The Journal feature was officially added to Adopt Me! on August 16, 2021, giving players a brand-new way to track and manage their in-game collections. This update introduced a detailed and user-friendly system for organizing everything from pets to accessories.

📖 What Is the Journal?

The Journal acts as a central hub for players to view their collection progress. It includes detailed info such as:

• Pets: Displays adoption dates (pets adopted before August 16, 2021, show this date by default) and previews of Neon and Mega Neon versions—even for pets you don’t yet own.
• Other Categories: Covers items like Food, Gifts, Pet Accessories, Strollers, Toys, and Vehicles, all sorted by rarity.

The Journal button replaced the old Family button in the game’s interface.

📚 How to Use the Journal

• Find the Journal Button: It’s located between the Friends and Dress Up icons on the side of your screen.
• Browse Categories: Click on the Journal to open it, then select the category you want to explore (e.g., Pets, Toys).

This feature helps you track your collection progress and easily spot which items you're missing.

🔄 New Features and Improvements

Since its launch, the Journal has received several updates, including:

• Player Stats: View when you joined Adopt Me!, the number of eggs you’ve hatched, and how many Neon or Mega Neon pets you own.
• Trade History: Show off and review your favorite trades right from your Journal.
• Customization Options: Personalize your Journal with new backgrounds and color settings.

⚠️ Known Issues and Feedback

• Adoption Dates: Pets adopted before August 16, 2021, all show the same date due to missing historical data.
• Sorting Bugs: Some players have experienced issues with sorting features, like filtering pets by their origin.
• Search Glitches: The search bar within the Journal sometimes doesn’t work as expected.

🎨 Community Creativity

The Adopt Me! community has really taken to the Journal feature, using it in creative ways such as:

• Themed Designs: Players create themed Journals for holidays and events like Christmas.
• Feature Suggestions: Some have proposed adding a diary or notepad feature for personal notes and goals.

Overall, the Journal update has made Adopt Me! more engaging and organized. It gives players a fun and structured way to track progress, showcase collections, and share creativity with the community.
