Dream Journal Ultimate 12+

Great simple app

I have used this app for many years, on and off. When i use it, i definitely notice my dream recall improving and my lucidity comes back.
The dream wall can be interesting to read about what other users are dreaming ( you can choose to make your dreams public or not). You can also put tags on your dreams, i believe to track recurring themes in your dreams. However, I wish there was less limits on the amounts of tags I can put on a dream because sometimes my dreams have a lot of elements that I’d like to record. The tags could be a lot more useful if you could search your dreams by tags / keywords. Also, although i can label my dream as lucid, i don’t see a way to filter my dreams and search for old lucid dreams. So it seems that a lot of the labeling could be used better.

All in all it’s a very nice app but I would love to see some improvements like the ones I just mentioned.

There is also a newer feature with AI generated dream images and interpretations for your dreams. It’s fun ( you get like 3 or 5 free generations and then have to pay $1.99/month if you want to continue to have that feature available) …
I appreciate that the app is free, and probably wouldn’t pay for the AI feature. But maybe I’ll support them in the future. If there was a One-time payment option instead of subscription ( maybe $5-10) , I’d definitely pay. Just don’t want to do a subscription.

Great, Simple, and Awesome Community

With other dream journals / dream journal apps I just feel like it’s either not enough to properly record my dreams or way too forced. But with this app I feel they don’t necessarily force anything on you (eg make you do a dream daily, etc) while still giving the option to record dreams in an organized yet not crazy way, meaning that I can easily write down my dreams when I wake up. I also found that by adding tags to the dreams (things you can do in the app) I can sort of ‘track’ what kind of dreams I’m having and when. Also there’s no set ‘outline’ for the dream so I can describe it, and even add things like little notes to myself (for example I dreamed about the titanic one night and had watched the titanic movie the night before. Later going over it I could see the obvious connection). You have the option to record your dreams as lucid dreams easily, as well as ‘adult’ / 18+ dreams, and you can make it public as well which allows for others to respond and make connections in your dreams that maybe you don’t see. It helps when others make insight as well, and overall the community is cool and it’s always neat to see other people’s dreams but at the same time again it’s not forced: you can choose to keep the dreams you post private if you want. I really like this dream journal, it’s free and best of all there’s no ads or annoying pop-ups or anything.

Nice, but Some Suggestions:

I quite like this app, and even started paying for it as of the AI Interpretation update. There’s an AI Image update that I’m not so sure of and personally don’t like all that much (and we don’t have transparency as to where the AI was trained yet—which is annoying as an artist myself). I would love to see functions that enable hiding/showing AI generations for each of a users dreams, or at least a master switch that controls every dream from one user so we can choose whether we want to see interpretations and/or images.

For example, I’d like a area in the settings where I can toggle a couple switches according to what interpretations or images I’d like to see, and what I’d like the public to be able to see. Ideally, there would be one switch for interpretations and one for images. If this was incorporated into the app, I would be very happy; these are definitely cool integrations, but not all of them are my favorite.

Thanks for providing a cool app for keeping track of dreams and continuing to update it. This is one of my favorite journaling(?) apps because of it.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for the review! Currently if you make a dream public, the interpretation and image is also public. If you keep the dream private, the interpretation and image are private.

We will add a setting in the next update to allow you to remove an image or interpretation from a dream.
