Also, there’s no chance of finding the developer for HELP as his website doesn’t exist and there’s no other way to contact. Unfortunately, I’m going to have to find a substitute. Oh well, it was free and good while it lasted. ### 4/5 — Great app but crashes now *2021-11-27, version 2.1* Very simple way to quickly and easily keep lists for whatever you need. A recent IOS or upgrade causes the app to immediately crash and I can no longer access the lists I was keeping. Ugh. ### 4/5 — 4 out 5 stars and here is WHY *2021-10-19, version 2.1* I love this app and uses it constantly to write down thoughts, take notes in meetings, copy/paste Texts from other sources or to send something to my email. I just wish the contents can be backed up in the cloud. My iPhone crashed the other day and I was able to restore everything (pics, emails, messages apps, including QD). However, I lost all the notes, important information I had on QD). I was really frustrated over the fact that I was not able to restore my notes. Otherwise, I would have given QD a 5 star. Tech Dept. - please work on that :). ### 5/5 — M. A. Quidwai *2021-10-07, version 2.1* I have been using this App since years - don’t recall actual year. It’s a cute small drafting app for me. But is quite useful. I have almost become addicted to it while using very often every day. I tried various others but none could beat its simplicity & usefulness. ### 3/5 — Prior version *2021-06-22, version 2.1* I have a prior version of this that worked fine until iOS 14.5. It no longer works and I have no way of retrieving my notes. No way to contact support. When tapping on the icon to start the program, a message shows up saying that the developers need to update the program to work with this version of iOS. ### 1/5 — Worked perfect until last IOS update *2021-06-18, version 2.1* I hope that somebody can help me with this. I have been using this app for many years and about 1 week ago while trying to open it up, I got the following message “Quick Drafts” Needs to be Updated. The developer of this app needs to update it to work with this version of IOS. I tried to get app support but no luck. I am unable to access the material that I have saved in this app. Please developer update this app so that I may get my material! I would be so grateful - thank you! ### 4/5 — BEST *2019-11-18, version 2.1* I've gone through maybe 25 different note apps and this one is great but recently I have had the following problems 1 - can’t email the ⬆️ button is not working 2 - cursor acts funny 3 - trying to copy a small portion on the page is nonfunctional ### 5/5 — Great App! Will You Update? *2019-01-06, version 2.1* I love this simple and dependable app. I see it has been 4 years since your last update. Will you be sticking with this app? I hope so!!! I’d love to know=) ### 4/5 — Great app but the cursor makes my blood boil *2017-09-26, version 2.1* I’ve been using this app for years, and overall it’s great. The one thing that makes me crazy is that the cursor bounces around wildly and for no good reason. For example, you might try to use the selection sliders to outline a particular piece of text, and it will fly up to the middle of the note randomly, forcing you to scroll back down and try again. This makes it frustrating when trying to copy and paste, and sometimes I feel like spiking my phone into the ground like a football, but it’s my only real complaint. Otherwise the app has lots of powerful features and a clean UI. If they fix that I will revise my review. ### 5/5 — Just what I've needed. *2017-02-19, version 2.1* I have tried other apps claiming to be the same or similar & not one has delivered as far as simplicity & total ease of use. The other apps require making & naming lists, categories, etc. With Quick Draft, what you read is what you get. Open the app & text what's on your mind. Figure out the details later...Just as promised in app description. QD IS AWESOME!!! ## Frequently asked questions about Quick Drafts ### What does Quick Drafts do?
