HighNotes

No way to navigate to a specific date, the entire UI is scrolling. No way to back up data, not even a “email yourself the plain text” last resort that I’ve seen in a lot of other apps that are missing icloud sync. No way to open images to view them after you’ve added them. No way to delete an image; if you’ve added one by accident you have to delete the entire entry and start over. Overall, the biggest draw I have to this app over the stock ios notes app is that it has a slightly cooler font, but it’s worse in every other way. Journaling with .txt files in a folder on your phone has more functionality

I was immediately disappointed. There’s no logic to the design. I started microjournalling a couple weeks ago on a different app and wanted to copy those notes to this one, but there’s no date navigation. Everything goes on an endless scroll, and the dates are inexplicably buried so that you can only peek at them, which means all your entries run together and good luck finding one for specific date. Bafflingly choices. Awful app.

This app is very helpful & easy to use, Thank you!

This app is so awesome. It’s so simple and doesn’t require you to sign up or become a member or anything like that. Truly the best journaling app out there.

Such a great and minimal design. Easy to just get writing and look at past entries. Just writing down little thoughts throughout the day really helps. I always have my phone on me so I write more than pen and paper.

Is five stars except... This is exactly what I was looking for in a minimalistic design, but it needs an update for iOS 14, REALLY needs iCloud sync, some way to export our data, and when swiping right to see the dates needs to be some kind of a clickable index where if you have hundreds of entries you can quickly move from one date to another. With even just a few of those features it’s a 5 star app.

I love this app a lot! It really does encourage me to write and it allows me to get my thoughts out as soon as I’m thinking them. The simplicity makes that very easy for me. I think one thing I would suggest if it isn’t too much of a hassle. I would love to have time stamps for the time that I’ve started writing. I tend to write on several occasions throughout the day. This is easily worked through by putting my own time stamps but I think it would be cool and convenient if it was able to be put there automatically ya know Anyways I love this app a lot it really helps me a lot especially through the small tough moments in a day.

I recently decided to take back my life and live a active healthy lifestyle. This app came recommended in YouTube video by Matt D’Avella and I’ve been using it ever since to chronicle my journey to health and a more minimalistic / essentialist way of life. The simplicity of the app allow it to not get in the way and I write daily at 9pm to recap the peaks and valleys of my day. It’s so easy to glance back at previous entries to show me how far I have come and why I should keep going. My only recommendation is to allow video attachments to the entries as well. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for creating something so clean but useful. Great job to all involved.

No icloud support?

i absolutely love the interface, it's extremely simple and easy to use which i prefer over other more flashy journal apps. the problem is i'm worried if something happens i'll lose all my entries, so i'd like a feature where you could creat accounts to keep your entered safe and not lose them. i'd also like a better options to look through past journal entries instead of scrolling. so while i may love it i will probably use another app because these 2 things are kind of big for me.
