Rosebud's AI feels very refined compared to other apps I've tried out. The "go deeper" function is great when trying to find the words to express yourself to your support group or to just vent. I like the recommended journaling parts as it gives you a good place to start if you're not really a journaling type. I also like the personalized goals. The premium is expensive, but I find it worth the price!

I don't leave reviews. I only review apps if I find something truly amazing, and this is that. I've tried journaling consistently and I just can't do it, I have ADHD and I forget literally everything that happened throughout the day. this app completely fixes that, it reminds you what was going on, prompts you, and through natural conversation, it helps you journal. I will happily use this app for as long as they stay around.

I couldn't find it before but there is clearly a drafts section where the app will store your unfinished drafts, and will even allow you to keep the original passed date of writing when publishing the finished older entry. I've written three consecutive entries so far and I'm really enjoying the app! I'm astonished at how crisp and easy to navigate the UI is, and the AI's analysis of your feelings/thought process is beautifully crafted -- I love how it identifies main points/goals so well. :)
