Frequently asked questions

Still have questions? Contact us

  • What's a Journal Party?

    It's a bunch of us journaling together. Every week we go live on YouTube: we hang out, write for 20 to 30 minutes with music in the background, then share what came up in the chat. You write in your own journal, and what you share is up to you.

  • Wait, I don't write in the app?

    Correct. Journal Party is built for pen-and-paper journalers. We provide the prompts, timers, optional background music and ambient sound, and community. You decide what to share after the session. We are not storing your journal pages or feeding them to AI.

  • Is the mental health guidance vetted?

    Yes. We create our mental health programs with licensed therapists and mental health professionals on our Mental Health Advisory Board. They work on our prompts. They never see what you write.

  • What's a PowerPrompt Program?

    A PowerPrompt Program is a guided session with a series of prompts, a timer, and optional background music or sounds. You follow along on screen and write in your journal.

  • What's included with my subscription?

    Premium includes every program, every Journey, the prompt of the day, Freestyle, livestream replays, and creating and sharing your own PowerPrompt Programs. New programs arrive every week.

  • Can I journal alone or do I have to join a livestream?

    Both. Choose a program to use on your own whenever you have time, or join a live session to write alongside other people. After the writing, you can listen or share an insight if you want to.

  • I'm a therapist / coach. Can I use this with clients?

    Yes. With Premium, you can build custom PowerPrompt Programs with your own prompts and share them with clients. Therapists and coaches already use Journal Party as a between-sessions tool.

  • I make guided journals on KDP/Etsy. Is this for me?

    Absolutely. If you're already writing journal prompts, you can turn them into interactive PowerPrompt Programs on Journal Party, complete with timers, optional ambient audio, and a built-in audience. It is a new way to share what you are already creating.

  • What devices work?

    Journal Party works on any device with a browser: phone, tablet, or computer. Native mobile apps for iOS and Android are also available. Some people prefer the bigger desktop screen, others prop up their phone. Whatever works for you.
