East to Use To anyone complaining you can't log in- of course not! LJ doesnt allow 2 instances of logins, so log out on your PC before trying it. That said- this is extremely easy to use, intuitive, and enjoyable. I only will be using it for posts on the go, so I won't comment on much else.

LJ was my first love... I got past and stopped using my livejournal when facebook and all the others became the newest, latest, greatest.... but I honestly miss it and wish I had never left!!! I'm hoping to restart my account and make it so much better that maybe I can convince friends to help me bring it back to popularity within our crew! We wrote so more personally and it wasn't the same as this free character "thought" mess.... we used ours too talk about LIFE; In more depth than allotted by Facebook; I'm bringing it back!!

Pauline Nicole de la Pena

Great for updating on-the-go I love that the LJ app is well-designed. Pictures don't take long to load; i can update even if i'm away from the pc. I just noticed a minor bug: when the word "figure" appears in entries it's displayed as "div" instead. What's up with that?

Gesso been using Android for journal ..2yrs...and got hacked by way of simple charity... but lost all when had to factory reset. Inc plcs of oldest son who was killed in 2007.. Thank you. ..hey is it with expandable space.... I'm finally editing journal since 8th grade 72.... and phone is just soooo handy.. . I love you already. I'll get back to you when further along..for your review. But plz read it b4 .....I rated u over the top just cause.... don't let me get NEEDY. .. THANKS

Mia Williams

Seriously Buggin' Started to not show any entries, just a constant loading icon. I went ahead and uninstalled and reinstalled thinking that would solve the issue. Now as I tried to log in, I'm getting the constant loading icon again and not even able to log in at this point. Please fix this before I go back to a different LJ app. Thanks!

Reasonable, but could be better I do lots of food blogging. I like to take pictures on my phone, so a reasonable LJ app is important. For writing blog posts, this app is reasonable. I cannot seem to add photos from the SD card, but I created an album on internal memory, and that works. However, recently I stopped being able to read my own posts. This used to work, but now the app crashes. I suspect that LJ changed something and the app needs an update.

Needs major work Easy to update and read friends pages. Have my journal set to friends only, months after using app I realize it isnt using my set up prefrences so they are all public posts. Also wont let me into my journal to see my posts so I can't fix this. Crashes every time :( And it should have a way to notify you if someone comments or replies.

Gothlish June 4, 2016

Despite the comments I was really hoping this would work but it turns out that it won't really let me do anything and everytime i try to post something it says 'invalid user' and exit's from where i was writing. Read comments and still thought i should give it a try.. Disappointment, indeed.

Susanna Faulds March 28, 2015

So Inconvenient no option to find a specific post in archive/calendar? I'm meant to scroll back through years of posts without any kind of date filtering system? get out. Fix this immediately.

Валерий Котенко September 10, 2016

Fix bugs? Haha. Fire your testers, anyway. When I tapped on my name, I received "Unfortunately, app is stopped". In browser this action reditects to creating new journal. How I can get my settings and journals? Kids write apps better

Laura Wilson-Anderson September 9, 2016

Crashes constantly now EDIT 9-9-16 The app crashes every time I try to view my own posts. I can view friends posts and post new posts, but I can't see my past posts or know if there were any comments. This makes the app functionally useless for me.

Pam Corbishley March 2, 2016

Useless... won't even work anymore My Google keyboard with the swype ability activated doesn't work in this app. Extremely annoying. Update as of 3/2/16 -- this app is useless, it won't even let you log in anymore. Every time I try, the app crashes. Uninstalled and am using the mobile site.

Kaitlyn Hanks May 1, 2015

Horrible I don't understand how LiveJournal has existed for this long and has an app this horrible. My auto correct on my phone doesn't work for entries, sometimes I can't sign in for no reason, interface is confusing, etc. I have to write my entries in a note pad and then paste it into the journal entry field. The best part is that there are no viable alternatives so I have to keep using this. Thanks.

Nickoli Wilde November 17, 2014

Messes with keyboard Reading on this app is fine, but writing comments and entries is a pain, because it messes with the keyboard somehow. I've tried using both the built in Xperia keyboard and the Google keyboard, both work fine in all other apps, but when typing in this, double space for period doesn't work, autocorrect doesn't work, swiping doesn't work at all on the Xperia keyboard, and works but doesn't add spaces between words on the Google keyboard. It also sometimes tries to capitalise the first letter of every word.

Mayu September 7, 2016

meh. it keeps on crashing. and so far everything is meh. i wish you'd improve on the options some more as I can't even go to a community and add them to a group inside the app. I have to manually do it on my laptop instead. some more fixing and everything would be better.

Valeri Puchkov January 19, 2016

Awful bug - comments When typing comments or making a post every word starts from capital letter automatically. So i have to press shift twice after entering every word. Not happening in other applications. Sony xperia z3

November 23, 2014

The update messes with the keyboard - the autocorrect doesn't work. Also, I have the old icon still on my phone, but when I try to open it it tells me to update. If I uninstall it, it uninstalls the new updated version as well. Very buggy.

Ais Radzuan December 15, 2016

add change date feature It's a great app. Flawless posting and good at uploading images. If they add in the option to change the date of the post in the app so that I don't have to go onto my browser and manually change it there, it'd be perfect.

Rose Wu December 8, 2014

Fix this please Nothing is appearing in my feeds for days but i know there arenew feeds bc the notif button says 500+!! But even in my inbox nothing is showing? What's wrong with lj ugh!!

ava turnsplenty September 29, 2015

I haven't even had this app installed for more than an hour and already its getting on my nerves. I just tried to enter a post and every time I hit done it says account not validated. WHY?! I was able to log in but I can't post anything?!

Shi Ikeda September 23, 2015

Fix it I loved this app until I can't log into my account. I thought I loss password. Even reset function doesn't work. I can't log in username & password correct I can't log in through browser not app. Please fix problem. It was working a day ago for me. Very disappointed.

Hildeaux R July 6, 2015

This app is completely unusable. It refuses to recognize my keyboard correctly, so autocorrect/autopredict functions do not work at all. Pictures cannot be uploaded either (attempts are met with a 'file not found' error). The mobile site isn't a good alternative because it won't allow photo uploading either. Very frustrating now that I'm being forced to ditch Facebook and come back to my much-beloved LJ.

Lidia Gribanova June 21, 2015

Good, but couple VERY annoying bugs Generally big improvement on interface from previous app, but a couple of things make it almost unusable and are very frustrating : 1) no way to set posts to default "only me" 2) autocorrect and swiping do not work in the post field, typing is a torture. Strangely it works at any other fields but the one where it is most critical

Ilse Hattingh May 15, 2016

This app crashes all ths time. It's a huge waste of time. You're better off just using the web version. It doesn't bring anything tjat you don't have on the desktop version. Don't bother with it.

Ammi Pineda May 14, 2016

App stops whenever I try to access a friend's profile. I can only read entries when they are on the friend's page, but when I try to tap on the user to check their profile, the app just stops. Also, I only see comments and messages directly sent to me. I cannot see comments on my posts in the community. It would be much better if we get a notification every time we receive comments and messages without actually opening the app. I like the app, but it needs more improvement.

sara faust June 19, 2015

hard to use doesn't enable swype, text prediction, autocorrect, or anything other than the most barebones keyboard function. it's hard to quickly figure out how to authenticate your account, so your post you laboriously typed out without any swype or any other normal keyboard functions like text prediction or autocorrect is lost.

December 7, 2014

Good BUT user pics choice missing For me without WiFi/ broadband this app has been a godsend.No more losing my post,place or the writing of the post jumbled up.Simple straightforward I can post easily & upload photos easily too.But & this is a major issue for me,you can't use,choose or add user pics & as I have over 140 user pics that I very much want to use this is deeply annoying as I feel it is an integral part of LJ, something that very much keeps it above Facebook & Twitter. User pics express much better how I feel. Please FIX this!

Denis Gordo January 13, 2016

Unable to login / Невозможно авторизоваться When entered username and password the login icon is rotating nonstop and nothing happens. Logged in through mobile browser no problem | Когда вожу имя пользователя и пароль, иконка Loading вращается бесконечно и ничего не происходит. Через мобильный браузер зашел без проблем.

Catherine Churchward November 19, 2015

Pretty good, pretty major flaws Overall, this is quite a good journaling app, or it would be, but there's a few major flaws that ruin it. Not correctly acknowledging keyboards and predictive text makes the app almost unusable (I write my entries in Google Keep then paste them into the app because it's still better than using the website on my phone). And not letting me select any of my user icons except the default makes me wonder why I paid for extra ones (permanent account holder). Could be great, isn't.

Jali Hicks January 15, 2016

Log in fail I can't even log in. It just hangs on the log in screen. Yet I can log in if I open it in my browser.. just not through the app. Which completely defeats the object of having the app! Samsung galaxy note 3.

Niranjan Krishnamurthy May 2, 2016

Both the website and the app are great. I've used them for nearly a year now. However, I don't understand why spell checker and keyboards are disabled. It takes quite a lot of time to type it out when you are on the smart phone. I hope you enable keyboards and spell checkers because it's cumbersome otherwise.

Jennifer Randall October 2, 2016

Keyboard use is lacking Doesn't allow suggestions from your normal keyboard. Also doesn't automatically capitalize "I." Overall it's okay for quick updates or for something that you'd really love to update while on the go.

M J January 8, 2015

Works, but not very well I have to write in a different app and paste into this due to keyboard issues on the app. Also photos will not post in the app. I find reading my friends list is better through chrome than through the app.

Ravi Turman July 9, 2016

I would give it more stars IF I used to love Live Journal. I decided to start using it again, so I downloaded it. The picture that they are using here is deceptive. It makes you THINK you can add pictures to your journal. I thought this would be so cool. But when I tried, I kept getting error messages. So I contacted the developer. They responded back stating that the app is no longer supported and that I could go online to add pictures. Well, why not change the picture in Google Play and take out the option in the app?

rem n October 19, 2016

It's decent but unfortunately- I cannot search up accounts! I try to search up accounts on the app using the search feature, so I can read their journals, but then it freezes after clicking on their name, and I am given a black screen and a Submit Error Report box afterwards :( would love to give more info if needed.

bri c August 29, 2015

This looked interesting Until I signed up... from the app I can't change anything info wise on my profile, when I tried to change my pic on internet it cut the pic to the top corner of the photo: / not happy with this, a waste of my time

Greg Grant April 12, 2015

Needs work Needs the ability to be the default app for LiveJournal links from other apps. This is essential. Additionally, needs more text customization options. Lost 2 more stars for sitting on your thumbs doing nothing for months.

L Montejano March 30, 2016

Incessantly closes out I can't go past the first page it opens up to, it just closes down as soon as I click anything else. I've uninstalled and reset, but the issue is the same.

Herlan Zendy December 10, 2014

What is wrong with this app?! I have a working internet connection but still cannot load my feeds anymore! x(

yarrow kat December 20, 2016

stalls when loading friends' journals stopped working after a few months. no search function, and when you click someone's name to go to their journal, it simply stops working. aside from that, it's straightforward enough. too simple to work right, apparently.
