### 1/5 — misleading and underdeveloped

*2026-08-06, version 4.9*

not only is this app as underdeveloped as the other reviews say, but its also not free. when you first open it it starts a 7 day free trial, which, when over, restricts the app so you can’t actually add any new cards after 7 days. therefore this is just a completely paid app with a 7 day free trial.

### 5/5 — Essential Workflow

*2026-07-11, version 98*

I really love using NoteDex.  It is really simple to get going with it and gives me the flexibility to plan, edit and update my creative projects.

### 3/5 — NEEDS a huge modernization

*2026-03-13, version 4.9*

The interface still resembles a 2018-2020 hybrid web wrapper rather than a modern native iOS app.
• Iconography and layout have obviously not been modernized. 
• manual dated
• cannot handle large files very well. Gets stuck readily. 
I want to like NoteDex but the current setup is frustrating. Looks like an old Android app, not a sleek modern one. I’m use to iPhone apps being modern and fast… this isn’t. 
It does work better on Windows.
You need to check out CardFlow+. It kicks this one easily, readily. Only issue is it doesn’t do Windows. If it did I’d move to CardFlow. As it is I’m stuck with this clunker.

### 1/5 — Not user friendly

*2026-02-15, version 4.9*

This app is not user friendly at all

### 2/5 — Great...uh...premise

*2026-01-27, version 4.9*

I wanted to loved this app, but it has so many glitches it simply isn't worth using. Half the time I couldn’t get the font to change or take on a color, or take on an attribute like bold. Every time I attempted to apply an attribute, I had to bow out of the program and come back in again before it would take affect.

Designer: if you ever get around to fixing these things, I will be more than happy to try this again. But there is no way that I am going to hang onto an app that simply doesn’t work, especially in today’s market. The thought of spending $2.99 a month, or getting a one year deal for $30 is worth it if, and I say IF,  the app works correctly and consistently well.

### 1/5 — Stupidly

*2025-12-18, version 4.9*

I can’t describe how stupid it is

### 5/5 — Nice people

*2025-09-02, version 4.9*

Couldn’t ask for a nicer response to an old man’s question.

### 1/5 — Disappointed so far

*2025-08-06, version 4.9*

I thought this would be what I needed to keep notes on each of my cases. Just tried to log in on my iPad. Spent about half an hour having to log in through Microsoft’s 20 step log in process. Finally got logged in to see that I only have a free trial of a program I paid for. Still hasn’t loaded my data on my iPad.  Not a bad program but way too much trouble just to keep notes on cards.

### 1/5 — So slow

*2025-06-02, version 4.9*

The app is slow, don’t know why we need to log in every time.  Each slide takes 3-4 seconds to load. So laggy

### 2/5 — Limited use, terrible interface

*2025-01-27, version 56*

This is not necessarily a stand-alone app. you must be connected to the Internet to open and requires a sign-in every time. It is a Web-based app with a desktop interface.

It is sluggish at time and has limited usefulness other than a flashcard/index card. I wanted something to keep track of physician’s preferences and I need to work offline for some of my processes. This does not allow me to use it at the same time and is very restrictive.

I don not recommend  this program.
