I love the idea of open notes, and I don’t even hate the txt boxes you use instead of just a standard notation feel, but when I type, eventually, the words begin to be blocked by the keyboard and it doesn’t let me scroll down so I can see what I’m actually typing.  This could be fixed by either having a bar that showed your current line on the keyboard or near it, or by allowing the user to scroll down.  I’m not really sure what this is meant for, but typing is not viable.  Maybe drawing?  But who draws on a phone?  I just want a note app that Google doesn’t own.

**Developer response:** Hello, I am sorry about that, and will definitely fix it. Yes, it is primarily designed for drawing on iPads, but can certainly make it better on phones.
