I have lowered my original review due to an ongoing issue where the app and desktop client do not refresh properly. I have lost hours of typed content that is typed in to only go back later to find that when I opened my phone to double check it had copied over it instead Refreshes and erases what I just typed. it's happened considerably enough now that I will probably be looking for a new platform.

Hello Justin! This is definitely not the intended behavior. We'd like to look further into this with you. Please reach out to us directly at dayone.me/support.

Excellent with one exception: you cannot search inside a particular note. Here's how Day One search works - it returns a list of notes that contain your search term. You cannot search INSIDE a note using the Day One app. This is a huge deficiency. To get around this, use your PC to open Day One on the web. However, this does not work from your mobile device. If you try to use a web browser to access the Day One website you are redirected to the app. Bummer.

Not ready for prime time. Used this app for about a half hour, and the incompleteness of it kept adding up. Pretty sure it's still in Beta, so I'll wait for the actual product. My first grievance was that there's no way to change the font. Followed immediately by the "dealbreaker" that there's no way to lock it. Only started exploring the Windows version at this point - it was enough to turn a "maybe" into a solid "no". Also not thrilled about the RENTAL program (can't purchase).

Hi, Dayton! The Android app is no longer in beta. That said, changing the font in the Android app is not yet possible. If you would like to lock the app on Android, you can follow our guide here: https://dayoneapp.com/guides/day-one-for-android/passcode-biometrics-in-app-options-in-day-one-for-android/

I've been using this app on my iPhone for over a year now and I love it. I recently switched over to the S25 Ultra and noticed a slight difference between how the font appears on iOS &, how it appears on Android. The default font appears smoothly throughout the ios version, but on android it's not the same. Please fix! The premium cost is still a bit too high in my opinion.

Super helpful journaling app. I love the template and tag features. It's also really cute how the calendar has a thumbnail of your photo of the day if you took one. It would be really amazing if the app generated a slideshow of all the pictures over a set period of time.
