Haven't used the app yet but the "Facebook"ish theme and illustration-style on the first page made me recoil reflexively. Maybe because privacy is a big concern when it comes to journals and we have come to associate that colorscheme with distrust and privacy breaches lately. I think tweaking the colors and illustration style might help.

Works really well and feels super smooth. Really great.

It has a dark mode with different colors. Let's not villify blue in general though :P
