Janicijevic started the year in Egypt where she reached two semifinals showing in the first two $15k in Giza and Cairo, stopped only by Sapfo Sakellaridi in both tournaments, and a championship win in the $25k in Cairo. This title was followed by another in February, at a $15k in Antalya over Angelica Moratelli. However, she would lose the two consequent tournaments on the Turkish clay, one ending in retirement. She did not play for a few weeks after this before returning to the European ITFs where she found minimum success. Upon her return to Egypt, she found herself in a much better position, immediately going to the final of a $25k, losing to Anastasia Zolotareva.
She received a wildcard entry into the Paris WTA 125 event, losing to Magda Linette in the first round in three sets. In June, Janicijevic won a $25k in Périgueux, defeating top seed Katharina Hobgarski in the final.
Janicijevic made her debut at the Australian Open, where she defeated Jodie Burrage in the final qualifying round, before losing to Kaja Juvan in the main draw first round. However, she entered a period of drought following that feat as she went on a five-match losing streak, before winning a $25k title in Colombia, her first of the year.[]
In May, Janicijevic recorded her first career WTA Tour singles main-draw win in Strasbourg by defeating fellow Frenchwoman Océane Dodin in the first round, before losing to sixth seed Varvara Gracheva in the second round.
In July, Janicijevic made it through to the semifinals at the Grand Est Open 88, with wins over wildcard entrant Amandine Hesse, seventh seed Suzan Lamens and Dalila Jakupović, before her run was ended by third seed Mayar Sherif. Later that month she reached her first WTA Tour singles quarterfinal at the Iași Open after winning two qualifying matches and defeating fellow qualifier Gergana Topalova and wildcard Miriam Bulgaru in the main draw first and second rounds respectively. Janicijevic lost her quarterfinal match to her compatriot Chloé Paquet in three sets. As a result she reached the top 160 in the rankings on 29 July.[]
