As stale as year-old bread.
Plausible Labs really hasn’t done anything with VoodooPad since they purchased it from Gus. The new version does support the iPhone 6 and 6+ screen sizes, but it has visible glitches and most of the UI looks _very_ old. When you create new pages, text shifts around on the page; it just doesn’t look polished.
I guess a good thing is that the app does look more modern than the App Store screen shots. The bad thing is, they’re putting in so little effort, they can’t even update the screen shots in the App Store!
A big hearty :-(

It works, but ...
I used to miss the ability to edit rich text with this, but now I don't really care. Much more important is the absence of anything better than copy and paste for moving material in and out of this app. I do hope that's on the way soon because I am using this app to gather and interlink a bunch of text notes. It works really well for that in conjunction with its big brother on the Mac, which has tagging, etc. Unfortunately, no tags on this iOS version, but it does have a nice search engine.
A post on the developers' website called "Plausible 2.0" makes me hope that this app will start growing. When it first came on the market, it was basically just something barebones for when one had to use an iOS device. But these days it is possible to get a lot of real work done in iOS, and it's time for this app to enter that world, if incrementally.

Needs work
VoodooPad on Mac is great, but it is far from great on iOS. It looks terrible on the recent phones with bigger screens, editing rich text pages causes all formatting to be lost, and the syncing is cumbersome.
For these reasons, instead of using this app, I find it more convenient to email myself edits and add them later on my Mac. That is pretty bad. I am hopeful the new owners will fix the screen resolution support, rich text editing, and let you open documents from anywhere in your Dropbox in a future version. Until then it just won't be very good.

Doesn't sync
I'm really blown away by the fact that this app is such garbage, and perhaps more that the sync bug has gone unfixed for many many months. VoodooPad for desktop is great and the developers are very skilled, so why don't they address the issue?
Unfortunately skilled and reliable do not always come in the package. It is very clear that the Dev does not care about this app, and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Are they still alive?
Since iOS 8 release, most of my rtf files won’t open anymore and sync has become problematic (and actually never worked with dropbox…) I wrote to them few weeks ago and they answered that they were working to fix these issues. Are they? I had to revert my iOS back to 7.1.2 in order to use it (these are my class notes and research) but I’m not sure I will wait much longer. Too bad, this is such a great app (almost flawless on Mac)!

Please Update!
Very disappointing, especially with such a high price tag. Where are the updates? Rich text so my synced notes look the same as on the Mac version. The keyboard has not even been updated to iOS7 yet. Please update the app for those who paid for it guys!
Nothing like it
There is nothing, but nothing, like it. A tour de force. Flexible, powerful, easy, syncs without effort with the desktop (bit expensive but worth it).

Poor compatibility with OSX version
I'd hoped the iOS version would provide an easy way to carry around a copy of the Voodoopad databases I use on my laptop. Unfortunately, compatibility is poor. Rich text displays too small and doesn't seem to be zoomable. Converting to non RTF version also removes all the links!
Please add support for rich text editing
I have been using VoodooPad for ages as a platform to store and add my notes for university, it is a brilliant tool especially and the computer.
only thing is, the ipad/iphone version only supports plain-text editing which really limits its functionality - i cannot edit any of my notes from the ipad because they will loose all images and formatting, it would be so so useful if rich text editing was added, i am having to use other ipad text editors as a substitute and then import them to my computer to add to the full voodoo pad application.
In short, you are really restricting the functionality by not supporting rich text, and it can't be that hard to add, so please can you get on this as soon as possible!! if it did this would be a 5 star review....

A bit disappointed...
I had the mac desktop version, which is great! But now It would be easier to open it on my iPhone, because VP Reader iOS app was not so great… I’m a bit disappointed because I paid $9.99 and if I edit something, it converts it to text… All images, font colors,… are removed and I can’t add it again… Only on the desktop version. This is just a waste of time… This should be a productivity app… Its just a time consuming (frustrating) work app…
Pleas fix this!
