### 1/5 — Needs fixing

*2023-11-27*

This looks great and I love that you can change between 4 split or columns, but currently the app / interface is broken.

The settings show an empty screen and there's no button to create new notes. All you get is a blank everything.

Will edit this review once it's fixed :(

**Developer response:** Hi Nayelianne 👋 Thanks so much for your message!

Good news, the big new update is now live, and it fixes the issues you saw (blank settings, missing “new note” button) and brings a bunch of new features on top of that. Everything should be back to normal once you update.

Thanks again for your patience and for sticking with us through the transition 🙏 If anything still looks off after updating, just let me know!

### 3/5 — Add notes?

*2024-10-11*

I like this app, but not able to make more than one note.

### 3/5 — Colour

*2024-06-12*

If it was more colourful then it would be best.

### 4/5 — Useful novel concept but needs customization

*2021-07-21*

I really enjoy using this app: the space may become cramped but the concept works really well / emulates paper much better when you note down into several categories you need.

However, it seems the choice for layouts is only ‘dual, 4 panes, inline’

I’d love to create custom layouts (big area at the top, two columns beneath f ex) or being able to scroll across a layout.

**Developer response:** Hi Mathieu 👋 Thanks so much for your message! Good news, a big new update is now live and brings a bunch of new features and board visualisation improvements. If anything still looks off after updating, just let me know!

### 5/5 — Genius

*2026-04-24*

This is a great app for thinking externally.

### 5/5 — Clean Interface

*2022-11-29*

Easy to use
