Loop Journal app review

Introduction

How often have you had the best intentions in mind when you set out to keep a daily journal only to end up giving up a few days in? The Loop Journal app for your iPod touch, iPad, and iPhone offers users a modified approach to journaling making it quick and easy for all. This app is very unique and not at all your typical journal style app. You will be answering questions that will take you no more than three minutes and these answers will in turn be your daily entry. 

A Modified Journal

Instead of your typical journal where you need to sit down and dedicate a solid amount of time to writing about your day or thoughts, the Loop Journal app takes its own approach. You are provided with 365 different and very thought-provoking questions: one for each day of the year. Simply answer the question and you've got a thoughtful entry each and every day. These questions will take you no more than three minutes to answer, so there is no reason you won't have time to fit it in. And just to add another level to the user-friendliness of it the app will remind you each day so you don't forget to make your entry.

The app requires iOS 7.1 or later to use and doesn't yet have a user rating or customer comments. In its latest update the app's icon changed and it enhanced its support of Simplified Chinese.

An Enjoyable Experience

The Loop Journal app provides users with a very smooth and enjoyable experience. The approach just feels so unique and because it takes up so little time this becomes something fun to do each day. I also like the fact that it would appeal to a wide age range from teenagers and up. When the one year is over you are able to start all over again and answer the questions, and what’s cool is to look back and see how you have changed. It's a great way to get a better understanding of your thoughts and feelings and how events in your life shape you.

Some of the features in the app include the fact it is protected with a password so your information is kept secure, it supports Dropbox backup, you can choose your theme, and you can share your entries to Twitter, Facebook, and Weibo. It's really a very fun experience that can prove to be pretty enlightening.
