NEEDS a huge modernization
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.

Not user friendly
This app is not user friendly at all
Great...uh...premise
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.

Stupidly
I can’t describe how stupid it is
Nice people
Couldn’t ask for a nicer response to an old man’s question.
Disappointed so far
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.

So slow
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
Limited use, terrible interface
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.

Awful
Terrible amateur app
Awful
Screws up more or less constantly. Deletes entries, test function is pathetic.
Scam
Not cohesive, unclear on how to use, will get messages like “error. Try again” when trying to use it
Almost great
I love the idea of this app. Being able to use my apple pencil and physically write on the cards, group them into categories, then study them is fantastic and just what I need. However, it’s far too buggy to even use.
-Every button press takes a good three or four seconds to process.
-sometimes my pen won’t register at all and I have to restart the app. The app still works but I select the pen icon to write and it does nothing, or just freezes and takes forever to respond (sometimes I come back and see all the failed scribbles finally show up (which now I must go back and remove))
- It will randomly decide writing with my apple pen means I want it to convert to text which I do not (I used this app to study ancient greek which is nearly impossible to do with a keyboard, so it trying to transcribe what i’m writing randomly without me telling it to do so was frustrating) This usually happens when i select the eraser tool; instead of erasing, it will take my pen movements as text and input it, which I then have to go back and delete.
-cards would glitch and look different from the menu to when you actually select them.
-Random crashing
I wish this app worked. I really do. It would be one I use daily if it wasn’t for the constant bugs that cause making one card into a frustrating mess.

Love the app
I loved this app. It saves me a lot of time. Like any other app you may have an issue but I haven’t had any serious issue that signing out and back in hasn’t resolved itself. The App support responds quickly. Glad I purchased it!
Exactly what I needed . . .
I was looking for an index card printing database that would help me create an analog Zettlekasten (Notebox). Beautifully creafted applicationn and it is continuously being updated with additional functionality. Customer Service is First Rate. Highly recommended!
Buggy, not worth it
I recently went back to school to get a BA and was looking for a note taking app that could sync between my iPad Pro, MacBook Air, and google pixel, and that would allow me to use my Apple Pencil to write written notes. That request is a tall order, so I was excited when I stumbled upon Notdex. Unfortunately, this app is too good to be true. It is slow, it lags, and the hand writing functionality is barely usable because of how laggy it is. I had to close the app out and open it back up three times trying to write one note card because the darn thing kept freezing. Additionally, the UI is clunky and the graphics low quality. If the developer is able to address these concerns, thus app would be stellar and absolutely worth the cost. As it stands, though, I would pass on this one.

Really buggy
Using on a new MacBook Pro. App is buggy and lags. When typing text the text size and format will change at random.. I get a card typed as I like it and all of a sudden different lines will change size and completely mess up the card. Start over and same thing happens. Too frustrating for me to deal its let alone pay for. Is a good idea but is not working well at current time. Only need one day of trial to figure out is not for me

App needs work
App barely works. editing UI is almost no responses. having issue with this most basic of tasks like adding a card to the stack. you mileage may vary, but the OSX app for me is a no go.
Freezes and doesn’t save
Worked great for the first 12 cards then after I wrote cards 13-24 none of them saved. I had to force close the app and now it keeps freezing or it doesn’t want to save.
Exactly what I wanted
I wanted a cross-platform app for my solo business where I could track and search a variety of notes including to-do lists, clients, meetings, projects, social media posts, and reference materials. I signed up for the trial period and right away knew NoteDex was exactly what I wanted. The app is user friendly, and the developer has helpful tutorial videos. I like the simplicity of the user interface and am super impressed by the variety and usefulness of the notecard organization functions. NoteDex is the perfect and improved (searchable text!) replacement for taking notes on paper.

Has Potential
This app has great potential. Unfortunately it is very buggy and lags, even on a newer iPad Pro. The user interface looks like it is from Windows 95, is not very user friendly and is confusing. I would spend the money, if these issues could be fixed.
