Dreamboard, track your dreams for Android
I have use it for a couple of weeks now and find it very useful and easy to use. With a notebook takes too long to write down your dreams, here you do it in 15 minutes. I would like that the app had a word-search feature, so you don't have to do it manually. I think this will be not important when you have already used it for a year or more.
I absolutely love this app!! It's so cool and useful. Your able to put a passcode on it and make some dreams private. I use it everyday and love how it analyzes what I'm feeling, using several colors to correspond to what color I'm feeling and allows me share my dream with others. I also love that I can go back to read my dreams again and again. The only thing I'd change though is how when you add a dream, it doesn't appear right away. You need to get out of the app completely and go back in
I've only been using it a few days but it's ok so far. Wish their were more dream options than nightmare, lucid and reccurrent... some dreams are just that. Simply a single, simple dream that is entertaining or enjoyable or a very realistic dream that you don't even know is a dream...and then there are the fantasy dreams...those can be just fun AND strange! Update: Dreamboard lost my email and I had to start over again...I lost two to three weeks of dreams. Very sad. Not deleting though...
This app was really great for the probably two days I was able to use it. I really like that they have a web version as well. Unfortunately I'm having the same problems others are, where when I log in it boots me right back out to the login screen. I really hope this gets fixed cuz this is the perfect dream app otherwise!!!
This app makes it really easy to record my dreams on my phone and edit on the computer later. The ability to add my own custom questions would be awesome. Editing the dream text on a phone can be troublesome because it's hard to scroll the edit window down. Keep up the good work!
This was great until my biggest fear with this type of app happened. It won't let me sign in with my correct details, even after resetting password, and now 5 years of dreams have vanished. Cheers y'all I'll just stick to good old notepad next time.
It is disappointing because when I am not yet done and closed the app with the intention of going back and finishing my entry I find it all gone and I had to do the entry all over again. And also why cant I edit my entries at the lower portion where the questions are? I would have love rating this app 5 stars had not of these glitches. Also it took too long for it load...I am really disappointed...I am going to I install this...I was impressed at the beginning that's why I installed this app..
I realy liked this app, the design is appealing, it tracks all the right things, and it there's a reminder option. But this morning it just signed me out and when I tried to sign back in, it kept saying my username or password were incorrect, even though I know they aren't. fix this please. Thank you in advance.
I find using it to be pretty easy and straight forward but I wish it had more meat to it when you create a new dream. More emotions, dream type options, maybe adding themes or something else like that to help with recall. I find myself writing waaaay more in the description box than I feel I should and by the time I'm halway done it's harder to recall the rest. A little more help with the general description stuff could be useful.
UPDATE: I have dropped two stars from my rating because I can no longer sign in. The app is now completely unusable. Easily the best dream journal app I've ever seen. I'd like more options when logging, especially under moods and dream types, but overall I can't complain.
Just started using it but it's pretty great, just wish there are more type/mood available to choose and options to pick recurring character/place/things. Maybe asking questions about the dream can help also as when I just woke up writing a few sentences could be hard as the dream would be very long and I didn't know how to write everything or how the dream started. But overall it's helpful, I love the design :)
I love the app EXCEPT it keeps logging me out and then won't let me log back in. It will recognize my info, go to my home screen for a second, and then go straight back to the login screen. Please fix this issue as this is the only dream tracking app I've liked and would hate to switch and lose the current dreams I've tracked.
I absolutely love the app. The only thing keeping it from five stars are a few minor issues with having everything on the screen. Lots of things get cut off, especially when there's more then two places. Also, it seems I have a limited number of items, places, and characters? This seems like maybe I have a bug, because I should be able to have as many characters (or places and items) as I want in order to best represent and record my dream. Other than that, the app is wonderful.
Well I really like how Dreamboard is designed. I love the fact that the theme changes with day and night. I do love how sleek it is as well, and how everything is layed out. It's simple and pretty easy to use... but why are there only 3 dream types????? Can't you at least add a "Normal" setting? I never have recurrent dreams, I never have nightmares, and I don't often have Lucid dreams. So what are the uses of those three??? I'd much more benefit from having a setting that is for indicating your normal run of the mill dreams that you usually have. If this is added the review will become 5 stars because I'm really loving it so far!
Easy, simple to use! Keeping track of my dreams has made it easier to remember them! Hopefully, I'll achieve awareness and maybe even lucid dreaming! Knocked off a star because of the lack of options for your dream and the limited things you can enter in the small details.
I really enjoyed it for dream recall in the morning. however, the past couple of days it has logged me. Out and will not allow me to log back in. I've reset the password and evryrhing, but after logging in it tries to load and then goes back to the login in page.
I used to love the app but then it logged me out a bunch. I would forget my password and I would go to recover it through my email and click the link given. This link doesn't work and now I have lost over 10 of my dreams which is devestating. There are also many bugs one is logging me out for no reason and bugging out my typing that is displayed on the home screen. This app needs to be worked on before I use it again.
Some useful features, e.g. locking app, and, within the dream entry form, sections for colour of dream, emotion of dream, characters, places, things. // Suggested improvements: a) difficult to press Delete cross on the characters / places / things. B) UI perhaps could be modernised. C) in a new diary entry, choosing from a drop down list of existing characters, places, things.D) same thing with emotions. E) in analyse, ability to click on e.g. a character and see which dreams they appear in
The app can be a bit buggy sometimes, but works well most of the time. I would like to see a better text field for dreams (bigger field, easily scrollable) as well as auto capitalization for new sentences. Also, moods and colors should be optional as sometimes they are not as apparent or recallable. Please address these issues as we haven't had an update in a while. This has the potential to be a five star app.
First off, I love the user interface because it looks sleek and simple, devoted to the minimalists like me. Secondly, IDK why I have to use wifi just for me to record my dreams. For me, I find it an inconvenience. Thirdly, I can't add more people because it's limited to 3. Lastly, I can't read all my dreams. Suggestions: Remove or limit the colors, and while typing the dream, it's better for the user to have an overview of his/her dream. I will add 2 stars if you do these!
I think we need a fix for the summary and things/characters part. It's buggy and I can't delete a thing unless I save and edit them again. Also sometimes the (+) button doesn't work and just gone. Nonetheless its done a nice job keeping my dreams.
I haven't used the app for long, but it looks like a good dream journal. Very nicely designed. I was annoyed that I needed a photo to sign up, though. Just a couple thoughts: - I love that the app tracks who you are in the dream, but in some dreams that changes. Maybe have the option to add another role, or something? - It would be nice to have more dream types to pick from, including "vague" or something for when you only remember bits and pieces. - Customizable tags would be nice. - When viewing dreams, having the edit button at the top seems more intuitive. - I'm not sure why it tracks the time, since you can only make an entry after the fact. - I'd like the colours to be optional. I don't have much use for them. - I'd like to be able to add more than two places to a dream.
I just added my first dream. I like all the features. I did experience one problem though. My phone auto corrected bear to best and I didn't catch it till after I saved it. Now I can't delete it. I click the x and all over the one tab. I would have given 5 stars if this was a one time thing after having the app for a while. Otherwise it is, so far, 5 stars.
Excellent easy to use. Intuitive interface. Well organized. Helps one to focus on recurrent themes rather than getting distracted by details. Would be nice if emotion buttons had a more varied selection but you can add your own. Which is what I do. I heard about this app on the Mysterious Universe podcast. Overall cool app that is a must have for Dream Travelers!
But I think it would be a lot better if you could take voice notes instead of typing when recording your dream. Just being able to speak instead of stopping and thinking every few seconds would be cool. Having both functions there would make this app perfect
I love this dream journal - the layout is intuitive and I really like the sections (characters, colours, places, things). I would love it if there was a way to make characters (and places/things) saved so that you could pick recurring people/places/things from a drop down menu. I would happily pay for a feature to chart the people/places/things that recur frequently. Overall, this is a magnificent app and I highly recommend it - just by physically entering my dreams, I gain insight into my own subconscious.
The concept is great, and to a degree they do a pretty good job. The interface doesn't really good, but that's just my opinion. (I suggest updating to the Material Design standard). My biggest problem is that I can't delete my account or change my password.
I like this a lot, its simple, clean and easy to use. Although I wish there were more "types" of dreams instead of just reoccurring, neutral, and lucid. Also I think you could somehow combine "moods" and "emotions" together cause they're almost the same thing.
When trying to set up an account i have for the last 2 days gotten connection closed before contact errors every time i try. And no my internet connection is not faulty.
I love this app. As someone who frequently interprets my dreams this app has been very beneficial in remembering and tracking my dreams. Just a couple improvements that would make it even better. First off while I love the ability to take note of colors I do not like being required to do so. Also I would love if the app would keep track of how many times I use certain emotions or tags so I can see what symbols are popping up in my dreams the most. Overall a great app.
It could use some improvements. It has a glitch where it doesnt show the most used tags like its supposed to. It hasnt actually updated them in awhile. The color board is a mess. It puts them all over the place to show size. I just wish it would put in order my tags from most used to least used. If its supposed to do that then its broken. Because it doesnt. Other than that a great app. I love the customization. And the remind tool is very helpful. I definatly reccomend this app. I just hope it gets fixed.
I like it but I can't add as many Places/Things/Characters as I'd like. When I try to X them they do not erase. The biggest issue I had is that the program closed out while I was concluding a very long description of a dream. I had to grab a pen and pad really fast to get out the info while I remembered it, which defeats the purpose of the app sort of ...
I heard about this app on the LUCID SAGE podcast. I have tried a few apps and have not liked any as much as this one. The journal includes enough detail yet not an overwhelming amount. Hope that this works out in the long run!
I've always wanted to keep a dream book but I kept procrastinating due to laziness and stuff so it never happened. I just came to know about this app and I love it because I've started typing down my dreams first thing in the morning. Thank you for this!
Love this app so much . Always have wanted to keep a dream journal and this seems the easiest way . Only thing that annoys me is that every now and then whilst I'm writing the story of my dream it just shuts down and I lose the info on the dream I'm writing about and then have to try and write it all again. This may be a problem with my phone though and not the app.
When I try to sign up it says "internal server error". I redownloaded it and it still wouldn't work. I'm on wifi. It seems like a good app but it wouldn't work for me. Hopefully you fix this. I would use it if I could actually sign up
For the section where I have to write my dreams. It's so uncomfortable. Please. Can you add it? Second why we can't send our dreams in a PDf or Microsoft file to our email? Is there any way to save them in a store?
I hope this service never shuts down because I'd be really upset if I like I lost all my logs. An export feature would be handy. It makes me nervous that it hasn't been updated since 2014...
Have trouble saving dreams and can't delete/edit some. Also there need to be more options for emotions. Bottom line - I'm waking up in the middle of night go record and lose sleep when difficult to record. I'll adjust rating if improvements made.

It was very good for the first month I had it installed, and was very useful for dream categorization and recall. My only comments during that time would have been a request for a few more dream type options, and that sometimes the app got a little buggy if the text of a dream was two long. However, around 2 weeks ago, the app completely broke and will no longer allow me to sign in at all, neither through Facebook nor using an email address. I would love to see this fixed, as it is a useful app that I enjoy.
