### 5/5 — I love this

*2026-08-19*

This is what I wanted. Sweet and simple. 👍

### 5/5 — 私の使い方

*2026-08-13*

スケジュール表のサブとして、ざっくりした未来の予定に利用しています 数字アイコンは曜日にして利用♡

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2026-08-12*

Excellent app, the headings and folders make it better than the majority of note apps. I hate organising with tags. I use on a daily basis. Watch and Mac apps a real bonus. Very reasonably priced too. Similar apps charge a subscription. 
Only comment I’d make is the name is not too good! It needs ‘Notes’ in it somewhere!

### 5/5 — Indespensible app

*2026-08-01*

This has always been a great little app. It’s super handy to quickly be able to access a whole range of useful little bits of information that you Rely on regularly. The latest update makes it even more powerful with the ability to add images, which is something I’ve been waiting for for sometime - well worth the subscription.

### 5/5 — Very useful little utility

*2026-07-27*

This is a very helpful and high quality app that keeps important information such as notes, codes, passwords etc in accessible locations on your iPhone or Apple Watch. There are myriad uses and it is one of the apps I use the most. 

It was recently updated to include images and files which is a terrific improvement. The developer is helpful and prompt at troubleshooting issues. Highly recommended.

### 4/5 — Great app, but lifetime pricing is outrageous and I’m not paying a sub for a simple note app

*2026-07-27, version 6.0.1*

Please fix lifetime pricing.

### 1/5 — 画像を添付するだけのために年間500円

*2026-07-24*

「レガシー」では使えない機能のアイコンは目障りなので非表示にしてほしい。画像を添付するだけのために年間500円かかるならiOSのメモで十分。サブスクで永久徴収したいならもっと便利な機能を付けるべき。

**Developer response:** フィードバックありがとうございます！ウィジェットからデータが見つからない場合は、アプリの設定に移動し、ウィジェットキャッシュのリセットを選択してください。これは iCloud の問題でもある可能性があります。Adam@overdesigned.netにメールしてください。同期データをリセットする方法をご案内します。ありがとう！

### 5/5 — The best

*2026-07-23, version 6.0*

Best sticky notes app I’ve used yet!! Get it you won’t regret it!!

### 5/5 — Top für schnelle Memos

*2026-07-23*

Superpraktisch für die kleine Notiz zwischendurch, verwende ich täglich. Jetzt mit Ordnern!
