Who would have thought I’d get obsessed keeping up a diary so late in my life? It makes me laugh everytime I think about it. I have to admit I was first looking for an app to keep a log of what was going on during my cruise in the Caribbean. I never planned on using Journey past the cruise but I guess it just kept growing on my as I was using it!
Journey is free and you have to option to in-app purchase an upgrade to enjoy all the options. The extra options you get when you purchase the app are:
Things I like about the app:
Why would I ever want to keep a diary? The creators of Journey are pointing to an article by Currently Higher Perspective showing 6 Reasons Keeping A Journal Will Change Your Life and I can easily relate to #1 and #5.
You can keep your journal on your device (synced “privately” on Google Drive) or publish what you want on Facebook, Tumblr or Twitter. Each entry keeps your location (using your GPS) and the current weather!
I joined the Beta community on Google+ so I can receive the new releases early and share my input with the developers to help make the app better.
Again, the app is free and if you go full, the app can seem pricey at $6.47; if you’re serious about journaling, it’s totally worth it.
Such a great app! Try it and let me know what you think in the comments below!

- Markdown shortcuts
- Night Mode in edit mode

- Reminders won’t let you forget to write on a daily basis.
- Chrome app available! so you’re not limited to only your phone or tablet.
- You can read your entries on Android Wear (https://youtu.be/gkg7Ao6ZZx8). Simply shake your watch to shuffle!
