Yeah this is the biggest ick for me. I find the prompts cringey or downright asinine. This trend of coaching/prompting entries in various services/apps is very off-putting. Like advertisements and propaganda telling you want to think and buy werent enough, now people need to be coached about what to think about for a journal entry? Truly people are getting dumber, and Apple increasingly treating consumers as dumb as the lowest rung. Not a good long term outlook.

Have you ever bought a physical journal? Journal prompts that you can choose to use or not are extremely common in physical journals. This isn’t anything different.
