Reviews: What People Think About Zinnia: Planner & Journal

S. M. Klyde

Rating: 5/5

I love this app. I’m caught in that weird space where I love technology, but I also love the tactile feel of journaling. Finding Zinnia has been awesome for bridging that gap and letting me journal on my iPad. For an iPad journaling app, I don’t think anything compares to Zinnia. Penbook is what I used for a long time, but eventually I ditched it for this one. The customization options and control you have just can’t be beat for that Art/Junk Journal feel. That said, I feel it’s lacking for iPhone. Perhaps part of that is the loss of the Apple Pencil, but I can’t find any templates or ready to use planners optimized for iPhone, which means very small fonts and lots of zooming and panning. If there was even just one or two ready to use type planners for iPhone it would be a huge improvement in my opinion. I’m not going to get deep into one of my art or project books on my phone, I do that on my tablet. Having a nice, customizable planner for my phone though—especially if it could sync to my calendar like Penbook can—that would be huge and I’d use that all the time! For iPad, if you’re looking for a great journaling app, this is it. If you’re only planning to, or only able to use your phone, unfortunately I’d say Zinnia has a little ways to go. Penbook has their “Little Everywhere and When” book specially for use on your phone. If Zinnia added something similar, they’d win. Hands down.

This app is seriously the only complete digital planning/journal app on the market. I’ve used several, including the paid versions of the most popular ones. There is always a significant issue with one of the features. I love GoodNotes and they have made fixes to issues that used to drive me crazy, like the crashes and lagging; however, their handwriting algorithm is awful. The worst one of all the digital writing apps I’ve used. I have an iPad Pro, 2nd gen pencil, and a paperlike screen protector. Another app I found has a really good algorithm for the pencil, but the rest of it is not very good, without the ability to use even system fonts. I wanted an app that allowed me to make planners and notebooks, use PDFs that I make/purchase, insert graphics, notes, etc., and be able to utilize both type and handwriting (and not have it look completely different than what I write on paper). This app has it all! Then, in addition to your own graphics, there are a ton of templates and layouts built in. Some graphics have actual text lines built in, so you just touch and type, no need to drag typed text around and it is much faster when creating long to-do lists or grocery lists than handwriting it all out. I could literally go on forever, but you’re wasting time reading this. Just get it. I haven’t opened another writing app since I subscribed to this one.

UPDATE: I have now been using the paid version for 3 months. It is worth every dang penny. To those of you think it’s too expensive, perhaps you should change your thought process. This is meant to be a fully immersive journaling app. If you were to go out and purchase multiple bullet journals, craft paper, pens, paint brushes, washi tape, stamps, stickers, etc., you’d be in for far more than $40 every year. Oh and they add new content every month. It is clear that the developers put in a lot of work and are constantly making it better. They deserve to get paid. ORIGINAL REVIEW: If you are looking for the perfect journaling app that gives you a truly blank canvas to work with, this is it! This is the greatest creative journaling app I have ever used. It gives me real freedom to design every single page however I want. The developers listen to the users and add highly sought after features. This is already an incredible app but it will just keep getting better and better with every update. BTW this review is based solely on the free version. I will be purchasing the full membership today with zero hesitation! $40 per year is well worth it, especially if you consider how much you would spend trying to create a physical journal with this many options.
