There used to be a selection of throwback entries from this day in previous years at the top of the app but now there's just one Throwback icon and when I tap it it says there are no entries today. I checked back and I do have entries from this day in previous years, so I'm not sure why it says I don't have any.

I tried enabling the throwback plug-in (it used to just be a toggle setting), but it didn't make any difference.

I used to really like this feature. Please tell me why it has disappeared.

Many thanks

    Danielle_UK Hi Danielle, thank you for reaching out and bringing this to our attention. We apologize for any confusion or inconvenience caused by the changes to the throwback feature. We understand that some entries in the throwback feature can bring up difficult memories or emotions, such as the loss of a loved one or a breakup. In order to address this, we have added a "Hide Throwback" option. This allows users to selectively hide certain posts from appearing in the throwback feature.

    To unhide your throwback entries, please navigate to the "Stories" section in the app. If you're unable to locate the throwback function, you can enable it by going to "Settings" > "Stories" > enable "Throwback."

    Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with. Thank you for your understanding.

        John This is a great step! I like the ability to hide it even if I choose to have it enabled. I don’t know if this is workable, but what about an option when editing an entry “Hide from Throwback?” This way, when I write an entry, I can select the box to allow it to show in Throwbacks or hide it. Especially useful for example, if I jot down notes from a lunch order. I do not need them in Throwbacks, so I can hide either specific entries or tags from showing up in Throwbacks.

            Ultreya Thank you for your suggestion! We appreciate your feedback and will definitely consider adding the feature to hide specific entries or tags from showing up in Throwbacks. Your input helps us improve and tailor Journey to better meet your needs. We'll keep you updated on any developments regarding this feature.
