Launching a journaling tool soon. Any feedback?

    I'll be honest, an Ann Frank quote doesn't quite sit well with me on the landing page of a new app. I understand that the quote is relevant, but it doesn't immediately conjury positive imagery.

    Apart from that, I like how it's very minimalist and lets the app talk for itself. The colour palette is very calming and presents a pride in simplicity.

    I'd personally like a bit of elaboration on how you've ensured that the journal is secure too, but that may just because I have a tech background.

    Overall, it looks great!

      Thank you for the feedback. I really like the quote, but it didn't feel right to add the quote, but not the person.

      Regarding the privacy / security, I want to put an emphasis on it when I have end to end encryption going on. Until then, anything I say will be bogus.

    I like the keyword web that gets created. I'd double down on that concept. Allow people to link feeling and people.

    Looks like I can't share a link, and give a description too. Goal to launch a privacy and web focused journaling tool.

    Any feedback / suggestions?

      Site looks great! Nice and calm. Matches up well with what I imagine the vision of the product to be. I’m sure this is on your radar already but I’d recommend adding a meta description & OG image.

      Other than that I feel its always nice to add somewhere your personal connection to the product, what drove you to build it, Perhaps alongside where you have “Made with <3 by VK” Might help to give that extra edge & connection to either get a signup or ask a question etc..

        Thanks, Russell. Honestly, I missed the meta description and og image. Thanks for the heads up.

        That sounds like a great idea!
