Wonderful Life Logging

By JupiterFlux (Pcmac user)

I love the app One, I don’t do a whole lot of writing myself, or even audio recording, I have “photojournalistic tendencies”, that is I tend to just take pictures of everything. Or short videos. I used to do short text notes in iOS’ Notes App to complement my pictures, and I’ll admit, I still do on occasion, but I’m doing more and more in the app One, mostly because it’s easier to associate with a picture. I also love the location recording for notes, used to be I’d take pictures of just whatever wall or floor my phone was facing simply to record a location to accompany a text note in Notes, now, don’t have to. I still don’t write a whole lot, but the convenience of logging things, like weather and location has encouraged me to use the app One more. I highly recommend trying it for anyone who’s meticulous like I am about recording all the little details. Only thing I would improve is having the ability to save location data forever, currently location data is only saved for six weeks unless you manually save an entry for a place. I’d love to see that location history saved for forever.
Must have for those who want a convenient, beautiful journaling experience!!

By Ccccgyu (Pcmac user)

I never write reviews but I am for this one because I just want to say that I LOVE THIS APP!! Particularly the ability to print the books. Just got my first one in the mail and it is BEAUTIFUL (and it was effortless to make!) I loved all the details like the location and weather. I love the ability to have multiple journals! (Easily worth the $30 subscription I paid back in January) This has made journaling so much easier (a huge New Years resolution for me that has been easy to keep because I always have my phone with me) and then I can easily get a beautiful hard copy to share with friends and family. I used to do a blog to book program, but I would spend hours rearranging everything and not to mention the inconvenience that came with only journaling when logged into the blogging platform. Get the subscription, it is so worth it if you are serious about journaling properly!!
My entire entry was deleted

By bridgetbates17 (Pcmac user)

I like the app One and have used it off and in for a few years now. I just redownloaded it a few days ago and wrote my first new entry this morning. It took me about 30 minutes and after I was done I was searching for a way to indent the paragraphs, so I selected the entire entry and was surveying the options when I accidentally pasted a link I had copied. Everything was deleted because I pasted the link when the entire entry was selected. Here is why I’m giving two stars: there is not an undo button or back button. I feel as though it is imperative and, quite frankly, obvious that a journaling app, centered around writing and composition would have a feature that allows you to undo the most recent change to an entry. I haven’t journaled in months and this easily avoidable accident does not make me very optimistic about trying it again any time soon, especially with the app One if there is a chance this could happen again. I would happily continue using the app if an undo feature was added, but for now I am too shaken up from those memories being deleted and having no way of getting them back to use the app One again without doubting that this will happen to any of my future entries.
Upload issues with multiple devices

By Chip2.0 (Pcmac user)

I think the layout and the format is fine but the device needs to work on how it handles uploads. I’ll use an example of an issue: I begin an entry on my iPhone but then I go to finish it on my Mac. Should be no problem with cloud storage. What’s happening is the app will often re-recognize uploads from other devices as your working on editing an entry and will completely overwrite your work with the previous upload. So in my example, if I’m picking it back up on my Mac. After 10 mins of typing my uploads will resync and it wipe all my work I was doing. And this is a very frustrating issue. The only way I’ve prevented this is by closing all other instances of the app One when working on another device. But this could be fixed by having user prompts for conflicting iCloud uploads for similar entries. I have seen other apps simply have a message pop up saying they detected multiple instances of the same thing and asking for me to choose which one to continue working on or delete. Why is it so hard to utilize that kind of feature? Anyways that’s a big issue for me. Especially when your typing something that’s a journal replacing pen and paper thats subscription based.
