To add a little bit more functions and templates
Started using this app a month ago. It was a great experience. I like the user interface and the visibility of it.
However, it can be greater if it can incorporate AI functions and lots of templates functions just like Notion. Then this will be unbeatable.
The recording can be improved though. Replay does not sound clear and crisp and it has echos and unclear. I would like to suggest to add a transcribing recorder as well. But also to remain the audio recorder. That is important to keep as sometimes it is nice to replay back audio messages.
Amazing app but there are some problems
This is app is fantastic. I've been keeping track of what I do during the lockdown and U thought that it might be nice to look back at this journal one day. The problem is, past these few days, I wasn't able to open the app. It's not working. I can't get through. After I key in the password, it loads forever. I tried waiting for more than 10 minutes. I've checked my internet connection, checked for any updates,etc. Please fix this problem immediately! Pls suggest ways to help too!
