What's New in QuickNotes X

5.5.2

June 11, 2026

INTRODUCING THE TRASH • Ever felt like you needed to recover notebooks which you have previously deleted? Introducing the Trash: your deleted notes, notebooks and folders are now all recoverable after you delete them! • You can open the Trash from any notebook or folder, and from there you will be able to recover notes, notebooks and even entire folders or delete them forever. • When you choose to delete an item, it will be moved to the Trash for you to optionally recover it later on. If you want to remove it permanently, open the Trash and delete them. • You can even choose to recover individual items from the Trash. Did you delete a notebook but wanted to keep a few pages? Simply open the Trash, select pages you want to recover, and pick a new Notebook to host them. • For every item you recover, you have the option to choose where to place it back for maximum flexibility. OTHER FEATURES AND IMPROVEMENTS • Introducing a revamped, new file management system, which improves upon the previous system while bringing more flexibility for organizing and interacting with your notes. All notes will be migrated to use the new system after opening the updated app for the first time. • Fixed a bug which made the "Small Square Grid" page template not available • Added a settings option to manually restart document format migration • Other minor bug fixes and performance improvements

Crashes and Loses Files

This app seemed fine at first. However, shortly into using the app, I noticed that the app crashes very easily. You will try to move a file and it randomly files itself to a random folder or the app crashes (or both). I then have to sift through every folder in hopes I find the note. I then can’t move that file out of that new random folder it landed itself in, as that’s too much for the app and it will crash again. It will not allow me to delete a file either, so it’s very hard to try and clean up space in the app. I emailed the app creators about my app concerns months ago and never received a response.

App glitches

This app has been problematic for years. I chose it because of the password protected books you could make. A feature not common with other note taking apps. But It glitches and crashes constantly. It does not import pdfs like it should and when jpgs are added to it, it crashes more frequently. I hate this app and will finally try to find another

Worst Nightmare Apps

Bad choice, all my notes since I got the apps 5 years ago are gone after updating it and it took a while for the support team to respond to my emails with zero problem solving suggestion. Not even deserve one star.

Was amazing

After using this for years suddenly adding pages started saying no template today. I delete and reinstalled…… big mistake as my data was on the iPad not cloud stored and I lost every single notebook. I somehow found a couple that were in one drive but only one of them imports. Likely the latest update causes the problem as reinstalling didn’t fix the issue. Hopefully they fix it.
