Reflectly vs Stoic

Reflectly is an AI-driven journal and mood tracker for reflecting on daily thoughts and feelings. It offers personalized prompts and questions based on diary entries, while its mood tracker shows correlations, graphs, and daily, weekly, and monthly overviews. Entries can include photos, and listed features include AI summaries and personalized insights. Reflectly says its approach draws on positive psychology, mindfulness, and cognitive behavioral therapy to support self-care. Daily quotes, reminders, a habit tracker, and a home-screen widget provide additional ways to engage with the journal. The app is available on Android and iOS. Its free plan includes free journal features; Reflectly Premium adds unlimited stories in the personal planner, a daily question and reminder, advanced statistics, and actionable insights. A monthly Reflectly Premium plan costs $9.99 a month, and a free trial is offered without a stated length. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. The iPhone app requires iOS 16.0 or later, and the iPad app requires iPadOS 16.0 or later.

Stoic is a mental health journaling app that combines Stoicism with modern psychological science to support self-reflection and well-being. Users can customize morning and evening reflections, respond to prompts that change daily around a weekly theme, and return to guided journals. It tracks moods and influencing factors and offers insights based on entries and activities. Guided meditation and breathing exercises are also included. Premium AI tools can provide personalized prompts, analyze past entries and create reminders based on journaling patterns; these features are optional and require consent. Stoic is available on Android, iOS, macOS and the web, with multiple export formats, media attachments, search, filters and a privacy lock. iCloud sync works across Apple devices, but the iOS and Android apps do not sync with each other. The free plan includes daily prompts, quotes and affirmations, basic guided journals and a limited selection of breathing practices and meditations. The annual plan offers a 7-day Premium trial or a 3-day Premium + AI trial, with one trial activation per Apple ID.
