  • Excellent

    Quick, snappy, and works for what it is. Love it for quick notes for later reference on my iPhone and now my iPad. Needs audio and graphics insert but its a quick note app that's all five stars.
  • Best handwriting app for iPhone!

    Hands down the best one out there .. and only a buck!! Very natural response when using a stylus. Perfect for jotting down a quick phone #, shopping list, etc.
  • Love love love it but it would be even better of it would sync with my iPad

    Great app! Just wish I could change the order of notes I write so I can prioritise them.
  • Relief!

    Glad to see this update! Was worried that this was an abandoned project in the US when I tried to find it again in the market.

    Now I have all of my notes I need for my finals again!
  • Can't Update

    The App is great but I can't download the update (12 December 2012). When I click on the update I get a window saying "The App You are trying to buy is no longer available".
  • Makes jotting fun

    This the perfect app for jotting down a quick note. The easy to use handwriting feature with all of its choices makes a dreary note taking session fun! I find it easier to use to gather my thoughts. Then later I have been known to type this info to another one of my apps which has more organizing features as well as syncing. Hopefully one day jot will join the cloud. But I still really enjoy it just the way it is.

  • simple and works

    I tried a few handwriting apps before I bought this one and Jotter is the best in my opinion.
  • Excellent

    Lovely clean and tidy app. I bought it because of the review saying it was good for puzzles. Very handy for sharing a crossword, instead of passing the paper back and forth.
  • Almost perfect handwriting app

    Like many of the other reviewers, this has become my go l-to app for writing down notes, and even keeping a lot of my journal. At least my morning pages/free writing, I do in this app.

    There are some apps that come close, but for various reasons, get no cigar.

    The only reason I don't give this app five stars, is what also many people have mentioned: the lack of being able to put notes together either into one document, or into some kind of notebook or folder. That would make it perfect. If the developers add that, I will give it five stars. It would also be nice if there was some kind of sync function, either iCloud or dropbox.

    But truth is, I could do without that and still give it five stars if I could put things together as more than one page. In any case, if you want a really good handwriting app, this is my favorite (& I own many). The price is right, simple to use, nice UI, does what it says.

    I also like that the simple one page instruction, is written using the app on a document that theoretically if you wanted to, you could either add to or delete or overwrite. That's how simple it is to use, you could actually put all these instructions on one page with a few little notes… And that's what they did: simple, practical and elegant… Just like the app itself.

  • Simple notes, beautiful sketches.

    Jotter was designed to take handwritten notes, but it has such nice ink, I find myself using it for simple sketches more. For notes, you write big in the collapsible input area and it shrinks your writing down to fit a lot of words on a page. Ink comes in five pen sizes, marker or wash and 18 colors. Great for quick sketches.

    + controls are logical and don't take up much screen real estate
    + 18 color buttons, no annoying rainbow picker
    + fast pen response
    + export to Photos, mail, Twitter, Facebook or clipboard
    + notetaking in both landscape and portrait mode
    + note input automatically advances as you write

    - ink is a little soft, could more defined edges
