Day One Journal Customer Insights

1. The other annoyance is when I change the size of text that is supposed to be part of the entry, not the title, the text editor will often automatically revert the text back to H1The developers have promised updates for three years but at present the paid Android version is pretty weak compared to the MacOS version.

2. But it's seriously ridiculous how often it just freezes and shuts down.I get so frustrated with the bugs! If you use a contraction or pause too long while typing a word, it doubles some letters.

3. The font changes when I'm typing (and when I change the font back, it ignores me) and now my autocorrect isn't working properly and words are stacking on top of each other.

4. It doesn't have autocorrect and then when you try to go backspace to fix the error in your word, it will automatically repeat the first part of the word.

5. And when I do backspace to change one letter, it adds the correctly spelled word AFTER the misspelled word, so I have to delete everything.

6. Sometimes randomly it will put a complete word in what seems like an attempt at auto-complete when I hit a letter essentially forcing a typo which slows down my writing.

7. I love having multiple journals, some photo-based, and tags as well to keep things organized across time and topics.

8. Background is white or black, can't adjust or drag photos, color font, etcI have used this app since 2014 and have always loved it's easy platform.

9. I document everything & now I can use voice clips, videos, photos, tags, map locations even, all in one spot throughout my day, organized, easy to get to via a calendar view.

10. HA!The text editor when making an entry on my phone (galaxy s21) is problematic.

11. For example I could be typing the word The and I look up I see ThThe.
