Lost photos!

Terrible lost all my photos and notes of 3 notebooks!

Beautiful!

Was a little odd to start off in a clone of β€œfiles” but the integration is awesome!

Free version is simple yet usefull. Might get the full version sometime

Suggestions:

- I would change the default behaviour of the app to open a blank page/project

- Maybe it would be nice to offer different options for the full version? Maybe a monthly at 3$/month. Then get upgrade to lifetime later? Or at least a week trial?

Funktioniert nicht mit iOS 16

Entwickler scheint nicht mehr aktiv zu sein. Eine einstmals gute App landet auf dem Softwarefriedhof.
