I like the idea of the app. However, there are some bugs and limited capabilities. I can't save my journal entry (the button doesn't work) which is frustrating. I'd prefer to write it down on my laptop but there is no Windows application. There is a web-based application but I can only log in with Apple ID. Why only an Apple account? Could you please add the option to sign in with Google? I signed up for the free trial but I'm having second thoughts on the yearly subscription.

The app has great potential and I know the devs are working on it but one bug I keep experiencing is with "quotes". They are often 1) repeated or 2) from the same person all the time (there should be some randomness to it) and 3)at times from things I don't want to read quotes from. Like I would deselect it in the preferences but I still quotes from "them"

It's ok. It's pretty repetitive and there's quite a few grammar mistakes and random questions that make no sense, which actually get me more irritated rather than calm, so it's a little counter productive. I don't see a reason to pay for any premium features when they don't even bother to make sure they use complete sentences. The questions don't line up for day and night either. But it's good for asking the basic questions to make sure I'm staying sane and thankful.
