Good App

Ive been using this app for over five years now and love it. I started using it for work to keep track of notes that used to use a paper diary for. I found that I could use this and refer back to notes I took years ago. Lately I have been using this as a personal diary. Its useful in that pictures can be loaded as well as the text, plus the backup is great. Really good app for the right price.

Chronicle rawks!

Ive been thinking about journalling for awhile and this app fits my needs perfectly, especially that I can lock away my thoughts. At the moment, I dont need the notebook add-on, but I do wish I could make entries a different colour; sometimes you feel blue and sometimes you just feel like rockin the pink.

Love it

I totally love this app. Its so user friendly and love the fonts and background styles. Im addicted to it.

Journaller

I totally enjoy Chronicle. I write my journal every day and I add pictures and fav information about my day. I would love it if there was any way to highlight important information. But over all its a good program.

Perfect app

I love this app and wish Id bought it earlier. It meets many needs. I like organizing information in multiple places and this app allows for ease of access. I agree with the other reviewer: being able to highlight content in the text would be nice. Very happy with this simple perfect tool.

Meets my needs.

Use it everyday. Love the speech to text function

Simple app

Wonderfully clean, quick, simple and direct: perfect for quick notes, thoughts--so you can exit and then move on

Natural and Satisfying

I have been using Chronicle for a few years. At first, it felt unnatural and I missed my favourite pencil and binder. It didnt take long to adopt this new method of recording my days thoughts, dreams and feelings. Now, I would be lost without my friend, the Chronicle. Recording is seamless and my thoughts are free to wander and link up to new ideas and possibilities. The automatic time stamp, the spell check and the splendid script seem to add an importance or acceptance. I always look forward to writing here.

Last thing before sleep

I journal using this app every day. Great and very easy.

Chronicle for my horse

I really like the app. I write every time I am with my horse. Then I can go back and see the improvements we make together.

Very fine writing tool

I love chronicle for a number of reasons, firstly, I can hold it and write in the vertical position, second because I can drag and position and size any number of pictures in each entry, and third, because I can customize the fonts and background colours. My only issue to keep it from five stars is that I would like to enter different fonts for certain entries and not have that choice affect all the previous entry fonts.

No evolution

Very-very slow development process. If you wish some lacking feature, it will be added after forever.

Bella

Well done. Would like to change the font and the font size while writing a note. So that the title can have font and size different from the content. And moreover some more color for the font. Like the pass code on the whole journal and on just some pages. Thanks

Good, Not Perfect

Chronicle is a good journal App, even though not great styled. There is a lot to do in order to get it really as a top App. For instance, those kiddish emoticons are to be eliminated as soon as possible. And the font and text management is still too much basic to be judged well done.

Old Faithful

This app is an old favorite of mine. I brought it with my first generation iPad and Im on my forth gen. I still use the app for writing my poetry and other my professional story telling. I have taken advantage of the upgrades over the years which has enhanced my ability to write, highlight, change text for emphasis and the like. Thanks for keeping the app pure to its original intent, yet making changes that ate additive but not disruptive to how we use it.

Like and want to love.

I like it but I would like a way to learn how to move the photos I add. Having a way to resize them. Ive looked and Im at a loss.

Works like it should

I love the interface and the ability to password protect, as well as the ability to have more than one notebook. I would love it even more if it would sync across multiple devices (iphone and ipad) and if I could change fonts for individual words or entries.

Fairly good journaling option

Ive been using this app for about a month. I like that I can attach multiple pictures to one entry which will be great for special occasions and travel. Dont like that although I have the app on both my iPad and my iPhone, but I cant view entries across the two devices. Have sent emails requesting assistance twice with no response.

Review update

Oops. Updated to the latest version. It wiped out all of my entries, except the very first. Which is odd. Anyway, I am now struggling with getting my backup loaded. Why, if you can backup to Dropbox cant you restore from Dropbox? Oh well,someone else can figure that out. I think I will quit using this until things get straightened out. I have changed it from a two to a three. Thats because I figured out on my own how to restore a Dropbox backup. The bad news is that it was over six months old.

Really like it but...

I really like it but I havent figured out how to merge information from one device to another. Its better than any other journal app in the App Store. I have a years worth of journaling and pictures on an old iPad that Id like to get on my new one.
