, I started to input the dream I had. I wrote a long, DETAILED description of the events, the story, the people, places, etc like I always do. And that’s the thing about this app. It allows me to type in AS MUCH as I want with no limit, which is nice. I am also very cautious when it comes to making sure my info is saved, so I will save my post multiple times throughout my typing process. That way, IF something gets deleted somehow, I can just go back to resuming to what had been saved LAST. This was NOT one of those times. I had saved my post MULTIPLE times while I continued to write my post. When I was done, I made sure to save the final draft....again just to be sure! And guess what happened?? NOTHING SAVED! I had written paragraphs and written such a detailed post about my dream and it’s just POOF...GONE. So disappointing and not reliable.

I’ve been recording my dreams for a while but I was always dissatisfied with how the app looked. This setup is perfect and cute, and it makes me want to write my dreams down more often. I quickly got the premium version and have been very please except with the “wake back to bed” feature. I actually really love the idea, but the timer doesn’t go down with my phone being off, which is sucky when I can’t have my phone running the entire night. Also, the alarms are a little bit too loud, I tried the “stay still” method, but the alarm was way too piercing and loud. I even tried picking the quietest one. I suggest no loud piano keys banging randomly. Otherwise, this app is amazing. I also suggest a help button because some things are not specific and I can’t understand them very well.
