So far the app is amazing, it has everything including locking notes, but my suggestion would be an option where locked notes not being fully blurred out when locked. Like apple’s notes where the content of the note is hidden when locked, but the title still shows, at least if there are many different locked notes, it is easy to differentiate which note is which. So either removing the title blur and having an option to either blur everything for total privacy or blurring the content only
I'd say the best all around notebook app
Farhan93
I've used so many. I just needed a simple clean notebook that has a good organisation system that works and this one has it. Sometimes we just need to take a quick note, maybe record a voice note and sync it across devices, but most apps just don't have it. Its either too heavy or too expensive. This app has it all and more. Works smooth and solid. Notebook app, you have my full support 👍🏼💯

I can also organise my brain dumps, ideas and tasks into different categories, which really helps me stay productive and easily find my past ideas.Just one small request: please add options to bold and strikethrough words in the to-do list.Love this app. Thumbs up! 👍

Voice recording in the background please
Sayed bilal
I would like to start off by saying that this is app is extremely efficient and well built, the design is amazing. Just one little thing bugs me when i try to voice record lectures in class and the screen turns off, so does the recording. I’d appreciate some improvement regarding this; thanks.
Developer Response
We really appreciate your positive review. Background recording when locked will be provided in the future updates of the app so you can keep the audio played/recorded without any hassles.
