This is a very helpful Reading Journal User guide, without this I would have messed up the setup for editing the pdf file.
This also shows tips for using the pdf platforms for those of us who needed to download one. I used the guide and with information provided managed to find the Xodo app for computer, so now I can edit and more importantly, insert information into the appropriate places.
I'm glad I downloaded this with the journal.
NetGalley needs 1/2 stars, too.

I'm putting the guide at 3.5*.

I'm glad that this user guide exists, as it is very helpful in getting the journal set up and ready to use. Recommended for anyone using the journal as it will make everything much easier.

To preface, I am a physical reading journaler. I've been journaling about books i've read for over 2 years now. I have bullet journaled for 8+ years. However, I am very new to digital journaling. I have an iPad Pro with Apple Pencil but have not utilized it to its full potential because the digital journaling world has been more difficult to learn and navigate.
I really appreciated this User Guide to the NetGalley Digital Reading Journal. It gave step by step instructions for how to import the digital files to my iPad - while also keeping a nice visual aesthetic!
I had some snags with how large the digital journal file is, which made some processes slow - but overall I was successful in importing! I even was able to download the complementary digital journal stickers.
In all, this is an essential tool for the technical aspects of using the Digital Journal. I am excited to get started!

This guide is a must read for NetGalley users who want to utilize the Reading Journal. This guide identifies apps you can use, including Goodnotes and Xodo to upload images, etc. and breaks things down with iPhone versus Android. Thank you NetGalley for all the cool things you do for readers!

This was A very helpful guide to the free reading journal from Netgalley. It's easy to read and navigate.

I think the concept for this journal is great if only I could find a way to use it. I try following this user guide but it does not seem to help much as it refers you to download or access another app. I have accessed the two recommended but I am at a loss with how to integrate the journal into the app. I don’t know if there’s a learning curve or if I’m misunderstanding. At the moment, since I’m terribly behind with posting my reviews, I wanted to post this and hope that I can figure out how to use the journal. Concept is great but I don’t find it user friendly.
