About Gratitude Journal

If you find a bug on your android / phone version, please email me (blissjournal@gmail.com) with a description and the model of phone you are using and I'll fix ASAP.


Bliss increases happiness, motivation and effectiveness with scientifically proven techniques from top researchers.

Psychologists have developed a collection of exercises, or "interventions," which have been proven to increase happiness and other desirable mental traits.

Bliss packages these exercises up for you in one application so that you can easily incorporate them into your life and reap all the benefits from decades of psychological research.

Exercises are scheduled for completion on a recurring schedule — allowing you to build the habit of positive mental transformation.


Bliss works like a daily diary or gratitude journal that allows you to record thoughts and meditation on the previous day. Each journal entry helps you increase mindfulness, find inspiration, and build self-confidence.

Bliss goes beyond self-help and self-improvement to offer writing exercises that have been proven to work in rigorous scientific studies.

As you continue writing notes in your gratitude journal and completing the other exercises you begin to change your outlook to focus on the positive, get more enjoyment from life, and become more effective at everything you do.


Why use Bliss?


*Become Happier* - Bliss rewires your brain for positivity. Over time, as you continue to complete your daily exercises, your mental outlook becomes more positive, you enjoy life more, you find more meaning and satisfaction in your work, you strengthen your relationships and you come closer to being the best possible version of yourself.


*Become more successful* - In The Happiness Advantage, positive psychologist Shawn Anchor details the research showing the crucial role that happiness plays in all aspects of success. Happier brains are more creative, resilient, and even more alert. Where a negative brain sees problems, a happier brain sees possibilities. New avenues to success open up and you find creative solutions to help you reach your goals faster than you ever dreamed possible.

*Become a better parent, spouse, or friend* - Happiness is contagious. When you rewire your brain for positivity and meaning, everyone you encounter benefits. You find yourself reacting more kindly and patiently and learn to help the people you care about most live happier, more fulfilling lives.

*Become more charismatic* - Happier people are viewed as being more likeable, more trustworthy, and more attractive. As you increase your confidence, self-image, and personal power, people are drawn to you. You develop the infectious, optimistic outlook of a leader who always finds a way to lead the group to victory, even in the most dire conditions.

*Find more meaning in your work* - Happiness is not just about "looking on the bright side." It's also about identifying what's important to you and figuring out ways to increase those aspects of your life. When you clarify your values, your life is driven with meaning and purpose.

by Z####:

Used it wonderfully for several months until I updated two days ago and it wiped out all previous entries. Am getting the white screen issue

Q70%
by Q####:

Opens the activity randomly, without user clicking on the app. The upside and downside of this is that you use the app when you don't want to. Mostly, this is an obnoxious downside.

E70%
by E####:

I feel there is too much complaining and negativity in our lives today. This app helps chg your outlook and attitude, by giving the good and poitive parts a chance.

C70%
by C####:

I love the idea behind it however it opens at will so often that I am finding it more frustrating than anything. It would be far more user friendly if I could choose when to use it.

Q70%
by Q####:

This app takes up virtually no space on my phone's storage yet it has so much to offer. I am blown away by how much better I feel and how much my mindset has changed since I started using Bliss. It is designed to develop an attitude of gratitude in it's users and it absolutely works. I am so grateful for this app and I wish to thank the creators for developing such a beautiful and useful app.

I love the way this simple but subtle app works to retrain ones less positive traits. I find doing the short exercises reminds me of all the good and happy things and memories I keep locked up. It has helped to make me much happier. A bit of magic. How sharing good generates goodness.

by C####:

Its a wonderful app n i enjoy it a lot n it makes me happy when i do the exercises. There are certain suggestions i would like to say if you add in update 1. Please increase number of exercises. There should be many reasons to say thanks 2. In some of exercises like three good things plz increase it to at least five 3. Add some more fun exercises

❤This app couldn't be more perfect in my eyes. It's helped me to be positive at a point in life where it's difficult through gratitude. Gratitude is so important in life and the way this app is put together makes for a great way to stay grateful and positive. I love the reminders to record gratitude and how they always seem to come at the perfect time. I definitely recommend it.

F70%
by F####:

I feel like the interface is gracefully simple and intuitive. The various features are like tools I can pick and choose from to tackle things that are important to me - like the nudges it gives me to make use of the gratitude journal. I'm growing to see its a bit of a 'brain hack' in the sense that I'm more inclined to focus and see things from a more positive perspective - which builds on whatever motivation I may have. Honestly, this for me, is just the right app at the right time.

Same issue as many others below. Had the app for a while but now will not load past the logo and left with a white screen. Highly disappointing that this seems to be a common issue yet no fixes. Assuming all data will now be lost. Be wary downloading and using this long term.

D70%
by D####:

Very well designed and very good effort. The section of could have gone wrong also brings about a bit negativity. I know the developer knows better but still thats my opinion and i dont fill that section. This ia one of the best apps i have ever witnessed . Great job.

Been enjoying using this app for months when, a few days ago, it opened and said I needed to create an acct so I wouldn't lose my data. I created an acct and when the app opened, all my data was gone. Will not use again until this is fixed. Emailed the creator, but have received no response. Not happy at all!

Q70%
by Q####:

I was so excited when I found this app, it sounded amazing and an app everyone would benefit from. But after the Bliss logo is shown the screen goes white..... I wanted this app so bad I have downloaded, uninstalled and downloaded it close to 2 dozen times in the past 2 months. I would still love to use the app.b Hope it gets fixed

Q70%
by Q####:

A very nice app that helps me stay positive through relevant exercises that make me focus on the good. There's a small issue where the app puts itself in the foreground whenever I boot my phone. It's rather annoying but I've contacted support about it and hope it will be fixed.

W70%
by W####:

Being reminded to focus on gratitude, good things that happen, and meaning in work and life has already changed my brain and I feel I am happier for it! I love I can set prefered times to be reminded to do it, and that there are different categories to stimulate positive thinking in various areas. Would love to see a category that encourages identifying personal values and acknowledging how it feels to walk them out.

Q70%
by Q####:

This app is aggressive in that it forces onto your screen without any instruction to which means what ever you are about to do will have to wait. Plus- it does not store your writing in a way that you can easily see it which is an important part of writing a gratitude journal. So annoying I have it 1 Star.

Q70%
by Q####:

I am really enjoying this app. It gives me tools to help me slow down and enjoy life instead of just stumbling around through life all sad and worrying about stupid things that are not important. Thank you for giving me something to help me stop and actually smell the roses.

Q70%
by Q####:

I haven't actually used it yet, but I'm writing this because it's been opening itself when I'm in the middle of other programs. This is so off putting that its made me want to uninstall it without giving it a try. I will keep it at least until I open it and see if it will work for me.

This is an awesome app that allows you as an individual to make an effort to check your thoughts and feelings and focus them towards a more positive outlook on life. This positive mindset, energy, and outlook naturally flows into all areas of your life and is experienced and enjoyed by friends, family, coworkers, and any individual you have the pleasure of coming in contact. A great journaling app that has benefits far beyond writing down your thoughts and feelings. Great job to the creators of this app!! Keep up the great work!!

by Q####:

What a great tool to shake off those bad feelings that come with a bad day. This helps me to focus more on the positive things, and to forget the negative things. It makes the negative things seems frivolous. 5 STARS!!

U70%
by U####:

Helpful when it works, nothing bad to say about app content! However, app has an unblissful mind of its own while loading. Will turn on randomly, blank out randomly, turn off randomly. Not the bliss i expected. Developer needs to do some work to prevent random activity.

C70%
by C####:

I came upon this app by accident. It seemed like something positive and what I was definitely needing. I downloaded it but when I opened it the screen when white. I have uninstalled it, reinstalled it, rebooted my phone, cleaned out files, did everything u could think of. Smh it's sad because this app reads as if it would be a positive journey for anyone doing soul searching as I am. Hopefully it will get fixed and in the future I will be able to try it.

by C####:

This is not a typical journal. It provides guidance and exercises to help increase gratitude, happiness, and recognition of others' contributions to your life. I've never been a journal-er, but I may be able to make this a new habit. It's really, very good!

Q70%
by Q####:

Same issue. Was so excited about this app but every time I open it, it does not get past the logo. A blank screen appears and nothing further. Hope this gets fixed.

Q70%
by Q####:

Amazing app. I hope there was a way to upload or attach a photo in the entries and if we could put a lock on the app so no one else can read it as I write really private stuff in the entries. But apart from that. It's an amazing app that changed my life. Thank you developers!

Q70%
by Q####:

It's a good app, nothing fancy. BUT it's been getting spammy lately. I've turned notifications off yet it still somehow pops up every time I reatart without ever being opened.

M70%
by M####:

This great, free app is yet another thing to be grateful for. Keeping a gratitude journal seems to really help my perspective, and this app makes it easy. Like others, I've been having trouble with the app opening on its own. This is a bit annoying, but I'm confident that it will soon be sorted out.

C70%
by C####:

A very simple app, but effective in meeting it's objective i.e. to remind users to take a few minutes out of their busy schedule to show gratitude. Does not hang, not memory intensive. So all in all good

Q70%
by Q####:

I've been struggling with negative thoughts lately, and a friend recommended I start a Gratitude Journal. This app has been perfect for that purpose. It offers multiple writing prompts a very simple interface which makes it easy to get started. I think it's helping my mental health to refresh the "positive" portions of my awareness, which are often neglected in favor of the outstanding problems which demand so much of my attention. Most of my life is good - that's why I'm alive and well. This app is helping me not to take it all for granted.

Q70%
by Q####:

It will fool you and eat your data in the name of positivity. It kept connecting to the internet even though I hadn't even used the app yet. It consumed megabyte after megabyte processing God knows what until I finally figured out which app it was. Nothing says blissful more than a vampiric computer program. The app itself was nothing but a couple of sentences for recommendations on journal entrys in a subject that we all are obviously deficient in. You want to increase your bliss I would start with any of the Dalai Lama's books. "The Art of Happiness" is a modern classic and has put me on a good start to B-ville. I mean, hey, I'm grateful I found the app before it could use my computing power and money anymore without asking. Good luck finding bliss.

Q70%
by Q####:

I've been searching for the best way to keep track of daily events, and since I'm trying to go completely digital (personal, my business, etc), I read up on popular journaling apps. I was SOOOOO excited when I came across this one, because being raised by a hippie, positivity is my bag, baby! BUT... It wont open! Or won't load, rather. Just turns my screen white & although I waited 5 minutes on each of my 3 attempts, it just doesn't want to work! Sad... I'm going to try to uninstall/re-install, so fingers crossed!

Z70%
by Z####:

It's been less than a wk and I'm writing stuff that I've felt but never expressed/could not consciously connect to language before. It's amazing. <3 thank you

Q70%
by Q####:

It's a great app apart from two things...1: it seems to be on some kind of auto start up rather opening when I click on the app icon. There's no way to turn it off so it rather randomly interrupts what I'm doing on other apps. I find it disruptive. 2. Item 1 annoys me so much I feel like I have no other option than to delete this otherwise excellent app but there's no way of transfering your data so if I delete it, I've lost everything. Wrote to the author weeks ago with feedback and asking for help but didn't ever get a response back. Sadly, I'll be losing all my data :-(

N70%
by N####:

I love the convenience of journaling in my phone, rather than owning a bunch of different physical notebooks. Lots of great exercises within the app that really allows you to reflect upon your life and see many things from an entirely new perspective. I'm grateful I discovered this app during a time in my life where I am currently going through many transitions. I would definitely recommend this app to friends and family ❤

Q70%
by Q####:

I am frustrated because so many people had such great things to say about this app and yet mine won't get past the logo. As other people mentioned it just turns into a white screen and stays that way.

Q70%
by Q####:

Simple and effective. These little exercises are straight to the point and really do make you think and sort out your priorities. I'd recommend this app to anyone who feels unlucky and/or stuck in life.

C70%
by C####:

This app is clean, simple and tremendously helpful in implementing a more positive mindset. However, with this latest update I've found that Bliss opens automatically upon restarting my device and it will pop up at times as well.

Read the descriptions and downloaded. Had high hopes for this app; looked like it would be enjoyable and productive. However, canot get it to go. I even uninstalled and did it over. too bad!

I really love this app. It helps me to transform my negative thoughts into positive ones. That's something I struggled with and now with this app, I see good change in my thought patterns and it's great !

Much the same as everyone below, app doesn't load past the logo despite uninstalling and re-installing. Not even had the chance to use it yet and it sounds as if it could be great
