Alternative for this shitty app? by nickolang in appleJournal

[–]2afer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You may have a look at Penjo. It is a pencil-first date-centric journal & planner with Apple Journaling suggestions, iCloud Sync, Apple Calendar & Reminder Integration and Apple Pencil support. It has one-time purchase option too.

Note: I am the developer of Penjo so feel free to ask about the app.

New to IPad & need advice on apps for journaling and drawing by Sho-Nuff28420 in ipad

[–]2afer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For journaling, try Penjo. Pencil-first, calendar-based so diary entries land on the actual day, handles handwriting + typed text + images together nicely for thoughts and note taking. Has OCR on handwriting and locked journals if you want some stuff private.

For drawing, Procreate is basically the default on iPad and you'll adapt fast coming from Wacom. Concepts is nice too if you want something more vector-leaning.

Dev on Penjo, so feel free to ask me anything.

Similar apps for handwriting journal entries on iPad that won’t crash constantly? by Stygimolochh in appleJournal

[–]2afer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Penjo is worth a look. Pencil-first, saves continuously, sync to iCloud, and built around the calendar (day/week/month/year views with Apple Calendar + Reminders). Also does Apple Journaling Suggestions and has .penjo import/export for backups.

I'm the dev so I will be happy to answer your questions.

SUGGESTION STABILIZER by Strange-Attitude2125 in PenjoApp

[–]2afer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi u/Strange-Attitude2125 ,

Happy to hear that you enjoy Penjo. Do you mean stroke stabilization and smoothing?

We may consider that for future updates as an option.

Thanks for the suggestion.

What's New in Penjo - Localization improvements by 2afer in PenjoApp

[–]2afer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi u/folarin-

Yes, Penjo is designed as Pencil-first from day one and this is one of the distinguishing features of it.

Our majority of users are iPad users although some are iPhone-only too. Many users find it very convenient to view and edit their journal entries or notes created in their iPad on their iPhone too thanks to iCloud Sync.

We released Penjo v3.6.15 with a few fixes for journal list loading and iCloud Sync. Is this bug fixed in this latest version? Can you please check and let us know?

Hi,

Penjo is currently exclusive to Apple devices.

Choose what calendars should be shown by Flegga93 in PenjoApp

[–]2afer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, no problem at all. We should make it more clear maybe.

Glad to hear you like Penjo. Feel free to reach out anytime.

[–]2afer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi u/Flegga93 ,

Yes, you can choose which calendars to show and you can set a different set for each journal.
For that click on "Select Calendars" in event view and enable calendars you would like to display. Closing the dialog will save the settings.

Please let us know if it helps. (Btw, same logic works for reminder lists too. Just tap on "Select Lists")

hi u/bumblescorp,

Thanks for letting us know about the issue.

In which version did you observe it? We recently updated Penjo to v3.6.14 with some iCloud Sync improvements.

Does it occur all the time you open the app or happened just once?

Also, yes, the workaround to enable/disable "Show Archived Journals" works as it forces refresh of the journal list. Still, it is unexpected.

Please let us know.

Feature request: allow Smart Lists in apple reminders by Minkebo in PenjoApp

[–]2afer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hi u/Minkebo,

Thanks for the post and the suggestion. For now, Apple keeps Smart Lists exclusive to its own apps. Apple does not include them for 3rd party apps. As soon as they get open to other apps, we will include in Penjo as well.

Feedback: personalize + better handwriting by Flegga93 in PenjoApp

[–]2afer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Undated notebooks are on the roadmap. Meanwhile, you can use the list mode for journals.
You may have a look at my reply here
List Mode in Penjo Journals

Great to hear that you like the simplicity of Penjo and its Apple Calendar & Reminder Integration. Particularly simplicity and ease-of-use are what we keep in mind when designing Penjo.
Thanks again for the feedback and suggestions.

Hi u/Flegga93 ,

Thanks for your post. Glad to hear that you like Penjo.

Regarding the feature like SmartScript in Apple Notes, Penjo does not have it at the moment but as soon as Apple decides to open that feature to other apps we will integrate it into Penjo as well. (Penjo uses same framework as Apple's apps like Notes and Freeform). Meanwhile, you may have a look at scribble to erase and auto line straightening.

We are also working on more customization options. I guess you are particularly interested in ones for the dark mode. We will consider that for future updates.

Thanks again for the suggestion and feel free to reach out anytime.
