Frequently asked questions

Answers about VISIYA: vision boards, widgets, affirmations, the gratitude journal, your account and VISIYA Plus.

General

What is VISIYA?

VISIYA is a vision board app for iPhone and iPad, with daily affirmations and a gratitude journal built in. You make your board from pictures, notes and stickers, then keep it in front of you every day. With VISIYA Plus, it becomes your wallpaper or a widget that cycles through your pictures.

Is there an Android version?

No. VISIYA is made for iPhone and iPad. Sign in with the same account on both, and your boards, affirmations and journal are there on each one.

Do I need an internet connection?

Yes. VISIYA loads and syncs your content over the internet. If you go offline, the app lets you know, and you can pick up where you left off once you're back online.

I found a bug. Where can I report it?

In the app, go to Profile → "Send feedback". That opens an email with your device and app version already filled in. You can also write to info+support@visiya.app.

How can I suggest a feature?

Go to Profile → "Suggest a feature" and fill in the short form. I read every suggestion myself.

Vision boards

What can I add to my vision board?

Tap "+" on your board. You'll find "Search images" (photos from Unsplash and GIFs from GIPHY), "Photos" from your library, "Camera", "Note", "Link", "Stickers" and "Color". Some sticker packs are part of VISIYA Plus.

How do I move things around on my board?

Touch and hold an item, then drag it where you want it.

How many vision boards can I make for free?

One: your own board or one of the eight free templates. A shared board you join counts as that one, too. You can delete it and start a new one anytime. To keep several boards at once, you need VISIYA Plus.

How do I download or print my vision board?

Open your board, tap "…" and then "Download". The magnifying glass buttons (+ and −) set how many pictures go in each row. Then save, share or print the image. Downloading is free. To put your board on your lock screen, see "How do I make my board my wallpaper?"

What are templates and how do I use them?

A template is a board that's already laid out. Each section stands for a part of your life, like health, money or relationships, and comes with questions to think about and ideas for pictures. You'll find templates in the Boards tab under "Templates". Tap one to see a preview, then tap "Use template". Eight are free: 3 Life Areas, 4 Life Areas, Wheel of Balance Board, Feng Shui Bagua Board, Vision Board for Couples, This Year I Will, Vision Board for Moms and The Twelve Holy Nights. The rest are part of VISIYA Plus. Every template is also a free PDF you can print from visiya.app under Templates.

Can I search for pictures and GIFs?

Yes. "Search images" finds free photos from Unsplash and GIFs from GIPHY without leaving the app. To add your own, use "Photos" or "Camera".

Can I split my board into sections?

Sections come with boards you start from a template. The template has its own, and you can add more with "+". Once a board has three sections, each new one needs VISIYA Plus. A board you start from scratch is one page for your pictures, notes and links.

Can I mark a wish as fulfilled?

Yes. Tap an item, then tap "Mark as fulfilled". The board's card then shows how much has already come true, for example "3/12 fulfilled".

How do I invite someone to my board?

Open your board, tap "…" and then "Invite collaborators". On the "Dream together" screen, tap "Share invitation" to send a link or a code. The code works once and only for a limited time. Your friend taps the link, or enters the code in VISIYA under Profile → "Join a board". After that, every member can add and edit pictures and notes. Only the person who made the board can remove members or delete it.

Does a shared board cost anything?

No. Inviting someone and joining a board are both free. Without VISIYA Plus, a board you join counts as your one free board.

Does VISIYA show the moon phases?

Yes. VISIYA shows the current moon phase, and one tap opens a page with every phase. You can also open the moon calendar in your browser at moon.visiya.app.

Widgets and wallpaper

Which widgets are there?

Two, both for your home screen. The Daily Affirmation widget comes in three sizes. It shows your affirmation of the day and is free. Without Plus, the affirmations come from the six free topics; with VISIYA Plus, from all 40. The Vision Board widget is part of VISIYA Plus and cycles through all the pictures on your board. Without Plus, it shows just the first picture. To see your board on your lock screen, make it your wallpaper.

How do I add a VISIYA widget?

1. On your home screen, touch and hold an empty area until the apps jiggle. 2. Tap Edit at the top, then Add Widget. 3. Search for "VISIYA" and pick Daily Affirmation or Vision Board. 4. Swipe through the sizes and tap Add Widget. 5. Move the widget where you want it, then tap Done. 6. For the Vision Board widget, touch and hold it, tap Edit Widget and pick your board. The Daily Affirmation widget uses the background and font of your affirmations. The app shows you the same steps under Profile → "Set up the widget".

How do I make my board my wallpaper?

Open your board, tap "…" and then "Create wallpaper". Pick a layout, tap a tile to swap its picture, or tap "Shuffle". The preview shows your lock screen and your home screen. Tap "Save" to open the share sheet, then tap "Save Image". Next, open Photos, tap Share on the new image, choose "Use as Wallpaper" and pick Lock Screen, Home Screen or both. The preview is free; saving the wallpaper is part of VISIYA Plus.
