Great looking note app. Functional. Being able to have a checklist and a note in one note together is a neat feature. I love that IN ADDITION to an option to pay to remove ads, there are also several options to watch ads to remove ads for an extended period of time. After 3 ads worth less than a minute of my time, I received no ads for one month. More apps should have this option, it's great!

This is a great app. Simple. No frills yet super functional and has most of the things Zoho Notes has, notebook/folder creation, easy checklists, security lock features, and so on while being super light weight. Other apps I tried make it very different to format/create normal texts and checklists on the same note and this is easy to do. My helpful feedback is that the developer doesn't have an app rating suggestion in settings or any where and that most likely why this great notes app reviews?

This app is great and has lots of features (I will probably be using it forever) but I do have some suggestions. First of all, I haven't found a way to manually organize notes (dragging them where you want them instead of time / alphabetical) which I would appreciate. Second of all, I haven't found a way to center the text to the middle or the left, and instead it's locked on the right, which I find very annoying. Overall, I 100% reccomend it, but I do really wish it had those features.

This app was literally so perfect for me. It ran smoothly and I wasn't worried all my work would be lost. Until recently. It takes 5-7 business days to type three letters, and it automatically bolds and italicizes everything, even after I undo it. It freezes out of nowhere, and I have to force stop the app. I'm sad I have to stop using this app because of the difficulties it's giving me.

I loved this app so much until recently. It was the perfect tool to help me stay organized. For some reason, any note that I edit now gets moved from its folder into the main folder and if I'm typing something in a longer note, it keeps jumping down to the bottom of the note every few seconds. These two problems have almost ruined the functionality of the app for me, but I love it so much that I will stick it out for a while longer and hope that they can fix them.

I have more than 1 notepad. I like this notepad best. It is easy to use, holds and synchronizes a very large amount of notes, and the search feature almost always finds the note or notes I need to find (this is very important to me). It is also able to copy and paste to and from notes, easily (this is also very important to me). I like it so much I wish all my notepads worked just like it (I would have 3 of them to segregate business, personal, and speciality notes from each other). Thank You!

Absolutely fantastic app, LOVE it!! There's 2 more things I would love to see... More color options for the notes (at least 4 more), and the ability to highlight text in said colors 😄 I noticed with the last update, that when you add one single picture to a note it's position is no longer centered, it's shifted to the left of the screen. Like the text. It's not an issue, I just found it more aesthetically pleasing when it was centered...

I did buy pro version, now issues. 1. Program works better than others. 2. Tool bar keeps vanishing and no way to restore it. Best backup data and reinstall app to get toolbar back. 3. When doing a search for a word it works great to find the word. Then after clicking edit during a search, the app tends to jump around on Long notes. Sometimes I have note hide them self after doing an edit inside a search. So while search finds the word in any document, it's buggy when you edit the note.

I have been using this app for years. All of sudden some of my notes are graying out and not synchronizing or downloading saying text may be outdated. I cannot edit text just copy and paste to another note. Then that new note does the same thing the next day or 2. These are very important notes and I am not sure what the problem could be. To add, I just reinstalled it and SO FAR no problems.

I've been using this app for years. It's very simple to use, no learning curve. Just click the "+" icon, give it a title, then start writing. It's great for your grocery list and your to-do list while you're out running errands because it's quick and easy to retrieve. I also use mine as a running list to add a book title or a TV show that someone tells me about, and other things such as composing a complicated text/email so I can copy/paste it after I've got it right.
