User reviews

Extremely confusing

I can’t figure out how I’m supposed to actually use this app. Even the examples in the screenshots here in the App Store seem like gibberish to me, so I have no clue how it’s supposed to help me plan anything.

When I open the app the buttons at the top when I’m typing something don’t even show the whole word, so I just have to guess between ‘S…p’ and ‘S…e.’ I figured that ‘S…e’ was probably ‘save,’ and I was right judging by the screenshots—only it didn’t save.
I saw someone else had that problem a year ago, and the developer tried to fix it, but it still doesn’t save. No matter what I try, it doesn’t save anything. You type something out, and hit the save button, and your document just closes and whooshes off into the ether, never to be seen again, not even in the search function. And no, I was not typing in the print section.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. What device are you using and what version? I haven't been able to reproduce this issue myself so I've only been able to guess what the problem is. I don't blame you for being confused at how the app is supposed to work, I regret that I made it for myself without consideration of how intuitive it would be for others. I was originally jotting my ideas down in Apple's native Notes app, and ended up with like 50,000 words worth of notes, all unorganized. I made this app so that I could group related ideas based on their titles (which, once you're able to save, get aggregated together in the explore area). It's essentially meant to be a search engine for your notes. I plan on rebuilding this app properly one day, so any suggestions for what specifically you are looking for will be taken into consideration. I want to help!

The other reviewer didn’t know how to use it

I’m still not sure what the functionality is but it does what it says it does. I took one star off for room for growth

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. This was my first project and my idea was restricted by my ability. The idea is to borrow the concepts of Object Oriented Programming as well as SQL querying and apply it to notes, so you can effectively have an organized database of your ideas.

Useless! Doesn’t save anything!

Useless! Doesn’t save anything! Deleting and never coming back!!😠😡👎🏻

Response from developer

Were you writing in the “print” section? That area is only meant to output the notes that you fetch so you can copy it to your word processor. I have removed the ability to type into that area to hopefully avoid further confusion. I appreciate your feedback, and when I build a second version of this app I will keep your frustration in mind in order to build something much better and user friendly, which I am very confident I can do with the skills I have acquired since I published this.

Nice setup, nothing saves

It’s a half-decent setup, maybe slightly confusing, however, nothing saves apart from making a new world.
