Use it daily

I use it everyday. For the most part, it’s simple and it works. Just like git.

Buggy

I can write a note, then can’t escape from the editor and it doesn’t save anything. The ‘raw editor’ is just a blank page that does nothing. I resent having paid for this.

You pay for the app and it’s still not free

First I have to pay $2.99 for the app, then I still have to pay for features. Worse, you are limited to only one git repository with the „free“ version that you had to pay for.

App isn’t impressive. If I change a file it’s unclear how to see the git diff or see the git log for a file or everything. Can’t make sure I only commit before reviewing the changes.

It’s also has some bugs like when flipping to iCloud as storage. It flips back and the files are no longer visible and git is no longer configured.

App I’ve always dreamt of making

Yeah thanks dude… thanks for stealing my dream! On the other hand, awesome app! I don’t think I could have implemented it any better myself! Thanks for fixing the RSA issue and sorry for the initial bad review. This dev cares about the users!!

Response from developer

Hey. Could you please try again, I released a new version last week with a fix.

Buggy

Pros:
- Love the idea.
Cons:
- Have to pay in-app to unlock all features
- Buggy basic functionality (eg. Notes titles)

GitHub client for $50

6.20 CDN$ just to see the most basic app and $44 minimum for ‘Pro’ with 12 months of updates. They will ‘generously’ let you pay more.

In app purchase busted on restore purchase.

I paid for the app. I paid for the in-app purchase for the pro version. Now when I reinstall the app it doesn’t restore my purchase! This needs to be fixed because that in-app purchase was $35!

Really nice app

Lightweight, nimble app that grants me access to my notes while I’m on the move without access to my laptop.

I use branches and pull requests to manage changes to notes, so the ability to pull changes from one branch and push changes to a branch other than master where I can clean them up before merging would be awesome. I’d go Pro and give a fifth star for that 🙏

Slow loading notes

The app is slow to load links to other notes. It hangs in the middle of the sliding animation while waiting for the next one.

Perfect Fit!

Love the product and exactly what I was looking for!!!!!
