  • Works great. Worth the money!

    I’ve had the Speed Text app on my iPad since 2010. I use it daily when I’m away to send sales orders into my company. It has worked well until my recent purchase of the new iPad Pro 11. When I used Speed Text with the newest version of the iPad the app crashed. I was happy to find the same app available that works with the new iPad in the App Store. It was only $1.99. I highly recommend it. It’s worth the money.

  • Simple, easy, smooth app

    I use this app all the time to take notes. Very smooth interface. You can customize the height of writing area, space between words, wait time, etc.

    In order to change settings, tap the square with an arrow at the bottom left corner of the screen. Select settings. It is not that regular wheel icon. So some people might not have noticed it.

  • Nice app, but needs better documentation

    I was using it right after I downloaded the app. The portrait mode is very helpful. But the program is lacking in documentation. Still trying to figure out how to jump from page to page.

    This is going to be real useful with the mail feature to send to Evernote.
  • great app

    its a great app...my only criticism is that its hard to organize the files...its easier to organize if there is folder function
  • Not too bad...

    In my office, I take constant notes, which can stack up on my desk making it hard to find what I need. And there are plenty of times where work calls me out of my office, and instead of dragging a stack of notes around, I have it all organized.

    I bought a stylus for my iphone a long time ago (which I recommend doing) so i don't have that problem with the lack of room to write.

    But I will say that it makes your handwriting look a little shotty, but not so bad to where you can't read it...unless you can't read your own handwriting to begin with. Overall, I'm impressed. I look forward to seeing more updates.

  • Outstanding App

    I love this app and can't wait for a dedicated iPad version as well. (Hint Hint)
    It's great for dashing off quick notes like drink orders or restaurant orders.
    It also allows you to send to EVERNOTE.
    Worth every cent.

  • Simpler than Dan Bricklin's

    Pretty nice for quick note - would love option to send via MMS...
  • Very Good

    Thats what I looking for !!
  • Very nice!

    Fewer features than programs like FastFinga but easier to use and more elegant. Better ink quality. The list view is legible. Could use pinch-to-zoom and more ink colors, and it'd be perfect.
  • Really nice update, but problems scrolling (for me)

    I _really_ like this update. It is, nearly, what I'd like as an ink note supplement for Evernote. You can input your Evernote credentials, and then you can very easily and quickly export a highly legible version of your SpeedText ink note into Evernote, which looks lovely in Evernote (and, I think, can be parsed by Evernote so you can search your fulltext--though Evernote does a terrible job with my scrawly handwriting).

    Its interface is nicer, IMHO, than TanzakuPad, and its exported text is much more legible (again for me) than the text from Dan Bricklin's (very innovative and very nice) Note Taker or TanzakuPad.

    However, there seems to be a bug with the scrolling, at least on my iPod Touch 3.x: sometimes I'll seem to reach the end of the "pad," and just grey space will show below the input pad. If I continue to enter text and export the image, that text shows up on the exported image (but not on the SpeedText screen). This happens at various lengths of "pad," and it's not quite clear to me what's happening. On the plus side, you don't lose any text with this bug. On the down side, though, it is distracting to try to enter text "blind."

    Overall, though, in my view, if you like to take ink notes and use Evernote, you really should give this program a try. It is the best of the bunch right now, IMHO.
