### 1/5 — 何度も消えました…

*2024-05-12, version 1.0.1*

何度も苦労して作ったものが丸々消えました…外国語を時間をかけて訳したものなので、ショックです。
保存した途端に消えます。
一覧には空欄が1行できて、開いても白紙。
デベロッパの方はもう放置してるアプリなのかな。
使い勝手はいいので残念ですが、怖いので使うのをやめます。

### 4/5 — Great for simple logging

*2024-02-01*

This is a great app for simple logging. This app would be even better if we could choose ascending and descending order for the notes.

### 1/5 — Great idea, terrible execution

*2024-01-24*

I love the idea of an electronic app that would allowed me to take notes and annotate along side it without forced brevity. Unfortunately, the app continually loses data and every single saved entry only has the title saved, and every single entries contents is erased every time I use the app

### 2/5 — iOS17.0.2にアップデートしたら、

*2023-10-01, version 1.0.1*

バグ発生してます。
入力ができません。。使い勝手良くて重宝しているのに困ってます。

### 1/5 — what the hell are the buttons functioning

*2022-09-25, version 1.0.1*

the concept/function of two rows is good, but how to use the buttons is a huge issue. You must be careful not to press the buttons mistakenly, or you’ll be regret. Especially not to double click, once I did not save the things and double click, all the things disappeared !

### 5/5 — 教えて！

*2022-02-24, version 1.0.1*

とても素晴らしいアプリです。プリントが出来ないのですが教えてください。

### 5/5 — 左右で見比べできて便利！

*2020-08-23, version 1.0.1*

いつもありがたく使ってます。
メモの順番を入れ替えられたら更にいいなと思います。

### 5/5 — 他にないアプリです

*2020-08-19, version 1.0.1*

初めて使います！一覧画面でメモの順番を入れ替えたり、編集画面でカラーペンが使えるようにしてほしいです。あまりあれこれ機能を付けすぎるのも、コンセプトから外れて良くないですが、今はシンプルすぎなように感じます。

### 1/5 — 改善希望

*2020-07-21, version 1.0.1*

保存ボタンを押しても保存されずメモが消えます。
とても使いたい機能的なメモなので改善されると嬉しいです。
