Pad & Quill Notes User Reviews

Misleading

It looks it’s free or you can try it to see how it works out; but it gives you link to app cases and website for tablet accessories and no way you can try anything without buy it. They get higher downloaded number yet the least users and appreciation. Don’t download dishonest,

UPDATE YOUR APP

For real just update it. Make it more compatible for new phones, fix the bugs, add more things.

I wish I could journal

I cant get it to work. I am trying to journal and the letters don’t appear on the screen. I looked for customer service to contact someone but can only find links to purchase products. I wish I could use it.

No Apple Pencil support

Good app for taking notes with keyboard, sad this doesn't support Apple Pencil notes even for simple strokes. Hope they implement this feature one day and I will reinstall and give 5 stars.

i can’t add my personal pictures here

that’s a big problem and it’s not easy to find deleted pages

Needs A Free Trial

This app needs a free trial period to be added to it. There’s no way to preview all the features and I’m not sure how well it suits my needs without it. I’ve been looking for a journaling app with covers that I could customize and that I could add images to. What I noticed in the limited version is it doesn’t have a way to change the text or the colors of the text, the page color and style can’t be changed either. Has some bugs the quill at the bottom of the page has options but when pressed nothing happens it’s blank. You can’t add pictures until you pay for the app so I’m not sure what options you have or how well it handles placing them on the pages. No voice recording option and no tags.

New personal favorite

I've tried a lot of journaling/notebook apps and this is easily the best of them for me. It's straightforward, got a good layout (especially the menu for font and whatnot on each page), and it's beautifully designed. I'll definitely be buying the rest of the covers and fonts. The only complaint I have is that when you touch the page you're brought right down to the bottom instead of where you touched and brought to the top when you close the keyboard so it kind of jumps around when you're on a longer page. But kudos! This is a great app. Well done.

Very Disappointing

After downloading this app this morning and paying $2.99 to unlock all the added features, I discovered that there are no added features, other than two other font types. There seems to be no other paper choices, no way to label notebooks, no way to see the notebooks together and no way to insert photographs within a notebook which would be useful and expected. Additionally, after additional features were "unlocked," I also discovered the notebook I had begun had vanished with all of its content. Refund please?

Great App

I write fan fiction and this is a great app for writing to go! I've written a whole 12 chapter story so far. The only reason I'm not giving it a full five stars is because I wish it had a word counter on it.

Nope

This app was good for a few weeks, now it's glitching, freezing, force closing the app. Nope. I wouldn't recommend it.

This app is horrible

In my opinion this app is not what you think it is if you buy something it really does not work I would not get this app

Beautiful

(Another reviewer requested the ability to name their journals...but you already can. Simply tap the gear icon on the notebook, then click the notebook's name to edit.)

What a gorgeous app. This app has transitioned nicely from the old iOS look to the new, and has looked beautiful all the while. It's a modern style that feels more like an old moleskine journal than any other app. It's a pleasure to use, and there have been no syncing issues for me.

Attn to: App owner & investors

I hope the owners of this app along with the app makers are going over reviews from people using their product. I was looking for a good journal. Something to keep all my ideas in one place while I get rid of the physical papers and all the different projects I have. I came across this app through what seems to be an old 2012 article boasting this product. I came to the Apple Store to look for it and it seems it is left to nothing. The black and white format is bland and definitely not like the picture I saw in the article with wood grain background and books stacked upon each other to indicate the varying portfolio of ideas. Instead you side swipe for the various journals created. I am disappointed to say the least. I had been looking for something similar to the older version. Unfortunately, that is not what I found. I found a bland app which seems downgraded by its makers. I'm sorry to whatever brought you to the decision of revamping the app to it's present day form. Please bring back the old format with wood grain. Black journals with its title on the left and a black background.

Very good

I'm still on a quest for the ultimate note taking mobile app. This is a very good contender. I would love to see dropbox sync in a future version.clearly, a lot of thought was put into the design, which I appreciate.

Great

I haven't used it a lot yet, but so far I'm well-pleased. Lovin it.

Once good, now sad.

I use to love this app! I would hold all my writings in it, but now it just crashes in the middle of me writing something, and it doesn't even save it! Sometimes my journals delete by themselves, deleting everything that I had written in it. I'm so mad that i wasted money on this.

Seems decent

I could not open it on my iPhone 6 but it works well on my iPad mini.

Mad

I downloaded iOS 8 and all the data from this app disappeared. I am beyond furious seeing as I used this app to write on

It would be great if they would update

I initially got the app and it worked very well. But then the problems started: I couldn't save and I wasn't able to type in landscape mode. If they would just have more frequent updates and bug fixes then I could rate the product a lot higher and use it a lot more often like I used to, but now I feel like I have to open a new notebook every time I want to use it and God for bid I use more than nine pages or it will freeze every single time.

Worked Alright, But Crashed Permanently?

This app was a good alternative to using online journaling and for taking notes during phone calls! It worked all right, but today during an important phone call that I needed to take notes on, it crashed and wiped all my other notes (thankfully, I had them saved elsewhere). I'm disappointed that an app that worked well for me failed to deliver and perform well during crucial moment.
