WHY PENZU?
Penzu is a diary and personal journal that is focused on privacy. With a unique and compelling user experience, it makes writing online as easy and intuitive as writing on a pad of paper.
PRIVACY
Your journal and your thoughts aren’t always meant to be shared — some things are supposed to be private! Use Penzu to jot down whatever you want. Then lock your journal with a password (or even encryption) so no one can read it but you! Furthermore, you can lock the entire app with a PIN in the event that someone gets access to your mobile device.
PENZU
Unlike other journal apps, Penzu has a web-based counterpart. So you can access your journals and diary from any web browser and other devices. Penzu is constantly being updated and improved so that the writing experience is effortless and reliable.
SUBSCRIPTION INFO
This app is free to download but requires a free Penzu account in order to start writing.
Upgrading to Penzu Pro is available for a small monthly or yearly subscription. Your subscription will auto-renew unless you cancel manually. Monthly subscriptions are $4.99 USD and renew every month. Yearly subscriptions are $19.99 USD and renew every year.

Penzu Reviews
Journalling on the Go
So far, I am loving this app. I don’t carry my journal book with me and this makes it easy to journal anywhere and at anytime. I bought the Pro version. I am disappointed that I can’t increase the font size but I love that I can add photos.
Love Penzu
It has been now few years since I used Penzu the first time. Love having my writings and memos and thoughts in one place
Friendly note
i love penzu so so much, there’s just two important issues that i’m worried about. One, dictation doesn’t work (the app keeps crashing) (would save me valuable time if i don’t have to type in my entries). Second, It says my changes are not syncing, i don’t want to lose my entries so hope you manage to fix this issue soon!
No support team
If you’ve got a problem with your entries and need support, they are not there anymore. The developer uploaded this App as a cashflow cow and left it there to generate revenue without spending a cent on maintenance and etc. You can use it but be careful if you ever need help. Because they don’t have it
Crashes when using apple dictation.
Should be simple and would make the app incredibly useful for me but the fact that dictation / voice crashes the app makes it neat useless to me. Don’t have time for typing this stuff! If I’m going to write out each word, would rather do it by hand.
This was my favourite app. Now I cant log in without it crashing
I used to write often. Now to log in it wants to delete all my storage. I dont want to delete everything ive written. I cant recover it or see it either. So frustrating.
Keyboard missing
Love Penzu but the app is frustrating - every time I try to open an existing entry and add to it, the keyboard won’t pop up no matter where I tap in the entry. Sometimes if I exit and renter the entry it the keyboard will come back but not lately. Frustrating!
Pro features don’t work
Feeling ripped off that the pro features don’t work on the mobile app, and that the web browser doesn’t let phone users use it. Also the keyboard always disappears!
Not Impressed
It’s 2022, why is the app not working properly in mobile. If you change the default style of the font, [Font] shows up instead of copy. Plus background designs are cheesy and limited.
