Update on Journaling

Update On Journaling - Today was my second day to “restart” my long established habit of journaling, this time using the “Journey” App. Using this app allows me to do all of the things I previously did by hand and MUCH MUCH more (and much faster since I am a slow writer).

For keeping track of ideas to keeping track of time this app is now my “go to” essential program. The fact that I can access it thru any of my platforms, and it syncs across them all, makes it perfect. The ability to “search” for my idea (even if I cannot remember more than one word of the idea) is a huge plus!

Below is the “official” description from the Google Store. By not paraphrasing, this limits my ability to exaggerate or overstate abilities. I hope this is helpful for my friends in WA who not yet found a means of corralling ideas.

Hope your day was happy and productive,

Steve

It might take me a bit to figure all that out but, thanks so much!!

Hello Steve,

Thank you so much for this information, I will be trying this out as I have been looking for something like this for some time. I do use Evernote so it's pleasing to hear that the app should accept imports from Evernote… etc!

kind regards,
~Arthur

Great Information provided by you, Steve. Will bookmark them in case I need them. Thanks Sadie

Steve you must have read my thoughts. I have a journal but find it difficult to find the time to sit and write. With this app I can write when I have downtime, when I wake in the night or in the morning with a thought/idea I can record it. Thank you for sharing. Cheers kev

Glad to this might be helpful to you Kev !

You aren't going to be happy until i write more are you Steve. Thanks buddy

Oooooo I'm a poem and paper kind of girl when it comes tip journaling or writing poetry. I just can't seem to journal electronicly

If that works best....STICK WITH IT! I love writing also it is just that it takes me so long to do it, and well at age 67........

Wow, Steve! Old School Me doesn't even have a clue about some of that stuff. You are light years ahead of me, Luke Skywalker! Did I tell you I don't even have a cell phone? I'm talking prehistoric here, Buddy. I'll star it for my future self. :)

Rick - Good, then we will talk about cryogenic suspension soon :-)

Uh Oh, are you going to make me into a popsicle? :)

But just think, you could write a song about it before we perform the procedure !

Already got one-it's called "Cold as Ice." :)

Now just need to have WA put on audio attachment so we can hear it! The song isn't about beer is it ? :-)

Don't feel too badly Rick, Dinosaurs are important too! Lol!

ROAR! :)

COLD beer is good, but, no, it's about being treated cold by a woman. Imagine that! :)

Knock be down with a feather..........how could that possibly happen?

I know it's almost unheard of... :)

I was totally shocked !

Good stuff here Steve, thanks for sharing. This one is deffinately going into a folder and a bookmark too

Thanks, Kari - This seemingly inconsequential little app has helped me tremendously because of the cross platform and syncing capability. Have a good evening! Steve

Instead of saving for later I went right to the google store. I've been using Journey for a couple of days now and it really is as wonderful as you say. No exaggeration on your part at all.
So happy I didn't drag my feet!

Thanks, Kari. Terrific good news! Steve

thanks

This sounds very useful, Steve. I'm going to check it out. Thanks!
