Poorly built
Complaints: Unreliable syncing, loooong animations which lead to bottom press delays, and bugs galore. For example, when I create a new entry, the color displayed will be the color of the journal the previous entry was entered into unread of he color associated with the journal I am currently adding to.
The UI of the iOS and Mac apps dont align in some cases, making performing simple actions like adjusting the date/time of an entry complicated. Additionally, it feels like every time I open the app the developer has moved pieces of UI to different locations.
If I had to give the UI design of Day One a grade out of 100%, Id give it a 55%. Its very obvious that this app is not built by people in Silicon Valley.
I use this app about 8 to 10 times per day to create quick 1-5 sentence entries and I dont like it at all. If given the chance, I would completely redesign this application on both iOS and Mac.
