Love the app, thank you so much for making this app and not requiring fees for any features. The best thing about FreeNotes is that it’s free to use, not having to worry about limited amounts of notebooks and features. I’ve been having to switch between Noteful and CollaNote to take notes, since CollaNotes tools aren’t as nice as the tools in Noteful, and there was limited notebooks in Noteful. Now I can finally use this app for everything, thank goodness.The features are also The design of the user interface is very nice and clean (very neat), great job on the design. I was so surprised when I first double tapped with 2 fingers and it does the undo for me automatically! Love this feature since very few note taking apps have this feature, and I rely on this so much for undoing. ***The only criticism I have is the “Fitting Figure” feature. This feature does not work very well. Sometimes when I draw squares, it snaps in to circles instead. Other times when I draw squares, it does not snap into perfect squares at all, so this feature works like 50% of the time for me. Also, it would be nice if there’s an option to resize the “snapped squares” manually with lasso tool so that the dimensions/sides of the squares can be manipulated into rectangles like in Noteful

I recently got an iPad and have been exploring various apps for taking notes. While many apps offer free downloads, I found that most of them limit functionality significantly, often pushing for in-app purchases to unlock essential features. However, I was pleasantly surprised by FreeNotes. Unlike many alternatives, it provides a comprehensive set of features entirely for free!The app's user experience is smooth, intuitive, and easy to navigate, making it a joy to use for everything from quick jotting to more detailed note-taking. I especially appreciate its clean and well-organized notebooks, which keep everything neat and accessible. FreeNotes supports a wide range of note formats without the need for expensive upgrades.Overall, it’s one of the best note-taking apps I’ve found on the iPad—simple, functional, and completely free of the typical paywall restrictions. If you're looking for a versatile, no-cost solution for your note-taking needs, FreeNotes is definitely worth checking out!

This app is absolutely astonishing, comparable if not better than paid Notes apps, and I thank the developer behind it for the fact that it is 100% free to use. This is my first app review ever, but I had to say something, because there’s a part of me that feels this app can’t even be real. I was looking for a catch. A subscription, a paywall, limited features, clunky design— NONE of these things are part of this app. Insane. The app's layout and user interfaces are very smooth. I’m hoping that the app will be around for a long time. Lastly, I wanted to request a feature that seems arbitrary, but would be really handy— splitting a notebook by bookmarks! Imagine if you had a 100 page pdf and you wanted to split it into separate smaller notebooks— I think it would be cool if you could do so according to where you've placed bookmarks. Even without this very niche feature idea, this app is amazing, and I recommend anyone who crosses upon this review to download it even if you don’t think you need it.

Do NOT trust this app. I’ve been using Freenotes for over a year. It’s been my all-time favorite app all throughout freshman year of college. I was going to donate to them the moment I graduated as a thank-you. But instead, I plan to uninstall it tonight and never look back. I opened the app to be greeted with a freemium plan shoved in my face. So now you can only have a max of 3 notebooks, making it useless for any college student. This just stings, man. I’m so disappointed. I came here seeking a refuge from the “freemium” market. It was refreshing to see an app who stood for users, especially standing next to Notability and Goodnotes. It was the best. But now there is literally no reason I shouldn’t just go back to Notability. In fact, I can’t wait to. Why would you name your app “Freenotes” and then become a paid service?? I’m so disappointed. I thought I found an app that finally an app that cared about its users. I was so wrong. As an avid user of the app, I’m just so disappointed. 3 notebooks is way too low. Most of us have 4-5 classes. So, most of us are going to uninstall the app. I know this company only wants to survive, but I truly believe this is a bad move. Please either reverse this or expand the max notebooks to a useable amount.
