Quick Draft User Reviews

Simple and clean design.

I like the convenience of having a notepad easily accessible from my Mac’s menu bar. I just wish there was an additional page and Bullet Point options. Please add these features.

Great but one request!

I desperately wish this had an Apple Watch app. The swipe keyboard has gotten good enough that Quick Draft would be *perfect* for jotting down quick notes, ideas, and information so they’re available to move to the appropriate place when I’m back on my Mac or iDevice.

So far I haven’t found an alternative, and I’m sure I’m not the only one who would appreciate it.

Great but….

Wish it had a widget option. Another app like this does and it just seems to improve the experience and simplicity of the app.

Hansey12 – it's been a while but the latest version now supports widgets.

Almost perfect!

Love the functionality and minimalistic simplicity of the app. The only thing I'm missing would be widgets to see at least part of the note, and to allow quick opening from it. I wouldn't mind a few more options of icons in the Mac version for the menubar as well. Well worth the money.

Hi craytonc thanks for the feedback, it's been a while but Quick Draft on iOS supports widgets now.

Great idea, but crashes frequently

Great, but only 1 draft

It works well and syncs fine. It puts a small icon on the Manu Bar on your Mac where you can just click and write whatever you need. On the iPhone, the app opens to the draft. My only complaint is that it should allow you to have more than one draft. Maybe 5 an no more. If you need more it's a note that should go into the Notes app, but for small, quick stuff we do need a few more.

Nice Simple App

I like the simplicity of the app. Although I like it, I do not see the reason to use this over IA Writer if you own that app. The look and feel of this app is very close to IA Writer. The main difference between the two is Qd has an icon in the menu bar and IA Writer does not. I am not knockng down this app but rather just noting some observations. If you don't own IA Writer then I recommend this app. Support the developer because they did a good job.

Great app, but crashing on iOS 15

Been using the app for quite a while on iPhone and Mac and has been flawless. However, since iOS 15 update the app crashes periodically, specifically it seems when synching iCloud changes.

Hi, sorry to hear that! New updates, long overdue, should fix this.

Does exactly what it needs to

Drops you straight into a page with the keyboard ready to jot down quick notes to come back to later. It works, and it works well.

Amost perfect, needs a search feature.

Took a quicklook at the app. Looks promising, however, there's no find/search feature. I think with the search feature it would be perfectly priced.

Hey Fredster, thanks for the feedback and for pointing out that the site was down – just got that back up and running.
