User reviews

Love the concept

I hope this app continues to be developed. It's a great concept but needs a little improvement.

Please fix the date setting : when I enter a date and save, it's always a day behind. This may be a time zone issue. For example, document date of issue, I select 4.27.23. When I view the information, the date is 4.26.23. Same happens when I enter birth dates in contact fields.

*Needs to be a way to edit categories.
*Would like to see substacks!
*On my iPad the biometric setting doesn't seem to work - I have unlock with biometrics set but I always have to enter my password. It works fine on my iPhone.

Please update and continue development! It will be fantastic when all the little bugs are worked out!

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback! I will take a look at the dates issue soon. As well as the iPad biometrics. The custom categories will come with the v3, preparing some other improvements in the metadata editing.
