Disappointed

I can understand trying to make money for the hard work and time in building an app, but to limit a new user to five lousy notes doesn’t make the app worth the effort to spend any time to try it out. The app itself looks to have some great stuff and if I could have time to actually work with it, I’d consider the purchase. But given that I can use the recording apps that I already have, and put those files in the Notes app, I will consider hold off at this time.

Excellent Note Abilities

I use my iPhone notes for everything important. It’s the hub for many things. This is a better version of the free iPhone version. I still think the iPhone notes is awesome; but this is another level of the inception... I recommend this highly. Even with having to subscribe.. it’s not expensive and if used at comprehensive capabilities; it’s a new hub of the time.

Excellent for people with visual disabilities

This app is incredibly accessible for visually impaired individuals in terms of all text being large print, being able to bold text and record lectures for classes, being able to highlight in very helpful and bright color schemes with a highlighter, draw pictures and take photos of a white board or chalk board, etc. I love this app it has been so helpful. Thank you Noted!

Great app!

I really like this app - it does what you’d expect it to do!

There main feature that make this app great is the ability to time stamp key points in an audio recording and to tie these to your written notes. You can jump back into the audio later and refine your notes, capture key quotes or listen over important material. Each of these can be tagged.

Of course, the app also does this automatically when you are taking notes - so you can jump back into audio based on what you’ve written. Simply fantastic.

I do a lot of interviews, take notes during these interviews and synthesise insights from these as notes later. This app is the perfect way to do it. A big time saver.

I’d definitely recommend this to people who do a lot of qualitative research (and either transcribe their notes themselves or use audio recordings for note keeping purposes). You can also spit out your time stamped notes to either text or PDF format for qualitative analysis in a dedicated coding package. It’s simply awesome for this kind of work.

No

I really don’t understand this subscription madness. It is a nice app, but not worth 14 bucks a year. I’d rather make a one time payment and then forget about it (and even not use it when I’m done with things for which I can make a good use of the app). This subscription thing remains a burden on my mind. I need to remind myself to cancel the subscription. Or get subscription again at times I need to use the app, which may not be that frequent after all.

Meaningful recordings

I’ve gone on a quest to reduce the number of apps that I have on my phone, and keep only the ones that make sense to me. This app is one that makes sense because it gives context to any recording you take in your life. Rather than having to search through all kinds of recordings from the past and figure out which important topic was said when, Noted makes it easy for you to parse out key bits while keeping entire recordings as back ups.

Fantastic support as well, and app will continue to be part of my workflow. Look forward to future updates!

Doesn't support apple pencil

Seems to work fine doesn't have apple pencil support though which I prefer to write notes in so not for me

Response from developer

Hi, our team has listened to your feedback and released an update with Apple Pencil support last month. Hope you will like it and please let us know if you have any comments at support@notedapp.io. Looking forward to hear from you, Thank you!

Outstanding!

I’ve been using this app for quite long, it got under my radar out of no where, I was looking for an app like this but I didn’t know it existed, but when came across it on App Store, I knew it would be up to my expectations. It’s really a handful app for university students, I do most of my recordings and note taking with it and absolutely love it.

Thoughtful

This is a great app. So easy to use and yet so jam packed with great features! Who would think a simple solution to note-taking could change the way we work or study everyday

Response from developer

Hi Justmie, welcome aboard our journey towards smarter audio note taking and thanks for your great review. We are working on ways to improve the app and add new features. Hope Noted will delight you evermore 😉!

Undo is Too Close to "O" and "P"

Loved this app. Tried it out on a whim and quickly made four recordings and will more than likely buy the full version.

The premise is great - being able to write notes and see the timestamps while you're recording, to be specific. I have yet to explore the full extents of the app, and I'm excited.

However, my only complaint so far is that "undo" is too close to the "O" and "P" keys. And it doesn't just delete one letter; it depends sections. I take short, concise notes that extend to four lines. If I over-extend and press that button accidentally, I lose a significant amount of data. If I didn't develop a habit of capturing screenshots, there's plenty of information I never would have captured.

And it cost money to be able to create more than a handful of notes?

Please fix this. Add a "redo" button if anything. Whatever's easiest. It's a stain on what's otherwise a stellar app.

I won't feel comfortable purchasing the full version until then. 😕
