Bad App.

This App has a very simple interface. It should provide a consistent and simple way to record date. You made a project subfolder and then you may notes for that project. You can upload photos to it. It sounds easy enough, but the App is awful. After a day on site with only 61 notes with photos attached to each, the App simple stopped working. I canโ€™t access the notes or interact with them at all. There is no way to access backup files to the entire day could have been wasted entirely. A pure disappointment, to be honest. Go elsewhere.

Annoying click noice

An annoying clicking sound, absolutely useless. The developer does not respond.

Ok

I like the ability to add picture but I wish I also was able to upload older ones. There is no option to have notes only attributed to a picture at a time. Overall it is a nice start, I hope the app gets more features with time.

Does what it says on the tin.

Good little app. As someone who takes detailed notes in the field, I am always on the look out for tools to make my life a little easier.

Only two criticisms that would be nice to see addressed.

The actual text box is a little small when you start writing your notes. A little frustrating to scroll back and forth to check what you have written. Additionally, the sample text needs to be manually deleted. When you click in the box, it would be handy if you could just start typing.

Secondly, there are no settings I could find. Having the clunky noise each time I moved section is irritating, and if you are trying to take notes quietly, itโ€™s a little inconspicuous. Would be good to be able to turn sounds off.

Not the best app I have used. Not the worst either. Ability to email myself is great. Lack of customisation options isnโ€™t. Being able to go back and look at the map easily for each note, great. Presentation, fun not functional.

For such a small price, worth testing to see if it does what you need.

Not what I wanted

Most of the features worked great with no glitches or bugs. However, the geotagging doesnโ€™t work and everything shows up as 0. Iโ€™ve double checked my settings to no avail. I also donโ€™t like how you canโ€™t upload a previously taken photo. I downloaded this app to organize my ecology notes before transferring them to paper but it was a complete disappointment.
