Gratitude Journal (new) Hack 1.8.27 + Redeem Codes

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.

I used to love this app. Now focusing on trying to get it to work distracts so much from my gratitude entry that I deleted the app. I wasn’t finding myself happier using it, only frustrated. 1) The app says I can limit its access to certain photos OR albums on my phone. So I set up an album for use with the app. But when you tap to add a photo to your journal entry, whether you select photo or album, it takes you to the camera.
2) There is not an identifiable “enter” button to save entries do you play Russian roulette and use the back button. Some functions save when you do this, some don’t. I don’t want to retype for the third time an entry I was really inspired about the first time.
3) The updates in this app, like many to be fair, are biased in favor of less privacy, more sharing and fewer obvious buttons on the screen with a function on them. Maybe it makes for a pretty screen but I want sublime ease of use the moment I open the app. I don’t want to read instructions, I don’t want to practice, that is not where I want to spend the previous hours of my life. Make it simple, easy and obvious or I’m moving on. Also, I do not want to share the entirety of my private reflections with the world via Facebook nor the advertisers who gather conglomerate data from Google. Count me out.

I used to love this app. I’m sorry to say goodbye. I’m grateful there are other options available. Peace, out.

This app is very buggy. If I notice a typo while writing, I am unable to click on the portion of a sentence where the typo occurred to fix it - I would need to delete and re-enter the entire entry because the app does not allow you to jump to different parts of the text. I also have issues lately with the app automatically filling the previous day’s entry into the text box every time I try to create a new entry. And to make matters worse, the in-app support link does not seem to be working as it would not allow me to create an account to get support despite attempting to do so with multiple browsers and on multiple devices. I have used this app for years and put up with a variety of different bugs throughout. There are so many other ways to keep a gratitude journal, and I don’t think this app is a convenient or user-friendly one for me anymore.

Ok! Steve helped me and I have my journal back! I had used Facebook to log in. Steve suggested deleting the app and log in through Apple! I deleted. Turned off my iPad and everything is still there. Did not realize how important it was to me until I lost it. This app got me through COVID! Thank you Steve! All my precious memories are still there! Hugs to you!

I’ve checked and updated everything. It won’t let me log in through Facebook. It won’t let me set up a password using my email address because it says that address is already being used. What can I do? I miss my journaling.

I purchased this journal because I saw it on a show that said it was highly rated. I have so many bugs with it, that my patient after 3 weeks is over.
It keeps changing dates on my input. That happened right away so I triple checked every day I selected and when I go back in the app on another day the date is not what I selected, it’s changed to a day in the next week. This happens more than not.
It also is difficult to spell correct, doesn’t always work. Can’t select all and get whole list, only one item at a time, which makes it time consuming to move when the date changes. Cursor issues. For such a simple app, there are too many things wrong with it.
I can use a spreadsheet easier, which is what I will do.
I hate to give a bad review so much, especially for a gratitude journal, but the number of bugs got the best of me.

Such a nice way to stay in touch with my attitude of gratitude, by bringing my focus back to the reality of just how VERY blessed I am each day. Creating the habit of pulling up my Gratitude Journal will make my commitment to stick with journaling so much easier. This app has inspired and helped me to practice self love in other forms as well. Shifting my perspective snd continuing to focus on the good helps me to slowly become conscious and aware more often as to how I may, hopefully share the positivity and joy with others-instead of losing sight of all the beauty in my life, getting pulled into negative thought patterns. I choose the Light. ⭐️ Thank you Carla 🙏🏼

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.

This is the first journal app I have used that I have truly loved. It’s great to be able to put photos in the entries and the quotes after I’ve submitted my entry are all speaking to me, I swear! I appreciate that I can put a reminder for me to document my appreciation of the day because this year has been so difficult with mourning two important people in my life, I needed a way to stop the cycle of depression. This has been life changing for me in the few weeks I’ve used it. I do have one suggestion and that is I’d love to be able to go back and make edits or correct a word or sentence after I have logged it for the day!

Carla!

I enjoy your emails and hope I can afford you one day. I even sat in on a presentation once (you were FABULOUS).

So, um - how 'bout loving me (and I suspect MANY others) back by creating a functional mac version of your wonderful Gratitude Journal? Despite voice dictation and all improvements to smart phones - there's simply NOTHING like typing on a real keyboard with a screen that isn't a tiny (yet huge) phone. I request because I've been forced to use other, Mac-friendly jounals for 'gratitude' instead.

The thing is, I like YOURS, Carla. But I simply cannot be journaling on my phone when my mac is sitting right THERE - you know?

Right this sec is an excellent example cuz I've gotta tell you - typing this review on my mac KICKS THE PANTS off of doing so on my iPhone - it's truly easier, faster, better, all of it (kinda how I wish your life altering Gratitude Journal would be) .

I realize I can be melodramatic, so -

Just a feature request for your consideration.

(hope I made you smile)

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.
