Logger Reviews

Logger looks promising, but the fact that it doesn’t even have an option for 12-hr time clock is a dealbreaker for me. Once it gets necessary basic features like these I might find it useful and change my rating.

Logger lets you add date/time stamped notes to log and you can edit individual entries. There are almost no settings or customizations: for example you can’t define the date/time format for the list). And the share option creates a text file (so can’t share to clipboard or email). For me, the purchase options are way too expensive for what is offered. You have to pay to change the display from purple text on black background and that only changes the main box you write in, the header still has the black background. Also, it would be nice to have some logs that are for date only (without time).

Logger does what I want, namely allows me to journal my pain levels during the day (so I can record post injection pain in my hip), but…. (1) Date stamp on left side of data entries is centered in the middle of the text field. This makes it very difficult to tell where that entry starts and stops. The Date stamp should be on the first line of the text data (and there should be a blank line separating entries). (2) The Date Stamp needs to also include the Time stamp (maybe as an option), because when I’m journaling, things change quite often throughout the day. I need to know the time of that entry at a glance, but can only tell the time of the entry if I open that data entry for editing. (3) I know I could do this with a spreadsheet, but if I could add a few fields of my own, and give them labels (like pain level), then export all the data to a spreadsheet, I could create a chart of my pain levels. Logger in general is quite a good fit for what I need, but would be more useful with the format changes mentioned above. Thanks for creating this little handy app!

Will Logger log iMessages that someone unsends? Would be useful if was able to log incoming iMessages before the other person gets a chance to unsend what they send.

I do not write reviews often, but man was Logger made for someone like me. Time stamped, date stamped, location stamped, all while allowing me to quickly jot a note down. So simple yet so addictively sound! One issue I quickly came across was the lack of a global search. The separation of logs is nice, but it’d be nice to search through all those logs at once in case i’m not too sure where an entry is at exactly. Other than that, Logger is seriously so good.

I like it a lot, and it already suites my needs for what I use it for perfectly, though I wouldn't mind some visual updates, especially customizability options and especially on the mac version where there is a lot more visible at once. Some things that I would like the ability to change: 1. Add more space between every entry just to visually separate them better. (just a tiny bit more) On the phone you only see so many entries so it isn't so bad, but on the computer they feel too closely packed. In general, I think the mac version could use more padding arounnd objects in general, for instance, the number indicating how long ago the entry was made feels quite close to both the color bar and the text to the right. 2. Add extra space, or a header row with a date, at midnight of every day. This could even dynamically change depending how frequent the entries are. If there are multiple per day, include a header each day. If there is one or less per day but multiple per week, include a weekly header, and you could do the same for other larger intervals like months, maybe quarters, and years. This also doesn't need to be dynamic and could simply be a setting. 3. the ability to change how quickly the color bar next to the entries changes. I like the ability to visually see time difference, but if the entire screen contains entries from a single week then the gradient is so subtle it is hard to make out. Or perhaps have this dynamically change based on the range of currently visible entries? Or the colors could be on a log scale so it changes faster at the top of a list but as you scroll down it changes more and more gradually? Hard to guess at the best solution without trying it out but there might be something better than how it works currently. It also wouldn't hurt to be able to simply turn that column off. 4. Lastly, just a font selection would be nice. I do like the feel you are going for, especially on the phone where it is full screen. But on the mac where it is next to other windows I wouldn't mind the ability to at least use the system font, but it wouldn't hurt to allow any font.

would be great if you could please add the option to see how many Hours,Minutes since the last log & the time between logs

Logger is simple and clean. I love that I can add my location and photos. However, iCloud sync is not supported. Really hope that can be in their roadmap.

Pretty cool I like the look and simplicity of it

I love Logger. It's just what I wanted. Simple. No frills. It just logs stuff.

I only have one wish for Logger . Siri support.

Siri support

Me: Hey Siri, start logging.
Siri: What do you want me to log?
Me: bought a new guitar 🎸.
Siri: Added, with your location tagged.

I have an app through which I can log water intake using Siri. I hope the above logging method is implantable via Siri. Thanks!

I have been looking for a simple time logging app and this is actually a perfect solution. Thank you to the devs

Easy to use and well organized format

As much as we live in the digital world, note taking doesn’t have be. How often have you come across that task you forgot to do? Only to be reminded by a particular location or your house, your neighborhood, your work? How about if you see something that inspires you and you want to jot down some ideas? Today, I jot them down in one of the many note taking apps and literally time stamp and write descriptive location details. With this app, I can type up a quick note and it records the location with date/time stamp.

this app is new but it works. It doesn’t need to be heavy and rich with all these bulky features.

Looking forward to seeing Logger grow.

I’m a fan of Logger. I cannot think of anything to add except maybe quantitative data capture, expenses or other numerics such as mileage or repetition of exercise or similar. But, it’s an ideal this app!

Great for everyday posting of my activities.
I love that it records dates of my posts and I can go back to add something if I forget it.
I just went ahead and bought the lifetime membership and started posting.
Thank you for a great app.

Update: Thank you for adding sync! I’m upgrading my rating to five stars.

I download Logger recently and I’m finding a lot of use for it. Would you please add sync so I can access my notes on different devices. You could please also add the ability to sort the notes and/or pin to the top. Thanks

Logger is exactly what I was looking for. Very simple, no frills, does what I need. I’d been trying to find an app that would help to manage my ADHD and this one is very close to being The One.

That said, here are some missing features that I hope can be added:

- iCloud sync
- Customizable themes (colors and font)
- Please let me attach photos.
- Shortcuts. It would be amazing if I could run a shortcut and instantly log my location. I forget *everything* and it would be such a big help. I know I can open Logger and create a new log but that’s not gonna work as well as a big shiny “log location” button on my Home Screen. My brain is essentially a toddler.

I have searched for an app like this app for months and none of them worked as they should. this app is the exception. It’s clean, responsive, and works without issue. I’ve also reached out to the developer with questions/requests and the response has been almost immediate and with extreme professional response. If you need an app like this, this is the one.

I will admit, my disappointment in making the one-time purchase of Logger was partly my fault, for just assuming it would span to my iPhone, iPad, and Mac. I should’ve known it would be a $19.99 fee per device. That was my mistake, but a mistake that will prevent me from using Logger any further. Kudos at least for offering a one-time purchase. At least it’s not one of those subscription mode only pieces of garbage. For $19.99 though, I should absolutely be able to have it on all 3. For such a simple piece of software, that’s a hefty fee per device. Make it account bound, and I’ll absolutely change my rating.
