Comments on Moment Diary - Simple Journal for Android

★★★★★ Saniya Himayath · Mar 28, 2021
Been using this diary since 4 years now and crossed 1200 entries yayayy!! I love this app, and I have premium membership since three years, no drawbacks for me, also you can use a GIF as a background (ꈍᴗꈍ) for the diary. Love the personalization options. Oh and the amazing (人 •͈ ᴗ•͈) stickers ! And the time trip option, I keep using that when I get bored and want to look back in the past entries. Please do give this diary a try.
★★★★☆ A Google user · Oct 26, 2018
Have been using this app for many years with no complaints. One of the more recent changes added a "splash screen" and now the app takes significantly longer to open up, and clicking on an entry to edit can open up two. You can imagine my disdain when I finish writing several lines, hit submit, and there is an unedited version of the entry underneath it. This overwrites all the stuff I just wrote. Extremely annoying. Please fix this soon. I have gone back to version 6.2.6 because I am tired of waiting, both for the app to start up and for some kind of fix to be implemented.
★☆☆☆☆ Jessica Sneed · Jul 14, 2018
I've had this app across 3 phones with the same password set each time. And yet here we are, and the app isn't accepting the only password I've ever used 🙃🙃
★☆☆☆☆ Steve Yune · May 4, 2022
I've used this app for many years without problems, but recently I have backed up my diary (years of entries) before resetting my phone. Now, when I try to restore my backup, it fails to restore it. Years of entries lost. I'm deeply frustrated and angry. How could you program something that fails to restore your backups? Please don't download this useless app. Go to other diary apps.
