User Reviews for Alan Mind Daily Journal

Disappointed

Edit: I love developers who listen to their users. Thank you so much for the update and the fix. I genuinely love this app and I’m glad to have it back in my routine. Old review: One of my favorite things about this app was it’s simplicity and I loved it took me away from my busy day for a moment. I always wanted more moods, because we as people as more complex than their selection. However, instead of updating with an expansion on the current moods, they replace it with emojis. Already the app was crashing so I wasn’t able to see it since I updated it, and I had to delete and reinstall it. I immediately saw the emojis and I am now at a choice of whether to delete the app or keep it. I genuinely love this app because it allows me to process the beginning of the day and set goals for myself, but adding the emojis just cheapens the entire experience. Now with that being said, I’ve made up my mind to remove the app from my phone and will not reinstall it until the emojis go away. I hope you listen to your customers.

Awesome App!!!

I definitely agree with the person who said that even with the basic plan you can still get a lot of about this app I love how in the daily journaling section when you pick how are you feel it gives you different prompts depending on how you feel for example if you say that I’m feeling angry then tI will give you prompts about like what made you mad and that kind of stuff or if you feel anxious it would make you think about what kind of things you can do to make you relax and it’s not just like any old mindfulness have to ask the same questions every time I also have like how they have like different journals for different things so for example they have a dream journal where they talk about what you think your dreams could be telling you or a letter that you write to yourself for when you’re feeling angry and they have all sorts of things so yeah so I think that’s pretty amazing even though I don’t have the premium version which definitely unlocks a lot more features so if you want to get it then you should but for me I’m fine with a basic version it’s still pretty awesome and I’m pretty happy with it and I would totally recommend downloading it if you’re interested in journaling for the first time or if you’re just interested in journaling about your mental health in general so yeah I really enjoy this app and there wasn’t there would be nothing that I would change about it

A Fantastic Mindful Approach to Journaling

What a fantastic app! I have tried many journaling apps in the past, and have found none of them to be particularly motivating. Most are just a blank slate, and as journaling is not really my thing, I find it hard to get going in those. Some provide you with prompts, but I’ve never felt like the prompts got me anywhere. Jour is different. I’ve been struggling with serious depression, and the current pandemic and the California wildfires have made it increasingly difficult to handle my emotions in a healthy way. I’ve been clinging on for dear life. Just a single session with Jour and I found myself smiling, sitting here at my desk and thinking about how great it is to have a place to sit and write.I haven’t tried the paid features, and probably won’t be able to for budgeting reasons, but I’ve looked through the paid guided journals, and I must say for those who can fit it in, it looks spectacular. But even without the paid features, the app feels like a full-functioning CBT approach to journaling, and I love this first experience!

Love the app, wish there were more customization options

I have used this app for quite a while and genuinely love it! I have found the discussion questions to be creative and leading in my reflections, and I recommend this app for anyone looking for a good journal, even with just the unpaid version.However, sometimes on the daily reflection, the categories I am offered don’t reflect how my day went. I wish that there were options for custom emotions or categories, or some way to add tags to our journals to make them more personal and accurate. Sometimes the adjectives provided in the daily reflection don’t have options that relate to my day, which feels limiting and I just close the app and think “nevermind” because I don’t resonate with the options provided.Other than that one gripe, I do truly love this app. I am a premium user of over a year, and I have definitely discovered myself more and have found that you get back what you’re willing to put into your reflection sessions. Sometimes the questions seem juvenile at first tbh, but when I play along I often find some depth that I didn’t expect.

Motivated

I don’t ever and I mean ever write reviews, but I felt I had to let you know what a wonderful job you did at creating this app. I’ve only been using it for a month and I’ve looked high and low for guided journals. I love journals but I don’t like using a physicalJournal anymore so having it at my finger tips are amazing. I love the different journals entries you can do with the what’s going on in your life because it asks questions that you normally wouldn’t think about which has prompted me into thinking about my own business and goals more!! I love the guided breathing, I do wish there was a way I can do it with my eyes clothes with some sort of vibration or sounds (not voices) to prompt your inhale and exhales but other than that the focus on the circles do help me to zone so that’s not a big deal!! So with all my rambling I just want to say, kudos, job well done!! Keep up the amazing work and I’ve shared this app with all my family and friends!!! See about putting some more entrepreneur types journals or creative mind type journals in the catalog. Just a suggestion. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK ON THIS APP!!

BEST APP EVER!!!!😃😁👍

This is a awesome game it’s calming and nice and good and I recommend this game for you if you are in a ruff patch or you just want to write down your feelings I figured out something crazy and I felt bad and weird in so many ways and I thought to get a journal game and this is what i thought when I saw this oh this might be good then I downloaded this and I had to pick what made me mad or if i was sad or happy or annoyed and then i had to do a few more things and after it made a personalized journal! And even the journal was great! It was based on what I put in I honestly LOVED it SO MUCH here is a example of how great it is ,think of the greatest thing you know but imagine it 1 MILLION times better and that is how good this game is. Edit; one more thing I love how in reviews the developer response they are all different and true because some apps robots response the same and its like they put in real stuff and thoughts one last thing if the person who made this game read this. 👉 YOU ARE A PURE GENIUS AND PLEASE MAKE MORE GAME LIKE THIS ONE AND YOU ARE SOOOOOOOOOO AWESOME!!!!!!!🤞🥺☺️😁😇🙂🙄

Wishing I didn’t purchase the premium plan

I love the UI and the intentions of this app. I’ve been using it for about 2 months, and shortly after I started, I doubled down and purchased the upgrade. At first, I was impressed... but after two weeks, I started to realize all of the prompts were repetitive, such as “who is a person that inspires you?” The Insights are really basic analytics that don’t allow you to dig deeper into the data, but you do see (basically) a word cloud of all your emotions over the week/month, etc. I think I just had higher expectations for functionality. I’ve still found some value from the app, but paying for a yearly subscription is a mistake that I will eventually have to forgive myself for purchasing. Meanwhile, I’ve found a more robust and (seemingly) more data driven journaling and CBT app that offers deeper insights, patterns and analytics that are based on entries, moods, thoughts, behaviors. So, if you’re looking for something a little lighter and fluffier (nothing wrong with that!), check out Jour for a couple months before paying. If you’re looking for something to provide data, actions, insights, exercises, fresh journaling prompts, etc. I recommend taking the app CBT Companion for a test drive, too. Either way, lesson learned. I don’t need to pay money for something that is shiny, beautiful and new, until I kick the tires a bit and taken it for a test drive. Just food for thought.

I love this app!

This app is great. Very user friendly and nice design. I was never one to journal. I tried the old pen and notebook thing but I’d end up just staring at the page not knowing what to write. Guide journaling is more up my alley. There is a good selection of guided journals. You can also write your own entires too. As another reviewer mentioned, the prompts do get repetitive but I don’t mind it too much. Some questions do have more than one answer and depending on your mood the answer could be different. 2020 has brought on so much, and I was feeling very stressed and disconnected. I must say that journaling in general has helped but it’s having this guided journal that has helped me to start journaling in the first place. As for the cost, I tried the free version and really liked it so I ended up subscribing. But it was because I came across a 50% off sale. I figured I’d see how the year goes and at the end decide of I want to renew for $60. They do update often so we’ll see how this app progresses. So far I’m loving it!

Absolutely Amazing!

This app is amazing, it has insights, tons of questions to prompt about your day, different plans to start, and specific topics to help you overcome the feels of any sort! If you’ve not journaled before (I hadn’t until I downloaded this app), then this is the absolute perfect app for you!! There’s even an introduction to journaling plan to help you along your way. There’s two different membership options, you can either stick with the basic, free version (which is what I have now), or you can upgrade to pay either monthly or yearly to unlock all of the plans and such. I’m seriously considering upgrading because this app is so amazing even just with the basics! I don’t feel as though I need to upgrade, I’d just like to support these developers and I’d love to take a look at more of the plans. I’ve been having trouble sleeping, but journaling on Jour has really helped me, and I wasn’t sure that it would make much of a difference. If you’re even considering buying this app I’d encourage you to do so! The art is beautifully soothing, and the moods to choose from are plentiful, I never feel as though I’ll have to settle for something close enough to what I’m feeling. If the developers read this review, thank you SO much for all the time you’ve invested into this app, it’s so helpful and amazing!

Lost 2+ Years of Data

I thought I wrote a review already, but apparently I haven’t. I went back to the Jour app after not opening it for awhile only to find it rebranded as Alan Mind. The rebrand didn’t entirely bother me that much. I enjoyed the look and name of Jour, but whatever. What bothered me was the fact that after I was forced to create an account for Alan Mind and go through their long survey process, I lost 2+ years of journals that I was told would still be there after I created my account. Interestingly enough, the exact dates and times I wrote journals were kept, but not the actual text itself. Which I see has been a problem for multiple people now.I am devastated. Thankfully, I randomly decided to move all my journal entries elsewhere sometime last year. (Perhaps I saw this coming…) However, Jour/Alan Mind still had all my dream journals that I was keeping over the years. I am super into recording the dreams that I remember when I wake up, and I love (loved) going back to read them. I have now lost years of what were essentially memories to me. I cried for over an hour and immediately deleted the app. I will not be returning to use it, and I don’t recommend it as a long-term option for anyone else.
