Simply a phenomenal app. I've tried a lot of these little note writers, and this one just hits all the right buttons. It's very simple yet has very clever features that make the app extremely easy to use. Instant Auto save! Luv it, Never have to worry about losing what you've written. Simple yet elegant lined "stationary"! Luv it, Looks like a notepad! Trash Bin feature! Luv it, Never accidentally delete something that can't be recovered. Folders! Luv it, Separate your writings into categories.

I turn off crash report and usage data, close out, and crash report is turned on again when I go back in. If I can't trust the app to keep certain functions off when I tell it to, how am I supposed to trust the devs aren't doing other things I don't want in the background. 2 stars until they prove trustworthy

Cool app. Sadly no binaries possible (images or drawings). Encryption is kind of rudimentary and forces user to encrypt every note separately, instead of creating a database and encrypt all the notes into it. backups should be encrypted so no one can restore your data. Granting microphone permissions still sais that permissions are not granted, in android 13. But it has so much potential. It could be the best note writingapp in store, is just so intuitive and well tought.
