Day One App Reviews

Great App, if you want to journal this is the ticket. Simple to use, yet powerful enough not to have a list of limitations orneed a bunch of workarounds. The locations and photos really help in making it more “alive” , as opposed to just boring record keeping sort of interfaces. The app just makes it so easy to record whatever you like..!! Is a for sure must have..!!!

This is a fantastic app, specifically: - The reminder feature set to pop-up every morning (optional) - Ease of use - Cloud sync - Multiple journal creation - Easy to read layout My only issue is with the geotagging feature. It seems the integration with Apple Maps isn’t all there. Getting the correct (or any) location attached to an entry takes a few attempts with way too many clicks. It’s strange given how awesome the rest of the app is. In any case, best journaling app out there.

I balked at paying for the new version, but I’m glad I did. I like having two journals (one personal and other for work). I use it almost everyday and love how it looks.

I had used Day One for a few notes, but now that there are more journals and more pictures allowed, I love it. I use it for my travel journal, daily journal and just private notes for myself. I love how easy it is to use it. Thanks for a great app!

I have used Day One every day since 2011. It is fundamental to my process and I can’t recommend it highly enough. The latest upgrade? Amazing - particularly multiple journals. Use it for daily thoughts, image capture, planning, whatever you need. It makes recording what you want to record easier than any other app in a beautiful, clean interface. I can’t imagine my iOS/Mac experience without it.

Though expensive, the app seems to be working flawlessly and is syncing well. Loving it over my old standby MacJournal that began to corrupt when it synced.

I absolutely love this journaling app. It is incredibly easy and convenient to use. The sync between my devices is seamless. Fantastic app!!!

The MacBook version is equally as amazing as the mobile app, all the same bells and whistles one would want from a journalling application. I cannot think of any more…the mark up and down, exporting etc. I know a lot of amateurs use Day One, but Day One is designed for the professional moreover. Love it. Love it. Love it.

Well worth every penny. Loved version 1. This one lets you do multiple journals, way better and multiple photos per entry. Honestly, does everything it advertises. Purfecto thanks !

Great app I’d recommend to anyone, but after the latest update all the formatting in the timeline view is buggy (on every app - desktop, ipad, and iphone). It’s normal if you go to view an entry, and it’s normal if you are editing an entry, but in timeline view all your text just turns into an unpredictable mish mash, with paragraphs and headings run together in a single line, and indentation and bullets/lists aligning unpredictably. Please fix!

I switched from writing in notepads to DayOne Journal about 2 months ago, and I just love the application. The fact that I can have multiple journals is great, I have 3 main journals, one for my business, a personal one and I started a food journal. I also did journal our summer family trip. Adding pictures is quite easy and brings your journal to life. The only feature I have not tried yet is having the app in my phone to sync with my Mac, but I might be trying that in the future. My phone has very limited storage, so I am not sure yet if I will.

I’ve used the classic version for years and it’s been great. Only until recently have I had a need for a password protected journal program that supports multiple journals so I would have bought this when it came out as V.2 but the price was just and still is too steep for me. Granted it’s a great program but even on the iOS10 it still bugs out in viewing and selecting on my iPhone 6SPlus. It’s the most expensive app i’ve ever purchased and I think it’s worth a good price but $55 even at the discounted price is still too much in my opinion. I would have easily paid $20 with it no problem and ages ago. I like the photos idea however it’s going to take up a lot of space on my hard drive eventually so that’s not a plus. Perhaps some auto photo-conversion to smaller and lighter thumbs when uploaded would be nice. I’d also like to be able to colour and highlight my text. I can’t do that. The formatting is still pretty simple for the steep price. Honestly I wouldn’t have paid the money if I didn’t need to use more than one journal and I was already used to this one. I hope that the bugs get addressed and we can finally colour and highlight our text one day.

I used to journal all the time, in paper, on blogs … and Day One is the first app that has really nailed the experience down in a single cohesive form. It’s made me appreciate the use of Markdown for featureful but simple formatting, and of multiple journals (and why I’d have them vs. a single journal with categories) It’s made me appreciate the effective use of cloud storage, since I can continue writing into my journal as I seamlessly switch between devices. As a primarily text-driven person, I’ve started to take advantage of throwing pictures in, sometimes even of using the other nice-to-have features like activity notes and ‘what am I listening to’ functionality. It’s not that I’d never thought about it, but Day One’s UI is comfortable and safe, the kind of thing where I want to explore the nooks and crannies and not worry about how it will mess up the core workflow of putting my thoughts down before they escape forever. Day One has carved out its place in the “Lifestyle” app section, such that it has found a place in my brain and my heart as I go along the everyday leveraging journals for my own mental health.

I’ve been really enjoying Day One 2.1 — I’ve got more 1200 entries, and version 2’s support for multiple journals (as well as multiple photos per entry) has radically improved my use of Day One. Sync has been fast — nearly instant, in fact — and really reliable (I’ve never lost an entry), and they continue to polish Day One with regular updates.

2月4日の初日に比べ幾分改善されたので修正します。Day One Classic を持っているユーザーにとっては依然として値段分の価値がないのは変わりませんが…。 Day One Sync がうまく動かず、最終のものが同期されない。→ これは解決されました。まだ不具合はありますが…。 フォントサイズが大きすぎる。 日と曜日がアーティクルリストで見きれる。 Day One Sync does not work properly. -> Still has some problems. Font size are too big and bigger than the Day One Classic. Days are not always shown in the article list.

Classicからのユーザーです。販売元からのDMでDAYONE2の2/17までの販売開始記念半額キャンペーンを知り、先ほど購入しました。 DMの案内やAPP STOREの価格表示では2400円（定価の半額）で買える筈なのですが、購入ボタンをポチると3600円に価格が変わったと表示されました。 不安に思いながらも、アプリの説明に記述されている**Launch Sale! 50% off for 1 week only!** (Sale extended until Feb 17th to assist our users that have not yet heard about the new app, and those having trouble purchasing due to errors in the Mac App Store.)を見て、App storeのエラーと判断してポチったのですが、アカウント情報で購入履歴を確認すると、やはり3600円で購入したことになってしまっていましたので、これから購入される方は留意した方が良いかもしれません。（App storeに問題報告入れましたが、未だ回答はありません） Classicからの移行やSyncに関しては自分の使い方では問題なさそうですが、Classicのままでも十分かな的な印象を受けており、★３にしました。 （価格面で不安にさせられているので心情的には★１にしたい位です。3600円なら買わなかった・・）

I’m Journaling with Version 2.0.3. Weather string and count down timer to synchronize are not set in proper local language. My local language is Japanese, but in version 2.0.3, those strings appear in Arabic. My Second language is set in English. So, I want to DAYONE to select second or 3rd matched language in preference if the first language is not matched. バージョン2.0.3を使っているのだが、天気と次回シンクロまでのカウントダウンが、言語設定に従っていない。 言語設定では日本語にしているのだが、2.0.3では、アラビア文字で表示されてしまう。 2番目の言語設定は英語になっているので、もし1番目の設定が対応言語でない場合は、2番目以降でマッチした言語で表示して欲しい。

Sry. I need an auto capitalisation. And I think it would better if we could record our mood very day. Just like MrMood and the iMoodJournal on iPhone.

New DayOne is very useful. More Categories and Color help me add more topic for my research for my academic and novel writing. Love this new feature- it is really worth.

I’ve been writing for every day now since January 1 of this year. Day One has been an excellent tool. In most cases, you go about your day, passing thoughts and ideas come an go, and nagging desires are easily forgotten and brushed aside. Writing a couple sentences or paragraphs each day has made all the difference in this sense. I better understand myself and what I want with my life. Day One makes this process slick as butter.
