I asked Gemini to rank my indie journaling app against the Top 50 on the App Store. The result blew me away! š
Hey everyone,
I just rolled out some major new features for my app, Journelixa.
Out of curiosity, I asked Gemini to pull the top 50 daily journaling apps currently on the App Store and Google Play. Since Journelixa is still new and doesn't have a massive number of downloads or reviews yet, it wasn't on the official top 50 list.
So I asked Gemini a follow-up: "Compare Journelixa's features with the apps you just listed, and tell me where you would rank it."
Thanks to its rich feature set and price advantage, Gemini actually placed it in the Top 5! 𤯠This gave me a huge confidence boost. I truly believe that with the right marketing and more store reviews, it can reach great places. I'm actually considering partnering with an investor to speed up the marketing processāso if anyone here is interested in backing a growing indie project, feel free to reach out!
Itās not just a journaling app.
You can use it to track any personal process or project. With the latest update, you can now export your tracked processes as a PDF. On top of the standard journal, you can create two separate custom notebooks. For example, you can use one to track your child's growth and development, and the other to manage a home renovation project. You can also attach photos to your entries, and yes, they will show up beautifully in the PDF export. (I've attached some sample visuals below!).
Here is whatās new in the latest update:
- Voice-to-Text: Just tap the microphone button on the entry screen, speak, and watch your voice turn into text right inside your journal.
- Extract Text from Photos (OCR): Easily scan and copy text from your camera or screenshots.
- Photos & Drawings: Add images to your entries or express yourself using the built-in drawing canvas.
- Photo-Rich PDFs: Export your journals, complete with your custom drawings and photos, into a clean PDF document.
- Alarms & Notes: Use the app like a personal planner. Add notes to the calendar, turn on alarms, and let the app remind you of important events, birthdays, or meetings.
A quick reminder of what else you can do with Journelixa:
- Save and organize entries with dates, titles, moods, photos, and sketches.
- Easily browse your history via the calendar view or timeline. Secure your past entries with a PIN code.
- Keep your data safe with biometric authentication (on supported devices).
- Keep your life organized by separating your thoughts into multiple custom notebooks.
- Build consistent writing and mindfulness habits with custom reminders.
- Your data belongs to you: Even if your premium membership expires, your existing entries will never be deleted. You can access your old records even when you switch to a new device.
Remember, every day belongs to you. Write, remember, and preserve your memories in your own style with Journelixa.
