Ratings and Reviews
My go-to-first app!
This app definitely fills the niche of being the app to go to when you want to jot down a quick note for later, or a pressing thought that you should put in your reminders list, or notes list, or telephone conversation details, before you forget them. The list is endless. The problem is that to put the idea in the right place means you have to think about what the right place is, and then you have lost the thought or information. This app can be set up to open at a new note every time. You go to the app, you capture the idea, you do something with the information later when you have some time to sort it out. The app is very integrated with everything else, so within the app you can set up some amazing automatic features, or you can use tags to organise info, or you can automate email, messaging, etc. Have a look for yourself. But for me, I could not live without this now.
My most used app (by times per day)
I use Drafts as the original entry point for most everything I do. With its myriad number of actions there is little it can't do to help me keep track of daily events. This is my goto app to make notes, draft emails (no more oops!, "shouldn't have sent that", make date/time stamped notes (with textExpander), record my spending on the fly and so many other numerous things I don't remember. Oh yes, and to 'draft' this review.
A previous review criticised the move to a subscription model in a somewhat negative manner. While I empathise with the pain of numerous subscriptions adding up to exorbitant amounts each month it does cause you to use / pay for only those who return value for money. Drafts is one such app, the payment is easily justifiable in my opinion if it keeps the developer supporting the self and therefore the app going forward.
A definite 5 star app in my book.

Feel ripped off
Draft 4 is a fully featured application that was fully paid for and now looks like at will no longer get updates. The update to Draft 5 has had the power features of Draft 4 ripped out and now the developer demands an exorbitant subscription fee to reintroduce them back into the app. As an individual who has already paid for the original app, I feel exploited and disappointed in the direction being adopted.
Why, oh why didn’t the developer add the new features that were introduced, i.e. dark mode and alike as an in-app purchase instead of removing previously existing functionality. I for one will not or never pay the requested amount as it’s too expensive.
Please remember the best customer you have is the one you already had - very, very disappointing.......
