### 1/5 — 時系列がぐちゃぐちゃに

*2026-08-01*

今日アプリを開いたら、何年も前のデータが最上部に！最新のものは！？消えた！？と焦って確認したら、なぜか最新のいくつかのデータがごっそり真ん中の方に移動していました。
不便なので元のように時系列順に直そうにも、操作が不安定&面倒すぎて(データを長押しすれば並べ替えはできるが、ひとつひとつゆっくりでないとできない)断念。
なぜ突然このように……？アップデートのせい……？
何年も重宝していたのに、突然このようなことになって裏切られた気分。非常に残念です。
せめてデータを時系列順に並べる機能ぐらいあれば……。

### 2/5 — 突然、保存順がバラバラになりました

*2026-07-31*

長らく愛用しているのですが初めて不具合が起きましたので報告させていただきます。 
今日突然、アプリを開くと一番上に最新のメモ、下に行くにつれ過去のメモへと並んでいたはずの順番がバラバラになっていました。 
詳しく説明すると、2019年に保存したもの(複数)が一番上に来ていて、その下に2026年、2025年、2024年...とそれ以前のものが続いています。
7年分のデータが消えたのかと一瞬思ったのですが、遡ればデータは見られるのでひとまず安心しました。 
しかし最新のメモを参照したいので、昔のデータが一番上にあることにかなり不便を感じております。 
 最新の保存順(日付順)に並べ直すことはできませんか？

### 3/5 — アップデート後メモしたのがよく消えてる

*2026-07-22*

アップデート後メモしたのがよく消えてる。

アプリを起動したまま一旦離れて戻ってきたらカーソルが変な位置にあったり、同じく起動したままにして戻ってコピペしようとするとブルーのラインが所々二重になってて上手くコピペできなかったり。

以前から気になってプチストレスではあるけど報告するまでもなく対処しながら使ってましたが、メモが消えるとなると考えもの。

こちらのメモをメインに１日の終わりに他のメモにバックアップしてましたが、メインを他に移すことも考えないといけないようです。

### 5/5 — perfect quick notes app

*2026-06-24, version 0.74*

i love this app to jot down and refine prompts. i initially downloaded it bc of the character count, but i also love that i can refer back to old notes quickly and there’s no digging around folders. no formatting to slow things down, and easy to get around. and the separate app for x use keeps it simple for me. i also like that it lets us back up locally for a time we choose, and edit the font and colors. it’s just happens to be perfect for my specific use case, and it’s completely free with no ads?? unheard of in this day and age! 

thank you for making this app, devs!

### 4/5 — New update patched issue

*2026-06-03, version 0.76*

Much better I was having issues with the previous update I think 0.75 or so causing weird slowdown this new version fixes that and it's much more reliable no other issues right now. Still lack of features and issues others have noted but much better. 

Thank you for listening

### 2/5 — Doesnt understand English

*2026-05-08, version 0.74*

This app consistently glitches. Pauses. Writes completely the wrong word spoken to it.

### 4/5 — please add global search &some zip txt export

*2026-05-05, version 0.74*

this app is great and i got the pay upgrade

please please add a global notes search function and a txt zip export of all notes in 1 file; or csv file or even just 1 txt file with all notes seperated by ------------ lines or something

thanks please add these id even pay again!!

### 5/5 — 動作が軽く目に優しい神アプリ

*2026-04-17*

元々iPhoneのデフォルトメモ帳で小説を書いていて、数万字を超えると動作が重くなることから、代替アプリを探していました。

文字数メモさんは動作が軽く、設定項目もシンプルでありながら必要なものが一通り揃っているため、すぐに虜になりました。

個人的に嬉しいのは、ダークトーンだけではなくセピア調があること。
輝度を落とさなくとも長時間目が疲れない組み合わせにとても助けられています。

文句なしの使いやすいアプリなので、このままずっと使い続けるつもりです。
作ってくださりありがとうございます。

1点だけ、微妙に痒い点があるとすれば…
テキストのコピペ選択の際、上方向には画面がスクロールされないことです。
なので数十行単位で選択したい際は、上を起点に下に選択してコピペするしかないです。
（iPhoneのデフォルトメモアプリだと上下どちらもスクロール可）

でもそれくらいで、それ以外は全く不便ないので、本当にありがたいです。

### 5/5 — レビューと要望です♪

*2026-03-30*

こんにちは、いつもシンプルでつかいやすい素敵なアプリをありがとうございます♪
毎日のちょっとしたことをメモするのにとても役立っています
今回少し要望があってレビューを書かせていただいたのですが、もしよろしければ、文字や背景などを好きな色に出来るようにしてほしいです…！
好きなフォントにできてとてもテンションが上がるので、この調子で文字の色も好きなものにできれば、すごくすごく嬉しいなと思います！
要望はそれだけで、機能はとてもシンプルで分かりやすくつかいやすい最高のアプリです♪
アプリに機能を追加したりするのはとても大変かと思いますが、もしよろしければよろしくお願いします
長文、拙い文章失礼いたしました！

### 4/5 — 改行を文字数に含めない設定

*2026-01-08, version 0.74*

改行を文字数に含めない設定がほしい。その他は使いやすくて便利。
