Flashcards

If you like flashcards then yeah use this, but Im just using this to put my paper writing into one spot and it kinda sucks, the photos are bad and I can barely read what on the paper.

Serious Lags

Does not let me export notes

Very blurry

Scanned my notes and the images are all blurry

Faulty

Scanning feature doesn’t work. Camera feature is also faulty; while it will take a photo of a document, even if you crop it and line up the lines to the page edges, the final document is still cropped and details are cut out. No offense but I feel like this app wasn’t put through enough testing/troubleshooting.

Awful

I was really hoping this app would be good. I should’ve known from the reviews it wouldn’t be. I wanted to use it to keep my work notes on my phone so I didn’t have to pack a notebook around, but you can hardly see the scan on a phone. Even with clear, neat writing it’s next to impossible to read. I used flash like it recommended and everything. You can’t zoom and the words were blurry.

Won’t scan

Downloaded and tried scanning some sheets and would not scan. Frustrated! Couldn’t get past the first step…scanning.

Keeps crashing

I was really excited to use this. Everything loaded just fine, but as soon as I went to scan anything the app crashed. I’ve tried about 6 times and I’m not going to waste any more valuable study time trying. I won’t buy the note books again either since I only bought it to use with the app. Summary: don’t waste your money or time.

Disappointing

I really wanted this to be what it advertised. However, the page is cut off on the right, Google Drive integration is horrible, and the app glitches when I try to “share pdf”.

This five star app, gets a one star for me!

Doodoo feces is what this app should be called

Let down.

Its cool for organizing but you cant zoom in and it keeps deleting my notes at random.

😪

Well, it’s not bad and all but what I would like them to put as a feature where they could take all your bad writings and then just put them into a document or something like just write them and I would like them to then, with that writing in notes that you already took in your notebook, I wish they could transform them into quizzes so you could practice practice

Awful

I can’t scan anything. The app immediately crashes after a few seconds of me opening it. Tried it on different devices and it just doesn’t work.

Why

I wanted to like it so much cause I would take pictures of my notes and it takes the picture quickly but it’s cropped so small and I can’t zoom in on them..no point in highlighting on the app, I might as well just do it in the notebook. And there’s a glare when I take a picture of the page. I’ll just stick to my normal notes and flash cards

Please make the scanner work

Scanning does not work

Why this new update made everything worse

firstly, there are so many features either missing or removed, especially like dragging folders or zooming in on things. also, the app is literally one of the slowest pieces of software i’ve ever used. like wth why does it take 3 minutes to load 30 flashcards. like come on 5 star😭 please work on making ur app bearable for people and work on actually needed features, rather than over complicating everything🫩

Don’t do it

Just installed and uninstalled in less than 10 mins. Soon as I open it it’s beat my expectations,however it crashes as soon as I touch something.

As bad as school itself

I’ve been using this app for around half my school year and I can say this is not it. First of all, the “Notes” are saved in horrible quality and you can’t zoom in. If you want to take a note in Camera Mode, cropping it is an insane struggle, and so is even looking at the Note when you’ve done it, as it lags horribly when you first try. The Flashcards and the search bar are literally the only features that work decently. Lastly, I don’t like the home menu, it’s too unappealing and you can just use the bottom menu to navigate.

If you want a good studying experience, just don’t use this app. You can easily live without this, as you can save your notes in your Photos app, dates on the Calendar app, and if you need flashcards, just use another app. Thanks.

Used to be fairly good

With the newest update I’m finding that adjusting the order of my notecards is so far impossible. The images I insert no longer fit the “card”, and when you’re in study mode even less of that image shows up. This is a huge decrease of app functionality

Issue

This app isn’t iPhone friendly. I can’t get past the intro page where you allow access to camera because I can’t press “next” at the bottom of the screen. Disappointing.

Doesn’t work

I tried literally using the camera function to put my note into the app and the camera doesn’t even show up in the app it’s just a black screen.

The only thing I don’t have linked is my calendar and that shouldn’t affect access to my camera. I checked my permissions in the settings.
