They made the updates and so far it is loading again and saving journal entries. Thank you!! I have used this app for over 2 years and have loved it until recently. I spend a lot of time entering my reflections only to find them to disappear. Super frustrating since the last update. I do hope it gets fixed soon. I hate to have to cancel my subscription and move on.

No reasonable assurance that our entries are actually private and secure. Privacy policy allows pretty much anything. I don't want to use a journal that isn't private. Please add an option for zero knowledge encryption aka password set in the app - sync only encrypted data, there's no reason for you to be able to read all our entries.

Dmitry, I can assure you that your person data is kept safe, secure and private. The password is hashed, which is a one way process and there is no way to get the plain text back. Server communication is encrypted and the keys are managed by the operating systems. Please feel free to email us at [email protected] for any other questions.

Really great app. But all nice apps are robbing me eventually and that's a real shame. I've paid for it already and I don't want to pay again. The free year is nice but I'm fiercely against raising fees and changing to to subscription plans. Some nice things in the upgrade but also gimmicky with the preset grateful options you can click.
