Awesome Note 2 4+

I have been using this app for about 7 years. I use it daily. It is nice & clean but needs some basic things fixed. The updates don’t seem to be anything meaningful. They just seem to keep it working on the latest IOS version.

Chief complaints:
Basic Formatting of text in notes are not supported to the degree in Evernote’s native app. Hyperlinks is my biggest complaint. This is a basic feature of most any note taking app. PLEASE fix this. If I create a hyperlink in Evernote where the URL is embedded & shown with meaningful text, then go to this app, it only shows the text & the URL is lost if you sync any further edits in this app.

When you venture off the basic features, seems to crash frequently. Using search & clicking on a tag, then viewing notes with that tag I frequently have app crash.

Wish you could do some basic image editing within the app. Frequent add an image by taking a picture after clicking the paper clip, from there it would be nice to crop, annotate, markup image before it is inserted into note.

I really like the app, but as I require more advanced features that Evernote is starting to support, I’m getting closer to just moving to Evernote’s native app for a more consistent experience.

I first downloaded this app in January of 2010. I loved the clean simple app design, different personalization features, and how easy it was to use. It got much love over the years. Every time I needed to remember something, to save a personal photo, or to write down an on-the-go diary entry, this app was right there, my ride or die. I didn’t realize how much I relied on this app until it was recently accidentally deleted. I switched from a shared family Apple account to my own account, and forgot to bring the app with me. Side note - I found out later that it was an easy fix to import the app. But as someone who’s not tech savvy, I didn’t want to mess with it. Needless to say, I ended up regretting it. Without this app acting as my brain, my life turned into shambles LOL. I did try many many other highly-rated or more popular note apps, but they just weren’t the same. The combo of easy navigation and ultimate customization just wasn’t there. So today I finally re-installed the app, and am working on adding all my info and bringing it up to its former glory. $2.99 to get my life together? You bet! Many things have changed over the years, many other apps have come and gone. But this app is one I will never delete again. Thank You, Awesome Note! ❤️

I have loved this app for over 12 years. I’ve been using it since before I was even a teenager, and now I’m well into adulthood. It is so timelessly clean and gorgeous to look at, has a great user interface, and has a ton of fantastic, extremely useful features.

HOWEVER, since I updated my phone to iOS 14, this app has rapidly drained my battery every time I open it up. I can’t access any of my notes (thousands of them) without expecting to lose at least 10% of my battery in a 3-minute span. Every time I open this app now, my phone heats up considerably, and the battery rapidly drains. This is the only app that does this to my phone; every other app works fine. I have a feeling that the problem is that the app is outdated, as I don’t have this issue on an older iPhone, only my current newer one. It has been ages since they updated it, too, and I highly doubt they will return to update it again.

I’m crushed that I won’t be able to use this app anymore; this app has been in more than half of my life, and I have loved it so much, with so many of my journaling, experiences, and memories being contained within. Unless they update it and address the issues that newer phones may be having with running this significantly older app, then I will have to find a replacement.
