Card Diary - Journal, Diary

Just wow. I don't usually write app reviews but Card Diary has left me speechless. The free version does everything you'd want including full iCloud sync and certain customizations all with a clean, beautiful, and minimal interface. I did, however, pay full price to support the developers and get a little more customization in my entries. I'm very excited to see the potential of what this app with become, and for other functionality in the works such as Location tagging and font style! I do wish there were some additional functionality that I hope is in progress! I'd love to see: 1. Web app so I can write longer texts. 2. Swipe on entry to edit text and pics. 3. Tags to organize posts. 4. Dropbox/Google Drive sync. 5. Better search bar. I searched "Tes", but my entry was "Test" and it didn't show up. 6. Different text size in the same entry. Right now, everything is the same size. Please keep developing this app! I'd love to support in other ways if possible :)

I think this app may be one of the most underrated diary apps out there. - It’s very simple and easy to use. - Has quality features with out being chunky or over packed. - Tags - Locations - Good UI - Decently Good organization. - Local storage using your iCloud - It’s not trying to get me to use it in a certain way. It’s a fairly open platform which makes it useful in a lot of different contexts. It can be what you want it to be. - It also seems as though the developer really cares about this product. A note to the developer- Stay true to the vision of what you are creating and don’t get too overwhelmed with feature chasing. If you become like everyone else then you might get lost in the shuffle of everyone else. You have a really great product. Focus on refining the elements you already have such as pictures (resizing, reloading, options for display of pics...etc...). Give yourself a pat on the back. Really enjoying your product.

So like many people, I’ve tried a lot of journaling apps. There is the one really big name one with tons of reviews, and for some people who are veterans to journaling, I guess it probably works but it’s too cluttered and messy for me. This app though? It’s super clean and easy to use. I LOVE the idea that each day gets a “card” and that is what you are writing on! It’s not limited to like a post it size or anything, it’s just the way the app displays it. It’s very nice and easy to use. I might actually be able to make my journaling habit stick this time, and I’m excited and thankful for that!

This app makes me feel happy to journal. I’ve tried many journaling apps and none of them seemed to work for me and I ended up deleting them right away. This is the first journal app that has me journaling multiple days in a row. It’s just so visually pleasing to look at and easy to use. I even bought the lifetime premium because it’s more than worth it. My only suggestion would be to let premium users change the colors of the UI. I like the calming blue but I’d love to have the option to change it to other colors like pink or purple.

The interface is simple and beautiful. It’s a low commitment way to keep memories that you will cherish later on. They give many ways to backup your entries so they don’t get lost. The lifetime membership price is affordable and reasonable. It just good all around. My one suggestion would be to add a feature where two people on separate devices can add to the same diary. I would love to be able to record my days with my partner so we can record memories for our daughter. Otherwise, it’s just a well made app.
