AI Journal Talks Back: Glimmo

I have tried journaling in the past but have a hard time sticking to it. The AI feature is so cool. They respond to entries and you can interact which is fun. Mood tracker is great. Can’t wait to see how this app continues to evolve.

I’ve tried a bunch of self-help, self-care, and journaling apps, but this one really captured my attention immediately. It has a cute mascot with a polished aesthetic, plenty of prompts and templates to help you get started with journaling, and cute and clever emojis that go along with the content of your journal. The AI companions are also so fun and hilarious with their responses, and you can even create your own companion with the premium version! I feel motivated to come back and share my thoughts with my little AI friends regularly. 😂

It doesn't try to shove premium down your throat, even if features are a bit limited without it (there are no insights unless you're a premium user), but I'm seriously considering premium. The thing where you journal like it's a social network and characters (or historical figures) reply to your "posts" is so fun! I recommend Barbie above anyone else, I'm really loving Emily and if you like games, Ethan is a must-have. Other than that, I'm slowly trying out new characters, so maybe I'll edit this in a few weeks with a bigger list!
