Bullet Journal Companion for Negative User Reviews

Everything is Directly From WebsiteEverything on this app links back to the website except for the Guide & Reflection Menu's. Reflection is only a reminder to check your BuJo journal! So disappointing. I subscribe to the newsletter which has talked but the APP coming soon. I was hoping to enhance my BuJo with the APP but instead I feel as a newsletter subscriber I was duped..Version: 1.0

Reflection Time still broken for GMT+12If you're in New Zealand don't expect the AM reflection to register until after 12pm NZT.Version: 2.0.3

Used to do the job: now it’s glitchyBefore the latest update, I personally used the library to keep pics of indexes of all my past notebooks. The AM and PM reminders worked great and I simply used to check off « yes, I’ve done my reflection » and I could keep a close eye on my consistency. I also used the log and kept up with transferring whatever was on the phone app into the paper journal (before the 72h expiration, as suggested). I simple LOVED the previous version. The latest update added a few extra features , such as storing pics of any/all pages of a notebook. Sounded great in theory. Since that update I’ve been experiencing the following issues (none of them happened before): -App quits unexpectedly (from any screen) -Notifications cards from lock screen links to the wrong page in app when tapping. -WORST glitch: the daily AM and PM reminders do not work well. For instance, completing my PM réflection the evening of Feb 10, the app considers the AM reflection completed ... for the next day Feb 11. Also completing a morning reflection on the app sets the same day’s PM reflection as complete. Like there’s a chronological issue. I use the latest iPhone, purchased only 3 months ago and I have all the latest updates installed in the system. No funny business. All in all, I wish there was a way to go back to the previous version of this app ... before troubles started. It used to be a daily productivity app (I’m a BuJo maniac), but now it’s more a hindrance than anything..Version: 2.0.2

Jumping jacksI know the app is new but you really need to fix the jumping from one quote to the next. Often I don't even get the chance to read a quote before it disappears. Right now the log doesn't work, it just skips back to the quote page. I do like the reminders to reflect but the app as a whole needs a glitch overhaul..Version: 1.1.2

Love it butLove the ap and BUJO but it's very expensive for minimal services. Honestly I could have just kept using Evernote for free.Version: 1.2

Nice tiny app but not worth the moneyWell presented instructions on how to journal and link to online articles. Habit tracker is pointless does nothing to augment the bullet journal ideal. Save your money and put it towards a nice pen or something....Version: 1.0

Not usefulHard to navigate. Does not offer a refund..Version: 1.3

Keeps CrashingGreat concept, execution leaves a lot to be desired as the app keeps crashing..Version: 2.5.0

Not worth the money.The articles and help topics can all be found online I believe. The ‘reminders’ is just a calendar ping you could do in any of your calendar apps. And it doesn’t have a function for organising your to do list (that I can see) in order to have a tool (the app) for when you don’t have your journal on you. As a ‘companion’ it’s weak and should have been free for the money we pay for the journal anyway..Version: 1.4.1

Useful, but with nonsensical organizationInstead of using this app to actively bullet journal, I wanted to use it purely as an archive of all of my past journals, and for that this app is almost perfect. It’s very easy to photograph your pages, allocate each page a date, and it organizes them into book form to browse later. The only thing that’s really, truly bugging me is that I can’t have bullet journals with overlapped dates which is nonsensical to me. Sometimes I use more than one bullet journal at a time to compartmentalize multiple projects, sometimes my journal runs out of pages mid-month and I have to start a new one so both journals cover the same month. It’s just such an idiot restriction that makes zero sense and stops this from being a 5 star app..Version: 2.1.1

What a waste!If you’re the kind of person who, like me, wants to use bullet journaling to keep yourself focused on priorities, this app just wastes your time. The only tool it really contains is a notes-like feature that lets you record things you think of on the fly that you want to add to your analog bullet journal - but, unlike the Notes app that Apple bundles with the iPhone and iPad, the Bullet Journal Companion’s list entries disappear after 48 hours! Heaven forbid you’re away from your paper journal for more than two days. What a waste of $2.99. I’ll just use Apple’s Notes..Version: 1.4.1

Not sure it's a mustBut it's informative and getting better..Version: 1.2

Journal Library is Almost ThereThe thing the app has going for it is that you can take pictures of pages and it will automatically allow you to put them into collections and numbers them appropriately. However it doesn’t really do some major things it should; - increase contrast to make it an actual scan, their sample even has a fake scan. - tag, title, or description a page to make the content searchable, I mean why not use the advantages of an app? - The backup it makes is a .bjarchive, not very useful if this app never gets updated again, for me I’d rather have a backup system that allows me to actually keep my files. This file format locks it to this app. If the app dies, all my files do too. Interface is a bit odd and clunky with slow animations. Changed review to 2 stars because the main function of journal backup doesn’t work. Once you create a collection you can’t create more collections Function broken; Cannot add photos later to the existing single collection because plus button doesn’t work. Furthermore you cannot add a single page to more than one collection..Version: 2.0.2

Offers little more than the websiteThis app offers very little more than the bullet journal website, don’t waste your money.Version: 1.4

Bad updateI’m completely fed up with this app at the moment. Since the last update I’ve had lots of problems, it won’t back up to the same place twice, it won’t mark off the calendar when I’ve done a reflection and often goes completely bonkers and won’t stop flicking through quotes continually. All I can do is delete the app and reload. When I first had the app it was very useful, I’m very disappointed ☹️.Version: 2.0.3

Meh - Needs more for a paid appI’d prefer the option to turn off the 48 hour time limit on what I’ve logged. What would work better for me is a prompted reminder at 48 hours to log in my bullet journal. Being able to index my bullet journals is inter, but not useful enough for me. I might find it more interesting if I could take notes on that particular journal, what worked for me during that time period, and some major events or experiences. Like a summary of that time period in my life. Being able to customize the look/colors would be nice, because I’m more likely to open an app more often if it’s visually appealing to me. Even have a few skin options would be good enough. The log function should be the primary option either at the top, or in the form of a + symbol at an easy to access spot like many other apps use. I do appreciate that i can access the logging feature via a widget, but it should be easier to do when in the app. Also, the ability to add custom bullet symbols would be a great feature to add. I’d feel like i got my money’s worth even with just that. All in all I wouldn’t say I regret my purchase, but I do wish it was more personalizable if I’m going to spend money on an app. Otherwise I can just use the native Reminders app with more robust features..Version: 2.0.3

Not neededI love bullett journaling so much, its changed my life! However, im not sure what I expected with the app... i guess i way for my journal and phone to speak... but i get a reminder system... i couldve set my calendar alarm and saved $4!.Version: 1.0

Not actually a bullet journal appSo this is basically a tutorial with very little information on it. You can read blogs and watch videos on YouTube that give this info- I wouldn’t have paid for this app had I known it doesn’t actually do anything..Version: 1.3

Not the bestI thought it was going to be great . Untill I realised it was just an photo storage app. I want to be able to actually type into the pages, it would be great if you could. Otherwise I could have taken photos of my journal and stored them in any photo app 🤷🏻‍♀️.Version: 2.1.1

RigidThis app is super rigid. You can’t make spreads and then give them upcoming or future dates. It forces you to either pick today or wait to take a snap of your spread, which doesn’t work for me. I can’t even add my new bullet journal to the app yet because they overlap in August. Also, the rest of the app is basically useless. I would not have paid for this had I not worked in multiple locations during the pandemic..Version: 2.1.1

I have no idea why this existsI love the (analog) Bullet Journal process, and use it every day with a pen and paper, but this is really pointless. To be honest, I don’t really know what I expected, but a wrapper around some instructional content was not it. Save your money and spend it on buying a real life Bullet Journal..Version: 1.4

Gorgeous but basically pointless appThis app is beautiful, but it seems entirely pointless. I don't personally feel that the archiving feature is worth the money (as technically I could do this in a sidekick bujo), and while the reflection log is nice, again I don't feel it is worth the money. The ui of the app is gorgeous and slick though.Version: 1.1.2

Lost log data from new updateMay not be worth the bother to be honest.Version: 2.0.2

Should be more neutral and familiarIt’s OK in concept and features. But it is designed to a very particular taste. I feel that any app that hopes to become a regular part of my morning and evening routines (plus spontaneous idea-capturing throughout the day) should really nail the utility before trying to come up with a unique visual style. I know the bookish appearance of small serif type overlaid over a washed out photo is intended to be calming. But UI design doesn’t work like that. The most calming UI is the one I don’t even notice, one that feels native..Version: 2.0.3

Downloading the app means purchasing the appI was billed just from downloading and opening the app. I had the app on my phone for maybe 30 minutes and realized it wasn’t going to meet the needs of what I was looking for but was billed anyways for it. Unfortunately I didn’t realize it was a paid app..Version: 2.1.1

DisappointedI love Ryder Carrollton Bullet Journal - fabulous system - but this app is disappointing. The information you receive is also on his YouTube channel and blog and in more detail in his book AND the one page you get to record notes only lasts for 72 hours! So I am still looking for a system like Ryders I can use in my mobile ‘sigh’.Version: 2.1.1

Glitchy, expensive reminderQuotes in the reflection section jump from one to the next and get stuck in a glitchy loop. Look and feel are nice. Like the help section, references, blog... overall it's ok but feels like something is missing. $3.99 seems like a lot for the functionality it offers. Kind of a glorified reminder to reflect twice a day..Version: 1.1

Overall Great, a few Minor DrawbacksOverall I really like the app. It’s simple, easy to use, and works well. The new version has some clutch features like backups and a sample BuJo. I’ve had some problems with the app crashing, overheating my phone, and generally being slow or unresponsive. It seems to want an internet connection, so if I hit my data cap, and get throttled, trying to load the app off Wifi is painful. Disabling cell data for the app seems to be a workaround. Not really sure why it needs connectivity to simply open. Most recently I’ve had issues marking items as migrated or completed. It doesn’t register correctly unless I’m in the reflection screen..Version: 2.1.1

Could use more freedomSome of the structural features are frustrating. For example, some notebooks have odd numbers on the right hand side of the page, so if you are using a different notebook all of your numbers are off. One thing that I find extremely difficult is that you can not have volumes saved from the same month. I just ended one journal mid May, but in order to start using my new journal I had to change the dates so that it seemed like my old journal ended in April so that would allow me to log mg current journal in May- since it won’t allow to volumes to be in the same month and it just asks for month not date. Hopefully this app can update to allow more flexibility..Version: 2.0.3

Take getting used toI do like to use this app, if I can’t spend the to do sit down & do my Bujo however, I would find it more useful if for each item it can automatically add a date stamp as to when it was added. Just so it’s easier for me to update my Bujo when I get to it. Or items can be grouped by the date added..Version: 1.4.1

Bad updateThe original BJ companion app was great. This new version however is full of garish colours and extra features which can add to sensory overload. I’m hoping I can restore to the Legacy version. Always disappointing for neurodiverse users when an app is changed for no good reason..Version: 2.5.0

Useful though limited in applicationThis app will be useful to those who have more than one Bullet Journal as they will be able to log them and have a way to review the indices when looking for an entry. On the other hand this could easily be done in another notebook. Hardly worth the money just for the reflection reminder. That could be done with the phone's calendar app or alarm app. Stick to analogue..Version: 1.1.2

Sound FX’s unnecessary & annoyingCan’t recommend this app. For 2.99 you get an annoying sound FX with every entry unless you mute your phone as there are no settings. You also can log your journals in the library by entering the dates covered and pics of the index pgs but nothing is searchable unless you add tags. You would need to have a whole lot of journals to make this even remotely useful. The final feature is a spot to make notations in case you forget your journal but anything you enter on this page disappears after 48 hrs. So my advice is save your 2.99 and just make a note on your phone, send yourself an email or text or make an entry on your calendar. All of those apps are much more useful and bonus they are free unlike this app which is a complete and total waste of money..Version: 1.3

AverageI dislike that there are no settings for this app. I would like the option to shut off the sounds, change the log to put newer logs at the bottom instead of the top, and change the background photo. I would give this four stars if this app was free but it was not and I feel that if I am paying for an app then it should be great. This is just a quick guide to the bullet journal articles and a link to buy more bullet journals. Please make this more functional..Version: 1.4

No different from websiteOnly exception seems to be some inspirational quotes but I didn't need to pay $4 for that. Honestly, I wish I hadn't spent the money - definitely not worth it..Version: 1.0

I love the app but I wish there were more options for the logI don’t like to carry my bullet journal around with me because I don’t want to lose it and I don’t typically need it at work as I use it mostly for personal goals. I have mainly used the app to take pictures of pages such as to do lists that I might need to reference when I’m out and about. It has been great for that. I started using the log to record things I didn’t want to forget while I was out but I didn’t realize it would expire after 72 hrs. While it would be great if I always transferred my log to my physical book within 24hs there will always be times where there doesn’t actually happen so I wish there was an option for it not to expire or to change the number of hours. Otherwise the log works well to quickly record my thoughts..Version: 2.1.1

It’s okayI do find it useful for taking temporary notes when I don’t have my notebook handy, but the 48-hour limit is slightly too restrictive. It’d be nice if I could think of something after work on Friday, log it in the app, and it still be there when I return to my work BuJo Monday morning. Backing up my BuJo as photos would be useful but I don’t think this gap efficiently helps with that. Better to just do it using normal camera and throw into a note..Version: 1.4.1

ConfusedConfused by the changes that have been made recently. It doesn’t make any sense to me to take photos of my pages?.Version: 2.0.2

Needs more work but has potentialI bought this app to help me stick to my Bullet Journaling which is what the reflection aspect of the app is for but it doesn't let you reflect when you want to reflect but makes you wait for the time you put to be notified. That's silly. Ryder please fix that or make the app free. The rest is on the website and free so you don't know need to purchase this app. Wait until Ryder either fixes the current issue or adds more so you get value..Version: 1.0

Most uselessI did postpone my feedback many times, but finally do this now. As for me, this program absolutely useless, with terrible ui/ux design. And if first is my fault - I should not buy it, than second is real problem. Unfortunately, bunch of positive feedback here and few positive review in another places pushed me to buy it. Its a very hard to see the general logic of using and real profit of using as well. Do my daily routine in Microsoft onenote and scheduling in Microsoft Todo..Version: 2.1.1

Bullet Journal System Full Marks. Bullet Journal Companion App Nil PointsAt £2.99, this was a complete waste of money. Timed daily reflections are repeated over and over again. Not sure how many are in there but I keep seeing and logging the same ones over and over again. Click on other headings in the menu and it takes you to the Bullet Journal website (which can be accessed free of charge.) There is very little difference to make it worthwhile spending £2.99. A really big disappointment..Version: 1.0

DisappointedReally underwhelmed with this app. As mentioned in other reviews this app is essentially a pretty package for literally THE SAME content in the website. I could almost understand if this was a 79p app but £2.99?!!! I feel like a right mug and I am hoping for some fairly rapid, interesting and useful updates to this app including some exclusive content. Such a shame..Version: 1.0

Not worth the moneyThis is less a companion more a how to guide with the store attached. (Oh yes, and there's a diary page. Wow.)I was hoping for something innovative which leveraged BuJo use. I got a manual and a way to spend more money. Free would have been about the right price..Version: 1.0

No added valueDon't waste any money on this one. It doesn't do anything the website doesn't already show you and you're better off storing your photo backups in something like Evernote. The philosophy for Bullet Journal is analogue (ie paper) which I get, but I think that has affected their offering here. What I wanted was something to 1. Let me store notes when I don't have the journal with me (the companion does that but deletes them after 48 hours, adding to your stress in a tribute to Mission Impossible). Then, 2. I wanted a safety net in case I lost my journal (I lost my paper diary once and swore I'd go digital from then on). The app only lets you take a limited number of photos and there isn't much functionality with this. If you record them in an app like Evernote then your text becomes searchable and you can mark it up etc. Basically this isn't really a companion. It's more annoying than anything else and I regret paying for it..Version: 1.4.1

Great, but…I love the idea of saving my volumes digitally, and found that capturing the pages is quick and easy. However, I don’t see a way to rename collections or delete pages. I also had a few pages end up saved to the wrong collection. Not sure if it was my mistake or the app’s mistake. I’d like to be able to delete pages or better yet, move pages to another collection..Version: 2.1.1

Newest version is a DUDI’ve had this app for several years now and have loved the simplicity of the layout and functionality for tracking tasks. (Note: i don’t use it as a resource for anything else so i can’t rate that.) There was a recent update to the app which changed everything from the appearance (it went from black background to red/yellow/orange tiedie?!) to the functionality- the task log is no longer default screen when the app opens. Instead there are now daily journaling prompts that load first and i have to navigate toward the log. Very annoying. And the color scheme of the background makes it nearly impossible to read what you’ve written. Who approved this?! I’ll be looking for a substitute asap, or just use the notes app instead..Version: 2.5.0

Buggy UpdateThe new features have compromised the app. It’s no longer usable. - Reflections are defaulted to AM and cannot be changed. - Wording on the Reflection Calendar page is cut off and you aren’t able to scroll. - All my previous Reflection logs for January we’re erased since the update. - The swipe back option is very sensitive. I can’t use the app until these bugs are fixed which is a shame as it used to be part of my daily routine..Version: 2.0.2

FrustratedThe update has caused me so much frustration. It’s a great idea to capture your pages and back up your journal - if it worked properly! My reflections are always recorded ahead - for example, my morning reflection is recorded as the evening and the evening is recorded as the next morning. The most frustrating part is the fact that I have tried to contact the company in 3 different ways (3 emails, Facebook Messenger and a post on their Facebook page which was declined as a post) and I’ve been ignored. I am deleting this app today..Version: 2.0.2

Good to help to start bullet journalingThere are lots of good points in this app. The show and share section and all the tips fir journaling are great. Most of the reflections are also good, but that’s down to individual preference. The logging section I find annoying. I use it to capture ideas when using my journal isn’t possible, but then have to remember to transfer the ideas before they disappear. I would like the log to last for 7 days. I use weekly reflections more than daily. The 48 hour limit is irritating..Version: 1.4

Update screwed up my logThe update is awful. I can’t log reflections anymore by tapping and I hate this photo capture feature. It was reminding me of evening reflections at 9am! I deleted it and re-downloaded it hoping it will fix it. If it doesn’t I will just delete the app because it’s garbage now..Version: 2.0.2

Loved it till it updatesI loved this app and the support it provided to my BUJO until the update this week. I LOST all my reflection logs and it was all of a sudden out of sync so reminders were set for odd times of the day. Not a seamless update and I was so upset about losing my logs I haven’t been able to explore the new options! For a program that encourages you to track goals, and then to delete goal tracking... doesn’t make sense. How can I get the last 6 months back?.Version: 2.0.2

EhDespite the polish on this app, it doesn’t have any reflection prompts to help new comers to bullet journalling reflect. That and it was implied. Very disappointed with this purchase..Version: 1.3

Great app, new version got very glitchyUPDATE March 2020: Is anyone ever going to fix this app?! Flip through the comments and you can see how everyone is complaining about the same things. Especially the glitches, such as the log now giving credit on entirely wrong days. I just tried to log my evening of 19 March and got a slash for AM 20 March. ———————————————————— I love the app and the purpose behind it. The library feature is a good way to help with sorting old journals to go find old logs, notes and projects. The quick log feature is great when you’re not right next to your journal. It would be nice if the app didn’t skip the reflection quote because you have log items. The addition of pictures for all pages at first might seem excessive, but I’d used as a way to capture big stuff, becomes much less overwhelming. My big complaint right now is the reflection feature seems to be glitching out. It’s not capturing two reflections a day (case and point, I just got credit for my AM 15JAN reflection and it’s still 14JAN), and will remind me of evening reflections at noon, morning reflections at night, or just get stuck on a screen telling me to backup my files..Version: 2.0.2

Not A BULLET JOURNAL at all.This is NOT a bullet journal! It is a place to store pictures of the Pages of your bullet Journal. What an utter waste of money. Do not buy app!.Version: 2.0.4

Great butIt deleted all of my journals when I reinstalled it on a new phone! Why doesn’t this give the option to store it all on iCloud?.Version: 1.3

Loved it and then...They removed two important features that I used: tags and overlapping months. I journal a lot and tags were essential for me to find things easily and quickly. Now that it’s gone, I have to go into each journal to look at the index. It takes a lot of time. Also, you can’t have two journals that start and end on the same month. So if I start a journal on July 15th, I have to end the previous journal in June. Why did you make these changes?.Version: 2.0.3

Really upset you can’t use two journals with the same date.This app has entirely denied me being able to post two journals onto it. I have a large pre written out yearly planner and a field notes to write in. But thanks to the weird mandatory date adding, it’s impossible for me to figure out how to add a second journal since it won’t even let me past the date page or give me any additional info. So I’ve deleted my journal and reuploaded all the pics several times now and am just giving up..Version: 2.1.1

PointlessThis really is pointless. It's literally just content from the website. I have loads of really simple ideas I'd love to see in a bullet journal app so assumed at least one of them might be in here but - no....! Hugely disappointing..Version: 1.0

Would it have killed you to include a how to guide?I tried indenting notes and found that I had migrated them instead. Migrating notes? ok I guess. But how do I turn them back to notes? Mah. Come to think of it, how do I migrate tasks? I can swipe to mark them done, but not migrate them..Version: 2.1.1

Reflection feature not working correctlyAfter the update, my PM reminder changed to AM. I corrected the reminder times, but when I log the reflection, it shows on the next day. Also, it used to make a sound when it was complete. Please fix. Okay, so now you just updated the app, but Reflexions doesn’t seem to work at all. I stopped using the app because the OCD part of my brain couldn’t handle the days being checked of incorrectly. Several reviewers have commented about the same issue!.Version: 2.0.3

Nice, but the long loading Animation every time!...Whenever you want to log with this app away from your bullet journal, you'll have to wait for all the categories to slowly fade in from top to bottom which might be pretty but is hardly productive and efficient; for some reason the log is the last category instead of the first! So, you'll be waiting the longest if you want to do any logging! This... is very poor design, and makes the app cumbersome and frustrating to use even as just a 'companion'. Other than that, it's okay. It's pretty, minimalistic, smooth, and does what it's advertised to do. Is it worth the price tag though?.... It might be for you, but I'd warn you to investigate this app's flaws first before taking the plunge if you don't want to be immediately disappointed what feels like... a free very basic app designed to get you to buy official bullet journals (that's all the store category is for...)..Version: 1.4.1

New update is bright orange! :(New update is so bright and sensory overloading that I no longer use the app, screenshots are nothing like the actual colours. Such a shame really. Really detracts from all positive features..Version: 2.5.0

GlitchingKeeps glitching back to new quotes. Is no longer working properly..Version: 1.4.1

This is not a journalI didn't read the reviews before purchasing this app. I feel like a mug. This is just a guide it is not the bullet journal on your phone. If thats what you're expecting do not purchase it. Waste of money, really disappointed..Version: 1.0

Really needs flexibility and font changesThis app needs work or retirement. I am an avid BuJo user and I even belong to the BuJo U community. This app needs 2 things at the top of my list: - flexibility for exporting (in a batch or even page by page) to a common format like PDF. My pages are trapped in a proprietary format. - increase in font size and/or sans serif style. The type is hard to read, and I’m not even old yet. I use this app as a digital archive of my paper notebooks, for when I can’t or don’t want to go find the right notebook physically. I don’t find it comfortable to use every day for logs..Version: 2.1.1

Oh my goodness! I've been scammedThis is not a Bullet Journaling App! I love the bullet journal system. But beware, this is a paid for web wrapper around the website help content. I've just paid £3 for access to a free website. What an idiot I am! This is a formatted help file for BJ. Because it is paid for, you may (like me) assume it is an app for Bullet Journaling. It is not..Version: 1.0

Flaws In v2.0.1Since the latest update I have had major issues with the app. Reflection times were reset to AM. I can now log reflections before the next reflection time, i.e I can accidentally log evening reflection during the day. The text on the reflection page cuts off on the bottom of the screen (probably fine if you have iPhone X and newer where the screen is a different shape). The swipe back to the main screen is way too sensitive and easy to accidentally trigger. All in all this update has rendered the app fairly unusable, which is a shame as I loved and used the previous version daily..Version: 2.0.1

Anything you add disappears after 48 hours?Just starting to read the instructions, and this is a show stopper for me.Version: 1.4.1

Needs more customizabilityThere are small things that make this app hard for me to use regularly that i feel like would be really simple to fix. and i think a lot of it for me is wanting the app experience to feel more similar to the actual bullet journal. the fact that the log puts newer entries at the top of the page really throws me off, since i can't do that in my actual bullet journal. i wish there could be a toggle option for whether new entries are above or below the old ones. i also wish completed tasks didn't automatically grey out when marked as complete. also, right now if you decide to change a post from a task to note to event or whatever, it takes you back to the home screen, which is a really busy page and makes it harder for me to want to automatically come to the app when i would otherwise write it in my journal. when i'm having a brain blast and am trying to plan something out, all of the page switching really interrupts my train of thought..Version: 2.1.1

Clunky interface, annoying soundsAnnoying clicking on every navigation in the interface. Missing a detailed written description of the system, relying on videos which are just linked from YouTube..Version: 1.0

Not worth it.The app should be free. It doesn't offer any new information that you can't find online. Not worth $4.99.Version: 1.4.1

UnnecessaryThere are other apps, *FREE* apps that do more than this app. This app is a superfluous addition to one’s productivity. You do not need it. As I already use DayOne, Evernote and Google Calendar, so my digital journaling and tasks are fully covered, tagged, archived, and easily searched. Alarms and reminders are fully covered, *AND* cross platform friendly (smartphone —> tablet —> pc). I happily paid so I could try this app, evaluate it, and give credit where it’s due, but honestly, the Bujo app is unnecessary. Save your money..Version: 1.4

Not much hereNot sure how this is a companion to the journal. Wish I hadn't purchased it. Haven't used it at all. 😕.Version: 1.0

It's okNothing super special you can't already get on the website for free. Maybe as I use it more it will help/inspire..Version: 1.4.1

Not worth the moneyI love the bullet journal method of tracking actions, events and notes but this app offers little or no value for money. The information contained within this app can be found on the website for free. The app provides a alarm for reflection but this can be done in other habit type apps which are more flexible in their implementation. This app currently is not worth the money being charged..Version: 1.0

Very buggy since latest updateFinding it less helpful since update. Major problem with Reflections, times all at AM. Even after alteration, not logging properly. Won’t use again until a fix. Very disappointed, as this isn’t a cheap app to buy..Version: 2.0.2

Very limitedI was disappointed in this app. It offers very little. I was hoping something that would allow you to scan all your pages and offer tagging or text recognition. It only lets you scan your index pages and cannot recognize text. At the least this app should be offered as a freebie to promote sals of their notebooks. The best companion to the notebooks is Evernote. You can scan all pages and recognize text in them..Version: 1.4
