1 year agoI honestly wanted to like this. I’ve slowly been phasing out third-party apps because Apple’s stock apps are getting close to if not better than the third-party apps I use, but there’s no way this even competes with Day One in its current form:
- No multiple journals, not even tags.
- Only on the phone, no Mac or iPad app.
- There’s actual placeholder text displaying in some of the recommended prompts I’ve gotten.
This honestly may be one of the most embarrassing app launches Apple’s done in recent years. I just keep asking myself why did they even release this? Even for a developer beta, it’s bad.
I can’t say it’s been my go to over the years, but I picked up a Twelve South HiRise 3 a few weeks ago when it went on sale for almost half off, and I love it. I didn’t like that it didn’t come with the actual charger, but it’s been solid and looks nice. It is a little bigger than I expected though.
Previously I was using an Anker 2-1 that allowed you to pop in your original watch charger. I replaced with when Standby came out and because wasn’t MagSafe so I was constantly waking up to a dead phone.
Before that, I had a little teeny Spigen charger stand that you popped the original charger into. For $10ish dollars there’s not a lot to complain about it. I still have it and it did a great job at staying put on my dresser so I wasn’t worried about the cable falling somewhere.
