★★★★ Stan Silverman 4/14/2026 v3.6.2.3913
After making a new note twice, and pressing the SAVE icon, the only note displayed is the example that the app starts with. Before mentioning the rating I might give to an app that deals with both personal information (This is a note app, where security is a minimum, not a game or something inconsequential) and 3rd parties who might get access to my data; A note app that doesn't save notes is useless, add in the 3rd parties and its harmful. The potential features were a draw, just do it right.

I used to love this app, it never used to have ads before, now they are LOADED with them! they're loud, obnoxious, and drive me crazy! I hate the fact that you have to pay in order to get rid of them. I would've gotten rid of it and looked for a new one, but all the ones I have tried either also have ads or are just too confusing to figure out as they mess with your entire home screen.
★★★★ Stephen Price 4/3/2026

★★★★★ Lori Minimi 2/8/2026 v3.5.0.3806
This is a clean, simple notes app and I can see why it’s popular for casual use. However, on Samsung devices (especially the Z Fold), it struggles badly with multitasking. During phone calls, it often holds screen focus and interferes with accessing the keyboard at all. I’ve had multiple moments where I simply could not type anything while on a call. If you use notes casually, it may be fine but for real-time multitasking, it’s extremely frustrating. Uninstalling! 👋👋👋
★★★★★ Upashana Salam 2/8/2026 v2.2.0.3543
You won't be able to save one note without being inundated by ads. Terrible experience using this app, especially during times of urgency.
