This is a great app because you can submit journal reflections using voice-to-text, scan a journal entry that's handwritten, or use a tablet to write in it. Also their customer service is amazing. Every time I have suggested new functionality or highlighted an issue, they have come back to me quickly and resolved it.

Through this app, I was able reflect and journal to my hearts content as well as be able to look within myself to keep on growing. I have been looking for years to find journaling softwares, websites, and even different apps to fit my needs and I'm glad to say this one was able to do what I needed to aid my growth! I love the features that it comes with like AI to prompt for deeper reflection to other aspects like adding photos, voice, and it can be shared to therapists through private links too

Learned something about mindfulness in school, so I had to apply the skill with something that I use everyday i.e. my phone. It helps to have the premium scholarship as I'm a broke student, and because I feel that being resilient about our mental health through expression is important to cope through multiple commitments in life. The UI can be quite clunky and cluttered for me as an Android user, but I think I can get used to it as I use more of it.

I absolutely love the AI although I'm having trouble navigating how to change the go deeper so that it's more on what focus on the journal entry and not something random in the journal entry.. I love it, and yes you can get a scholarship for the yearly fee I received one. love this app.

I like this app alot but there are 2 things i wish they would do is make the voice coach only have a maximum of 15-20 minutes. I love the voice of the voice coach too. Brilliant app. The second thing i wish is that the guides were audio guides or that the experts had a 2 minute meditation practice to reflect abit like insight timer. Other than those two points reflection is a brilliant app. I have heard Rosebud also has a voice coach but I prefer yours just make it longer in its time frame pls

I've been using the app for a few months now and have been absolutely loving it. At first, I didn't fully utilize the app's full capabilities as I do my journaling with fountain pens and the AI prompt had been useful for a bit before they started getting repetitive. course that caused me to finally start typing a few of my journal entries and now really do love it. I'm glad there's a pay what you can option as I got into this due to filing for divorce and bankruptcy at the same time.

can't report bugs in program. insights only occur after it done journaling.So if you want to do an insight, you have to cut and paste it, which makes no sense.And you can't add your own tags, even though it suggests that you should add new tags. buy real bs really? switch to and bait-and-switch? not everybody can afford your prices. Not everybody has a paycheck weekly. Okay, some people are disabled and was told to do your app. deleted lack of help without buying. 😔 Greed is like karma

Reflection has strong potential and is becoming my main journaling app. I like the calendar for adding older entries and building a long-term timeline.

I have been enjoying the layout of this journal app, as well as the tools it has available. I find the coaching AI tool as a good way to dive deeper into your thoughts and often feels like a combination of a friend and a therapist asking questions to get you to go into further detail, or think about a different aspect of the entry you're making. I haven't tried all of the tools yet, but I do plan on using some of the guides to help with some self reflection.

Capturing my reflections and seeing the AI patterns and themes is a huge upgrade from just journaling. What could be better? It has huge potential in the corporate sphere where a World Economic Forum survey sees self-awareness as one of the Top 5 skills needed but with only 1 in 10 possessing it. How to get it? A reflection practice of course. That is the best springboard for the experimentation companies need. This app is missing the corporate angle. I have ideas if anyone wants to talk 🤘

An incredible tool if you want to build a real, consistent journaling habit.

It's a good journal app that you can access on your phone and computer. You have limited access to Ai in the free version to help go deeper into issues, see patterns from entries, summarize or be coached to write more. It's a creative and good way to use AI. The Ai helps me to write more and to get more from Journaling. If you don't mind paying there are also guides that you can complete on various topics.

This app is really well-thought! I would love to suggest it to my people. The AI integration was good as well, it's nice that it has summary, a coach, and you can trace patterns, etc. The prompts are helpful as well! I would like to sugges that maybe have an option of an auto-correct, and the app itself can be rotated horizontally. And if possible--only if possible (hehe), the grammarly can be integrated in the app. Overall, this is a really good app.

I started using this app back in 2024 when I tried to get into journaling. I'm not consistent, and I just write when I need to get my thoughts down. The features in this app are great. The AI coach helped me a lot in processing my thoughts and feelings, all with context from my previous entries (that I myself forgot). I love the past pattern and summarising feature. I love how personalised the advice is. The app has helped me a lot navigating through difficult times of my life. Thanks, team

The reflection app is a Godsend! Five stars, and two thumbs up! My social circle is very small, close to non existent, so I use it in moments when I need to vent or spit thoughts out, and need a little feedback or a "shoulder to cry on", so to speak. There are no intrusive ads, and you only get the notifications you ask for. I've yet to sign up for the premier subscription, but judging by its content, I may be doing so very soon.

I just love this app! It has the guided prompts to get you started, as well as the ability to start from a blank screen and just let it flow. All the features you could want are here, including a scholarship to give a discount to those who can't afford the cost! On top of that, the customer service is honest, helpful, and friendly, too. All put together, the Reflection App is a breath of fresh air! I highly recommend this way of journaling to anyone!

it's honestly my very first time and just made my first entry tonight but I have very high hopes for this app since it's been recommended to me by quite a few. also so far it's been very straight forward and easy to start. just login to your Google or Apple and then it pops up with your first entry and then you go from there but it's very easy instructions and the prompts are amazing it's like it knows the words I want to put but can't find the right word but it has it right there for me.

As a psychotherapist in private practice, I was delighted to run across this app to assist my clients in journaling in a deeper and more reflective manner. I used it myself first and fell in love with the format. Cannot imagine a day without a few minutes of self-reflection now, made easier and more relevant through the use of these prompts.

I'm thoroughly enjoying the app, so much so that I signed up for premium after the trial. Its nice to pause and reflect and this app makes that easy with ideas and reminders. I just finished one multi-day journey and I'm looking forward to another (would be great if you had more of these - I really appreciated the daily quotes and examples from the prompts).

This app has been amazing at asking the questions nobody will in my life right now. To finish up the leftover bit of trauma and fix them up. Thank you! Edit: I definitely didn't explain well enough the countless ways this has been helpful to me! The updated AI is really cool. I have a great idea ahead now what I can do with all the "loose change" kind of thoughts rolling around in my brain, pestering me to remember them!

I so far like the app. It's simple and easy to use. I'm using this to replace journaling on paper. I know there is a thing called "Notes" on iPhone and Samsung devices, but when you add your Google account on this app, you'll have these notes forever anywhere you want to go. I like using a keyboard with a tablet for this. Or for even using the online website on a laptop for this. It lets you know what date you made the notes. It has features I will buy in the future, but it's a pretty good app

Somehow I was upgraded to a premium plan and only found out when I was charged $48 for it. Now I can't even cancel the subscription I never signed up for. Have been unable to get a response despite reaching out to customer service multiple times. Had actually really liked the app up until this, but the lack of customer support is very disappointing.

I love it! Really simple journaling app that I can use on my phone or desktop. I love the prompts it has since it really helps me male an entry. The only thing I wish it would have that would make it perfect for me is the ability to customize my journal. Other than that, it works really really well!

Simple and pretty journaling app! Not bogged down with millions of things or ads, pop ups, whatever. Non-distracting and not straining on the eyes. I've used it since last December (a year now) for nightly reflections and its been wonderful! Very reliable and comfortable. Also their customer service is very good and they helped to resolve a bug I had been having that made the app a pain to use sometimes and it has since been fixed! Would *definitely* recommend this app. :]

after the update, I tried opening the app several times but I kept closing and didn't even proceed further. It kept closing overtime I pressed. Because of this reason, I uninstalled the app. but it was okay before all of this happened. It was a great journal. But I hope they fix this issue. I did email your team as well.

I originally gave a 3-star review due to the app not working properly. Since then, Kim from customer service has been emailing me to fix the issue. Even if the update today or in the future doesn't fix the problem, I'd still give a 5-star review. This is the best journal app available. I absolutely love it. It's easy to use, has writing prompts, and saves each journal entry separately. I have tried other journal apps, and they're terrible. This is the only journal app I'll ever use or recommend.

Seems great so far, I'm always wearing of apps that demand this review early on, but I understand the incentive. It has an attractive layout, engaging prompts (my main attraction to its marketing) and the free version is fulfilling by itself. The premium additions are tempting, I might splurge for it one of these days, but by itself, it's a great daily journalling app.

I tried a few journaling apps before settling on this one. This app ticks all the boxes. I can share entries, tag them, sync across devices, and the minimalist style makes it easy to journal. I absolutely love the end of month review. It really helped me assess where I'm at and also see how I overcame obstacles earlier in the month, things I'd already forgotten about. Completely satisfied.

Two months in, and I'm genuinely glad I downloaded and took a chance paying for the subscription. Fabulous app for note taking on the go for anything - contemplative thoughts you want to expound upon later, quotes you want to remember, journal entries however lengthy with pictures from your own gallery(great feature although wish you could size and shuffle after adding - very limited on editing features overall). Developers,add more editing options to fonts, pics, etc. & I'll add that last star.

This app is exactly the caliper I was searching for as I intentionally chase and cultivate my inner garden, printed journals are harder for me to pick up with kids around but this app has already helped spark some incredible insight and I look forward to seeing the progress and entries after a year! I also love the categories you have access to choose from for different areas of life to improve in!

I thoroughly love this app! I love how you can choose your own quote, question, & guides for whatever you need. I find these prompts so helpful, especially since thinking of topics are a little hard for me--these help me get in the mindset of reflecting and being present. It's also very easy to keep track of what you're doing & I love the monthly reviews. The only thing that bugs me is that the checklist doesn't disappear if you don't complete each box & that the date isn't on the main page

Great, simple journaling app. ✨️ It's exactly what I was looking for, and has a very calming vibe. I also like the reflection prompts you can choose to use to fuel your entry. You can't do much formatting in the free version, but I don't really need it. I really like using the web app because I can type quickly and keep up with my thoughts. 😊

Great journaling app. I've been using it for years, and it really helps me track my mood and recall how I think and feel in different situations. I often read important entries to my psychiatrist that I wouldn't have otherwise remembered. The guided courses are cool too, and I love that there's a different thought-provoking quote every day. Really just a great tool.

I have only recently started using Reflection for my morning journal but so far I think it is a really terrific app and I would highly recommend it. The journal prompts are great and you can choose between journaling the reply to a question or to a quote (or both if you want). My favourite feature so far though has to be the monthly review which is really well thought out and considered as far as it's structure goes so enables me to thoroughly analyse my personal development and other goals.

I've used a number of leading note-taking apps before: in fact, there are a few I still use for professional purposes. However, Reflection App is the complete winner for my personal note-taking. The security and simplicity of the app are TOP notch! I won't use another. Their support and team are also really great: easy to talk to and real humans. Love it!

Of the many journaling apps I have used, this is the absolute best and the only one I kept (after reviewing some for personal use) and use, for over a year now. The best thing about this app is if there are issues (and here really never are), all you have to do is email and there is a quick response and resolution. With my small issue, after sending off a quick email, it was discovered all I had to do to solve it was update my version of the app...cause I'd had the one I'd been using for so long

I love this app! It's so simple and minimal, exactly how I like it. Everything one would need, effective and efficient! And I love the prompts! Making me think about things I wouldn't by myself. I really just love the simplicity of it. Tried many others, which are too focussed on design and extra bs features. This one is so straight forward! And your content is also safe and encrypted and you can choose to fully delete it from the database as well, which gives me peace of mind as well. Thanks!

A truly amazing app! I very much like the tag system that can help me find a specific entry much easily. It's really elegant, effective and user-friendly. The prompts make it easier to journal if you're not sure what to write about. The biggest selling point for me (in addition to the tag system) is the monthly reflection of the highlights and lowlights. I think this can really help with personal growth. The support team is supportive which shows that they really care. Highly recommend!

I have had to remove this app as it is not working effectively. The concept is great and I was able to add thoughts, however there are technical glitches which I cannot resolve. Editing messages is very difficult as the undo button does not work, plus it is not recognising my wifi. The keyboard keeps disappearing, this happened when I tried to send a message via the app, so I had to abandon it.

The app is well designed and easy to use. It's helped me get back into journaling. My biggest gripe is the payment model. I'll only subscribe to apps if they're giving a continuous service (NOT just customization) and I don't think that syncing across devices (in my opinion, the only continuous service in the app) is worth $5.99/mo. If I could pay once for a lifetime license I'd definitely do it to unlock all of the extra goodies. Unfortunate that more and more apps are going to subscriptions.

A great way for journaling. Given that journaling helps in our mental health, it is a great tool. Great to see that some of the entries are aggregated and presented in a graph. Entries can be entered on a prompt or as a free entry. If weekly (or even daily) entries can be supported in a convenient way, it would be of immense help.

The best tool for journaling and reflection out there! Smart, functional and a delight to use. The most valuable part is the monthly reflection framework. It's one thing to journal regularly -- but when you combine that habit with a practice of looking back on past entries to find learnings and celebrate wins, it can be a really powerful tool for personal growth and transformation. And there's no better guide for this process than Holstee, with over a decade of experience in mindful living.
