App was ok, but it’s a scam.

I actually thought the app was useful. The fonts would change when you use the widget, but I just dealt with it and didn’t pay much mine to it. The problem actually is the purchase of the life time deal. So I bought it like 10 months ago and had no issues with ads or anything. Suddenly, it asked me to buy the app again and the ads started popping up again. Needless to say, I emailed the developers asking them to restore my purchase and access with no ads. No answer. I looked at some of the reviews and apparently others have experienced the same problem. DO NOT BUY OR USE THIS APP. I already deleted it and said screw it.

Kind of unreliable

When I tap the home screen widget because I want to edit the sticky note, it's a gamble whether it lets me do what I want to do, or just erases the contents of the note! So that's less than ideal. Not sure why this is happening but it makes it difficult to rely on the app.

You overpriced.

10$ monthly for a sticky note app.

What a joke.

No, the fact there’s a 20$ one time purchase doesn’t justify it.

The App lost all my notes

Enough said. Don’t buy it.

Was good until incident

Had the widget on my home screen that kept all my quick notes Id make of things to do.

Randomly one day it was all erased! With no way to restore it! Please do better so this is avoided and to be able to restore the notes!!

It’s a scam

I’ve paid for the app several times (and the $ came out of my account) but I have not been able to use the full functionality AND it keep prompting me to pay. I’ve tried several times to email the app developers but the email bounces back saying the email is not valid. DO NOT GET THIS APP!

It works but looks bad on the widget

It works - you can use it to put a note on your screen - but for some reason when it transfers from the “you creating the note” portion to it showing up on your screen in widget form it turns into a serif font and the color changes hue and saturation. I don’t know why and it looks bad.

Bottom Line: Not Worth It

Buckle in kiddos, it’s story time. I’ve been looking for a sticky note / note taking app that supports widget functionality for my phone for a while. I’ve found quite a few I find aesthetically pleasing, but none that offered me a variation of text formats and colors. With the way I use notes, these variations are incredibly important to me.

So important, in fact, that when I read this app offers “multiple note themes” as well as variations for text format, I spent $20 for the premium version for a lifetime.

I don’t usually commit that readily to something if I don’t feel like it’s on the right track.

Don’t get me wrong, this app’s a great idea and it’s well on its way to being an amazing tool for everyone out there, like me, who wants a little more organization in their personal device.

If you’re looking for functionality over aesthetic, this may just be the perfect app for you. I really do appreciate the different headings available, the bulleted lists, and the RGB text color options.

But this app is ugly as a widget, hands down. I had no idea when I downloaded, and paid $20, for it that it’d look so awful on my home screen. The widget has a thick border that pulls its color from your phone’s mode — light or dark. It took me a while to figure that out, because it wasn’t listed anywhere in the settings of the app or the FAQ on the site.

The notes themselves only have 4 options for background colors and they’re all pretty garish. They may look relatively pleasant when in the editor, but as soon as you’re on your home screen, it’s like a completely different hue.

“Themes” would suggest multiple different styles of backgrounds and borders, would it not? Maybe that’s just me.

I’m highly disappointed in this app. I also seriously regret spending $20 on it. Granted, that’s a steep price for any app that’s not a 5-star rated functional tool, but I guess I had hope it would be worth it in the end.

Unless these “premium features” described in the popup window when you first open the app are actually created and available to premium members / app owners like myself, it’s not worth it. It’s definitely not worth $20. $3, maybe.

I can’t begin to imagine what this app would function like in ‘free’ mode. I have no idea what the premium features are in this app. The ones that were listed as the selling point for the subscriptions aren’t there at all.

Too bad. I was really excited to finally have an app that’d work the way I needed it to. This isn’t it.

If you’re getting this app, think carefully over what you want it for. If, after all this, it still sounds like a winner to you, go for it! But I would advise against spending anything more than $2 on it. If after this review you’ve decided against it, good job. You did what I wish I could: You got out before it was too late.

Fix this, developers. Fix your app, which is a sham and will live covered in dust on my phone until it’s no longer an eyesore. Fix your site, which is poorly designed (and frankly I believe not meant for user interface). If need be, find a new team of UX UI developers. Do something. Otherwise, this is the rip off of the century.

Have a nice day.

Not free

False advertising, it’s not free

Buggy

Difficult to use, formatting is all over the place, and half the time changes to notes don’t show in the widget. Very confusing app.
