Momento: Private Journal Diary

I’m a real reviewer. Momento is such an easy to you and amazing app that becomes some what of a library of (in my case) revelations, insights, dreams…. The way the app is structured is really helpful. The free version is seriously good, however after reading the notes about the small development team in England that created this and the integrity the note seemed to convey that they honor I signed up for the annual subscription. I know that it will only enhances my already good experience. I remember one time a few years ago for some reason I lost all of the journal entries and I hadn’t yet exported a back up copy from the app. I was so sad about this and in shock, I messaged the developers and I for sure prayed and seriously, I think 2 weeks later, all of the entries were restored and for years since the app has been amazing. I especially like that there no outside sales ads!! Happy user here, who has recommended this app to others who also seem to be happy with it. Worth the paid subscription- in part just because of the awesome team behind this alone. You can tell heart and determination went into this.

I originally downloaded this app just for overseas trips, and I was only using it for that reason. But then I realized what an opportunity I was missing. This app makes journaling/recording/record keeping so easy. Even though I am a writer, sometimes I just don’t have the time or energy to write out everything, so I just do a quick video update and put it in the app. You can take pics and vids of parties and get-togethers. You don’t have to junk up your phone space or organize anything- just use the the app and it’s automatically stored by date. Also, it’s the reason I now feel free to throw away birthday cards etc . Usually, I’m too sentimental to throw them away and they just clutter things, but now I can just capture them and store them in my Momento. LOVE it.

I have tried many “Diary” apps and none was as easy and straightforward as this. So I actually use it. Crucial for me is that all information is stored on my device, not in an unknown cloud - or in Apple’s secure iCloud, which I use anyway for my storage. I also appreciate the option to add an entry any day, or when uploading a photo to have a choice to add the entry back on the day the picture was taken. I would have given it 5 stars if the export options would include a better format than plain text. When the developers add that, I will gladly subscribe and pay for the app. Because one day I’d like to get some or all of my entries into a printed book, including the photos.
