You had one job! Simply terrible at fetching photos, no matter what source you pick — phone, Google, Facebook. It just spins and spins, and never shows any photos. And when the albums finally do show up — like they did by the time I was finished posting this review — they are in only in a semi-logical order, even after the latest update. They certainly don’t follow the order of the platform you are getting them from. Example: photos from the native iPhone photo app are MOSTLY in reverse date order, with the newest photos at the very bottom of the list. As a profession photographer with over 130,000 photos, this takes a LONG time to scroll down to the most current photos. Not all of the albums in my photo library show up (or at least not in the order created). When I do open an album it takes FOREVER to show even a single photo — on high speed cable internet! I can watch a whole TV episode without one photo showing up.

I found the journi app very easy to use during a trip to Europe. Although integrating photos that I took with my DSLR required me to upload them to my iPhone photos before I could put them in journi, the logging and time stamping went well. However, once you finish your trip, going back to review it is very tedious. It can only be reviewed on the app or by purchasing a printed book. In my case, that book was nearly €90. I would like to be able to transfer the journey descriptions and photos to something like a PDF file that can be viewed on my computer, and shared with friends, but that doesn’t seem to be an option. I took this trip more than two years ago, and despite several upgrades to the app in the interim, reliving the trip is still only available on the app or by buying a printed book. As a disappointing result, I have not been able to share this trip with friends and family at all (getting the journi app just to review my trip on the small screen on their phone really isn’t a reasonable option). Unless journi comes up with a better sharing option, I will never use it for another trip again (and I haven’t used it on trips taken since that trip just for that reason)

Planned a 30 day family road trip and wanted an app that would allow me to keep a log of my memories through both words and photos. While very new to Journi I did find some hiccups. We are limited to 10 photos per memory if we could up that to 12-16 that would have been nice not to have to eliminate photos I really wanted to include. Their is no interface with instagram? Not sure why they’re no capabilities with Instagram? Sharing memories on Instagram would be amazing? Nice to add stamps of the different states of the US instead of just a US stamp. We road tripped through 7 states and it would have been nice to stamp them. Loved the ability to creat a book at the end of the trip and to have the ability to edit photos placement with my iPhone was the best compared to all other photo book apps. Thank you for the easy to use photo book app
