Minimalist Journal

Hi, this app is correctly named and I love its simplicity. But I hate to not be able to write on landscape mode

This is the only App I can find that is a really basic calendar, easy to figure out and intuitive to write in with the Pencil or your finger. I appreciate not having to chose a smiley and rate today‘s diet and workout before starting to write my thoughts out! There are three pencils to chose from, plus a yellow marker that changes thickness depending on the angle you hold your Pencil. Two different erasers, a „back“ / „forward“ button and the option to cut something out and paste it somewhere else on the paper. That‘s it. If I could add a little something, it would be an option to draw straight lines or insert simple shapes like a circle or a rectangle. And maybe some colour pencils to write with. Other than that, I‘m very happy with my purchase and hope it will keep working as instantly as it does.

I have looked at many notetaking applications over the years - journals, diaries, and what not - and have been most often overwhelmed by options. I just wanted a simple journal like I might take off of my bookshelf, open up, and begin writing in with a pen. I have been writing in this journal every day for the past week and I highly recommend it if you’re looking for a simple journal to keep your thoughts in every day. I like its editing tools as well. If there is one feature, I would add, it would be a preference setting allowing me to choose a tool that would toggle with the Apple Pencil when I double tapped.

I’m using my iPad and can’t find a way to erase my entries nor mistakes.

I love this app, even paid the $9 for it. Love the fact that when you write, there’s endless of "paper". Easy to navigate and access notes. It is, what it says it is, a minimalist journal. I just wished there was a color wheel other than just, black or gray and a yellow highlighter.

I like this app that I use since I purchased it. I would just prefer if I could sync it with iCloud to be able to recover my journal in case I change ( or lose) my iPad. I don’t know if this would go against the minimalist concept of the app. But having the option to zoom in/out and choosing a different type of pen ( pencil, pen, fountain pen) will be so appreciated. Double tapping by finger to undo would be awesome as well. But still. Great app :)

I love, love, love this app. I have been searching for a journaling app that would allow me to write my thoughts and feelings in my own handwriting. I feel like being able to journal in your handwriting makes the journaling experience a whole lot personable as opposed to other journaling apps that only give the option to type. The minimalist style of the app also makes the app awesome! Thank you developer, for thinking of people like me when making the app.

I have started to use it as my main journal.

If you’re trying to emulate the feeling of writing in a normal journal, no bells or whistles, this is the app! I always felt that some of the other journaling apps were too over the top. I just need a place to jot my thoughts down and this app does exactly that and adds a sleek look to it too. It also allows for extra security with a Face ID lock feature! Only down side it that the double tap on the Apple Pencil isn’t supported to toggle between different tools but I’m sure it will eventually get there.

This is all I needed to start journal again. Minimal convoluted features. Just WRITE! A search feature cool be a useful tool to find specific details in entries as well. Great, thoughtful design and great work!
