### 3/5 — Too bad you can’t retrive deleted notes

*2026-06-22*

This app would be great if you could retrieve notes deleted by mistake. Can’t believe they didn’t think about confirming if you want that note deleted or an undo feature. What a bummer!

### 4/5 — Search engine for file

*2026-05-15*

It wold be great to have search engine

### 4/5 — Bogue

*2025-03-15*

Depuis la dernière mise à jour l’application gèle, incapable de faire des ajouts.

### 4/5 — Update v7.7.29 has a Scrolling Bug 🐜 (Updated)

*2024-09-26*

iOS v17.6.1 App v7.7.29 For years this has been a great bug-free app working thru several iPhone upgrades. 🐜 Today I noticed after opening a saved note and trying to scroll up or down thru the document it no longer scrolls properly. Not good news. Swipe down and nothing happens for several seconds, then it scrolls a little. Scroll up, same thing. Try to close (X) the document and it takes a few seconds delay then closes. Tried restarting the app, no difference. Tried restarting the phone, no difference. This doesn’t happen in the menus, only opened documents. ::::: ➡️Here’s a couple ways to duplicate the problem: ➡️Open a new note and copy the following line 500 times: “Test one two three…“ + Return. It should scroll smoothly without hesitation. - Now add a few more lines to it. For me scrolling becomes sluggish taking as long as 2sec between cursor refreshes. ➡️Open a new note and copy that same line 250 times, but this time Number the lines (Select All, tap the Number icon in the formatting bar). Again it should scroll smoothly. - Now add a few more numbered lines to it. And again for me the scrolling becomes sluggish taking up to 2sec between cursor refreshes. 🟢 BTW I never new Safety Note+ Pro existed until I searched the App Store to post this bug report. Fix this bug and I’ll be more than happy to upgrade to help support it.

### 4/5 — Update v7.7.29 has a Scrolling Bug 🐜

*2024-09-16*

For years this has been a great bug-free app working thru several iPhone upgrades. I wanted to purchase it to contribute to its further development but it’s not available for purchase, only subscription.

If you haven’t noticed, most subscription based business models are dead or dying. People have had it up to here with subscriptions. That was Adobe’s mistake and they never learned. Just make your app available for purchase and I think you’ll see enough people will gladly purchase to own at an affordable price.

Today I noticed after opening a saved note and trying to scroll up or down thru the document it no longer scrolls properly. Not good news.

Swipe down and nothing happens for several seconds, then it scrolls a little. Scroll up, same thing.

Try to close (X) the document and it takes a few seconds delay then closes.

Tried restarting the app, no difference.

Tried restarting the phone, no difference.

This doesn’t happen in the menus, only opened documents.

Great app, but it now has a crippling bug 🐜 making it practically useless.

And when you upload updates to the App Store, you need to let us know what bugs you’ve swatted: 
Some of us never update apps for fear of catching a bug and crippling its use, just like what’s happened here leaving us no way to reinstall the previous working app.

(This serious & dangerous policy limitation by Apple for iOS and it needs to be rescinded, along with their insistence for incessant & minor updates which may introduce fatal errors & flaws like this one)

Bottom line: i can’t use this app to access my documents for weeks until after the developer finds the bug, fixes it, and issues another update.

iOS v17.6.1
App v7.7.29

### 4/5 — Great protected passwords. One hiccup

*2024-03-25*

I love this app because it keeps my passwords safe and protected. One hiccup is that you cannot select key words or copy paste the passwords or user names like normal selections on an iPhone. The only option is select all which I don’t need. I only need to copy and select the user or password needed. I hope you fix this so it works like a usual iPhone select tool.

### 1/5 — One star.

*2024-02-18*

Why do you? Why do you have to pay for stuff?

### 3/5 — Update Broke Commands

*2024-02-17*

The update caused Copy/Paste commands to no longer work when highlighted. Only works when something isn’t highlighted which defeats the purpose.

### 4/5 — The app as good as it get be

*2023-10-31*

I purchased the app for it security feature, and it delivered what I wanted. Just wonder if a text search function can added

### 1/5 — Passwort funktionierte nicht mehr.

*2023-10-01*

Das Passwort funktionierte nach einem Tag nicht mehr.
Lies sich auch nicht wiederherstellen.
Alles geschriebene war weg.
So musste ich die die App löschen und neu installieren. Das motiviert mich nicht gerade zum Kauf.

### 1/5 — No instructions anywhere!

*2023-09-17*

App works and seems secure, but if you want to share with a nearby device, how do you do it. Can’t find instructions anywhere!

### 1/5 — All my notes just vanished

*2025-10-30, version 7.8.19*

No warning, no reason, just gone. No I don’t want to pay for extra cloud storage, I expect things to stay on my device!

### 1/5 — v7.8.0 Can’t store over 500 lines per document

*2024-12-19*

iOS v17.6.1 App v7.7.32 ::::::> Apparently this app has a design limitation on the amount of info per file it can store before it becomes sluggish.

### 1/5 — Eli

*2024-09-29*

It went from English to Chinese. I don’t know why now I lost everything. How do I recover all my data from iCloud thanks.

### 1/5 — Worked well until…

*2024-06-03, version 7.7.23*

Used the paid version for many years until an update or something made it crash every time I try to log in. All my secure data and notes and business information I stored in it are trapped. No contact from support despite several emails and messages. So disappointing and frustrating.

### 1/5 — For the love of God

*2024-04-19*

FIX THE COPY AND PASTE. Bring back the “select” option…the “Select All” isn’t always what I NEED!
I currently can NO LONGER simply look up a note, select a password from within the note then copy it to be pasted elsewhere. 

Fix it already!

### 1/5 — Syncing across devices cost money?

*2024-03-23*

I was impressed with this app until I went to sync it with my other devices… Not Impressed… the developer expects you to upgrade $$ and then pay for iCloud storage… what a joke

### 1/5 — Слетел пароль

*2024-02-20*

А сброс требует оплаты 99 рублей.
Пользуюсь много лет и вдруг я «забыл» пароль? Серьезно?
Это просто вымогательство.
