I'm using a Rog phone 9 pro. The app won't even load. I open it and it's stuck on the U icon symbol and won't even open. I unfortunately can't give any more stars than 1.

Cannot Export Database, (individual page vise export is not practical & also broken), No Option for Local Data Backup & Restore, Cannot import data from other similar apps, 50 notes can be taken in the free app. App is very fast & supports multiple note books, but no option to Share/collaborate the notebook. Unable to export our Notebooks/Data/Database & Import data/database from our previous apps is making this as a closed system, which is the biggest Red Flag in using this app.
★★★★ Narendra KulkarnI 4/5/2026 v9.18.1
installed on my Galaxy S25+, it doesn't even open, stuck on a blue paper fold like logo. Uninstalled.
★★★★ Garett Chadney 3/29/2026 v9.18.0
I would love to be able to actually use this app but I have downloaded it twice and it still won't move beyond the logo screen. It just sits there. I've reset my phone (Samsung S24 Ultra) and nothing. If you are able to help me I'll change my rating.
★★★★ Chu “The Chu” McClintock 3/18/2026 v9.17.9
It gets stuck on the loading screen even after uninstalling and re-installing. I liked this app, but now I'm just frustrated by the lack of fixing.
★★★★ Kristin Dalley 3/3/2026
After logging on from a new device and taking notes all day, none of them saved. I've ditched other apps for less. The new policy of discontinuing support for rooted devices is also trash. Poindexters should be seen and not heard.
★★★★ John Franklin 2/28/2026 v9.17.4
Very disappointed after thinking to move from Evernote. No email feature, which is where a lot of my notes come from so totally pointless App for me unfortunately. Wanted to love it but sadly flawed.
★★★★ 이영숙 2/26/2026 v9.17.3
아니 기기인증해야 볼수 있는 이유가 무엇인지
★★★★★ Louis Mo 3/5/2026 v9.17.4
I was genuinely excited and started moving my important notes here, only to be slapped with a 'limit reached' message at just 50 notes. Why the lack of transparency? It's incredibly frustrating to let a user get into their flow and then hold their work hostage for a subscription. 50 notes is a joke. Could you just let the notes writing be free and charge for other features?
★★★★★ Fred Johnston 2/26/2026 v9.17.3
search results on a phone are impossible as they just appear in random order it seems, but they should sort by 'last updated first' down to oldest. Very frustrating, and I said this on Reddit, but I don't think the developers read or answer.
