### 3/5 — Okay

*2022-06-04*

I thought each note could be a different color and held in groups by the color header. I was wrong. Only one color per app. Disappointing 🙁. 

Great if you just want simplicity though and a great choice of colors. Love the font size changer too. 🙂

*2019-08-22, version 1.1*

Deleted every note I typed for my new job. Worst app ever!

### 3/5 — Note title

*2019-06-24*

For anyone wondering you can change the title. By clicking its name (New Note is default) and simply changing t eh. me.

### 2/5 — It’s great but it doesn’t always save the notes

*2019-03-31*

I spent an hour and thirty minutes at night writing a short little story in the app. I clicked out of the little note to see my other note to continue working on that one and it delete the whole entirety of that note that took me AN HOUR AND THIRTY MINUTES. But when I created a new note and clicked out of that that new note was still there.

### 1/5 — Не пишет

*2019-02-19*

Скачала нажимаю на ручку или плюс все равно не реагирует и не выходит панель для печатания букв не знаю айпад ли это блокирует или Вы прошу помощи После того как написала Вам панель для печатания букв выскочила зато теперь не видно текста он исчезает вверху шапки)))

### 1/5 — Not saving notes

*2023-09-12*

This app keeps deleting my updated notes.

### 1/5 — I’m about to get rid of this app

*2023-03-20*

Thought this app was gonna be convenient but any notes I write in on my subjects, it kept disappearing. And I couldn’t put in more subjects so I paid for unlimited storage. Still kept deleting my notes. What gives.

### 1/5 — I Don’t understand.......

*2021-11-25*

When I first tried typing in the notes, everything just disappears. I wrote a story that almost took me day, and I figured I would need to continue the next day. So the next day, everything was gone! I was so frustrated!

### 1/5 — Dont waste your money

*2021-07-13*

Doesn’t work well with IPAD Pro 

I give it a 2.5 stars only because of the colors

### 1/5 — I liked it at first….

*2021-06-07*

I was using this app to write stories on it since my regular notes app ran out of storage. I thought this new notes app could be a new place for me to write my stories, so that I don’t have the stupid notification on my phone about the excess storage thing popping up 24/7. So tried this one but when started putting together one of my stories I went back into the app a few minutes ago and all my work was gone. I’m not that bummed cause it wasn’t that much written down anyways but yeah I wouldn’t recommend this app, your notes will just disappear a few minutes later.

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2021-05-05*

It’s so frustrating... The concept is good but has way too many bugs. 8 out of 10 times doesn’t save information. So then what’s the point!!! I’m embarrassed to say I actually paid for the app. Money, time, and information lost. I’m deleting it from my phone.

### 1/5 — Poof! The notes were gone.

*2021-01-04*

I have no idea what happened, but notes I took at a meeting yesterday are now gone.  I titled it, took them, clicked done, even reviewed them later that day and then today...gone.  Previous notes remain, but these inexplicably disappeared.  Not good.
Update....as of today Dec 23,20, this app won’t open anymore.  Not having this issue with any other apps.  Noticed others have said this.  Please get this fixed!
Update as of today Jan 5, 2021 this app still won’t open, thus I have no access to my notes.  Even better, support is not responding.  Not having issues with any other apps and am using an iPhoneX.  Can there at least be some effort to fix this!?

### 1/5 — Won’t open anymore

*2020-12-13*

I loved this app and put all my notes there. However, just this past week it will no longer open and now ALL my notes are lost. When I tap on the app it starts to open but quickly closes. Please don’t put all your notes in one app. Mine are now gone!

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2020-10-25*

Just downloaded the app and when I try to edit my note it scrolls up and out of the screen as the keyboard comes up. How can you edit what you can’t see.

### 1/5 — Es horrible

*2020-10-02, version 1.1*

Is horrible I hate this

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2026-07-27*

It’s so easy to write down notes, passwords, anything. You can also search for things you added to the list which is awesome

### 5/5 — Очень очень подробно от Ромы

*2024-10-27*

Искал хорошие заметки. Не нашел эти. Можно менять цвет легко записывать просто супер!!! Спасибо!😊

### 5/5 — Mixed up cluttered minds THIS IS AWESOME!

*2023-12-21, version 1.1*

I am inveterate writer I write more than I think I write more than I eat. I write more than I sleep I right like I breathe. The downside to that is whilst Apple is absolutely wonderful. It doesn’t offer very good organisational tools so I spend longer looking for the note that I than the actual writing of the note.

Enter this note application, it’s not gonna cost me a tenner a week or £100 a year it’s a one off, tried a little price to pay for an extra filing system. You will not regret it. It’s a gem

### 5/5 — Great!

*2023-06-08, version 1.1*

Excellent

### 5/5 — Wonderful!

*2022-05-13*

I love this improved version of Apple’s basic notepad app. Slightly easier, more secure and more fun to use. Thanks!

This is an actual customer review. I wasn’t compensated for my endorsement.

### 5/5 — tiny, fun, free, & it works

*2022-05-06*

also the random color thing is (chef's kiss)

### 5/5 — Nice

*2021-11-12, version 1.1*

Nice

### 5/5 — Really good

*2021-09-10, version 1.1*

I would definitely recommend this app for anyone

### 5/5 — Handy

*2019-10-08*

Very useful

### 5/5 — Good

*2018-07-27, version 1.1*

This is a good quality app the only correction I have is that everynote should go a different colour
