### 5/5 — Five star 💫 🌟 Notes app!

*2019-09-07, version 6.51*

✯✯✯✯✯  WriteCube  ✯✯✯✯✯ 

::: Here is my previous review, written a year ago :::

Essential app for text notes ★★★★★ WriteCube‼️👍🎯🍕✔️✅☑️

✅ Very good app for plain text notes. As of iOS8 the standard Apple Notes app will NOT remove HTML formatting. If you are copying any selection or snip from a webpage, that could be a problem for your note taking, or emailing. This app cleans up any messy HTML formatting, giving you pure plaintext. Many other useful text processing features, such as text sorting for a list, upshift, downshift, count characters in a selection, date/time stamp, etc... These useful functions are missing from many note-taking apps, including the Apple iOS notes app. 
≡≡≡ 
Hints: To force cloud-save of your current draft note, just close the note and re-open, the upload is done upon re-opening the same note, or opening any other note. Presto, uploading... The first line of your note is the label for each one of your drafts. The draft list is chronological, but you can drag notes around if you need to rearrange your drafts list. The SORT function will sort every line in the whole note, not just the selected text. 
≡≡≡ 
Highly Recommended, five stars. ★★★★★ A very handy text app ★★★★★ must have! ★★★★★ Using this app daily, for more than a year, I find the developer is very responsive to suggestions, and fixes any problems within a short time after they are reported.
