Not for journal writing
Does not work well with Apple pencil. All writing attempts to convert to type text, and this app handles it poorly. You may spend more time working to correct mis-conversions and typos than you do “journaling”. Writes about as well as the Newton. Other AI features can be done outside of this app via other models in the marketplace including open source. I regret making this purchase.

Sometimes the application interface is too buggy. It does not let me select the text, for example I may switch to another window and then I will not be able to edit or select the text. I'm not sure still whether when you finish your writing, it becomes uneditable, because I was able to edit past content in some occasions but not always. I'm really puzzle when I can update past entry and when not. Also I'm puzzle why the interface breaks in such a way. I also had 2-3 crashes of the Mac App in the last week or so.

Terrible
They'll go into your account in the middle of the night and take all of your money that's set aside for bills and won't reply, Apple won't refund you and your left with an app asking you how you feel? Horrendous

Trial ends today they already charged me
The trial ends today, February 21st. It is 7pm and I have already been charged for a year. I don't think tricky trial is an act of a stoic person

Ruined interface
What was once a beautiful journaling app, is still ruined by AI sales buttons trying to get more money from you, despite many people have been complaining about this for months. The developers seem greedy and don't care about user experience. Sad to see a beautiful app deteriorating like this.

Recognizing different languages
I love the app! One request though: I write in my first language which is not English. So my focus points of the day are all customized into my first language, for authenticity. And so, when I do the morning preparation (mostly every morning), it doesn't really relate to the focus points I have chosen, but keeps giving me generic prompts about gratitude. It is good to be reminded about gratitude regularly; however, I would like the app to be able to recognize different languages and react to custom focus points.

Great, but there is a big performance issue
I love just about everything this app has to offer. But journaling is my favorite feature by far, I use it often. However, I can write lengthy entries and it seems like this causes a big performance drop with the app. The app begins to crawl, keystrokes start to fall out of order, words become jumbled. It isn't a great experience. It gets to the point where you have to stop writing because it's unusable. If the developer could fix this issue, I'd definitely give this app the 5-stars it deserves.

Very unintuitive app there's nothing going on in the app at all 😐

Too bad they don’t have any text formatting - no bold, italic, nothing.
It's otherwise intuitive to use, cool free templates and the best user interface I've tried so far. However, not being able to format the text in any way is not for me.
