### 1/5 — Worthless

*2019-02-01, version 3.3*

I got it to use on Apple Watch series 4. It only shows note if you continuously hit save on iPhone then it disappears from watch. It doesn’t show up with other apps in settings.

### 1/5 — No options.

*2018-05-13, version 3.0*

No options or settings. It would have been nice to have a check off box.

### 1/5 — Inaccessible crap

*2012-05-26, version 2.4*

Doesn't work well with VoiceOver 
It is a notepad and drawing app. The drawing doesn't work if VoiceOver is running (on or off), and many controls aren't labeled or touchable 
Some screens can only be left by hitting home then killing the app in appswitcher.
Tried it on an iPod touch.

### 1/5 — Is this app a joke??!!!??

*2011-06-28*

If you're really in a hurry, just know that I wanted to give this app less than one star but the App Store server wouldn't let me. 

I can't remember if I originally tried  v1.9 or an older one (10 Feb 2011!). I might have updated the app once without trying it again much/at all. 

When I saw there was a v2.0 update today, I gave v1.9 a thorough test drive again, updated to v2.0 and looked thru it again. 

Oops! I've already wasted too much time on this app. Version 1.9 was laughable, and the update is nearly as laughable. To call any version I've tried an "alpha release"… no; you'd need several letters in the Greek alphabet before "alpha" to describe this app's evolution up to now. 

Do not waste your time; if you're REALLY curious, wait at least another six months.
