Needs updates
Great start and definitely has potential, but this must be a side project for the Dev. Hasn’t been updated since March 2023. Crashes at times and can be buggy.
I would love to see more advancements overall and bugs smashed in concert Mac/iOS updates, more integrations like Evernote, improved integration with OneNote… can’t speak to Notion integration.
I agree with another reviewer… this app has real potential and I’d love to see it succeed, but it’s not worth investing time into using or paying the IAP to upgrade if it isn’t regularly maintained. If it is regularly improved and maintained, I can see this being an attractive offering for many given the ever growing aversion to subscriptions.

可以把“标签”升级成“自定义笔记”功能吗？
参阅另外一款软件“书签/bookmark”，可以新建链接的时候自己添加一些描述字词，并可以在搜索时检索到笔记字词便于寻找归纳，如果可以提供“常用笔记”“历史笔记”就更好了，一键选填🙏因为该软件已经长久不更新了只能祈祷开发者能够看到，好读的网页加载速度很棒，IOS端还提供离线功能，真的非常棒！我是从cubox来的，没有找到合适的网页归纳软件/插件，目前最合适的就是您这款了，希望不要放弃开发！！
Good potential
Mediocre execution and follow through
Great app, but two problems
1) There is no send to functionality. I cannot send a link from safari to the app. I have to open the app and copy/paste the link.
2) A back button when clicking through saved links.

The Potential for Greatness
For a young app, this thing is pretty good. It functions pretty much how you’d expect without much trouble and offers some pretty compelling features at an enticing price. In the era of absurd subscription prices for practically everything from food delivery to storing written plain text — ReadWell differentiates itself from the wolves masquerading in sheep’s clothing by providing an outstanding value for an honorable $5 one time fee.
Sure, it’s not “perfect”, but to be fair is anything really? I hesitate to even leave a 4 star review because I honestly feel that’s being a little too harsh especially considering how young it is. I assume it is from a relatively small team or perhaps even a single individual. If that’s the case, it’s even more impressive what they’ve built here and makes the price all the more worth it. My ONLY real gripe so far is that I can’t seem to understand how to add tags.
The tags menu just opens up and has no field in which to actually type in any tags. I’ve tried tapping mindlessly all over the popup tag menu hoping to see the keyboard pop up but have had no such luck. The only other thing I can really think of that I would say needs some improvement is just maybe a little more UI polish on iOS as well as including a how to guide/more information on some of the features of the app. It doesn’t appear to have cloud syncing between the Mac and iOS apps and the help menu on Mac isn’t available nor is the options for syncing with Notion or OneNote apparently.
All in all, this app is more than worth its value and if you struggle to come to terms with paying for subscriptions on apps, you should pick this up immediately. Keep up the good work devs.

Response from developer
Thanks for such a kind and pertinent review. Regarding creating tags, it can only be done at the home page where you can click the '+' icon and choose to create a tag. The syncing between Mac and iOS should work if you log in as the same Apple user. Syncing with Notion and OneNote will need some pre-configuration to establish the connection before you start to transfer content. We are still polishing the UI and adding more features. Hope we can provide a second to 'perfect' product to everybody.
