Ratings and Reviews
great cool features
text on mac needs work. Cannot select a word or a sentence etc. Def MAC needs work. And syncing is still buggy
added two more stars. Seems to be syncing better and working better with other devices.
Wish list:
Also make a way to sync folders. Notes scattered all over the place are a mess.
Grateful for desktop companion
The main reason I wanted this is to access and edit my notes from my iPad without having to export them as pdf because I don’t like the thought of the zoomnotes file format being trapped in my iPad. So I’m very grateful for this. I do not need it syncing and haven’t tried that. (I already have OneNote for the notes that I keep synced between devices; also Joplin, the Evernote replacement. ZoomNotes is for completely different use.) It is great that older Mac OS and older iOS are supported because not everyone can afford to update their devices, and the old ones still work perfectly. Also, I like the appearance of the UI. It has a simple charm. I did not have trouble figuring out the UI and I like that the iPad and desktop versions are so similar. The only thing that stumped me is the layerd “sub-pages” becasue I had trouble figuring out how to move or delete them, and figuring out when I was writing on a sub note or the paper beneath it. But it is a good idea, and very unique. It is nice when you need to go back and add to your notes while still keeping things neat. Overall I appreciate Zoomnote and the great support on the website.
Ultimately not what I need or expected
I'm intrigued by Zoomnotes' ability to display Google/Apple calendar events and Apple reminders. I bought this desktop companion app so that I could do the bulk of that set-up work on the computer and then do minor updates/upkeep on my iPad, but it hasn't been working that way for me.
* The desktop app frequently displays pages incorrectly, showing a zoomed in/cropped version of a page instead of the full page when I've done nothing to zoom or crop. Quitting the app and then opening it again sometimes but not always fixes this problem.
* Syncing between my computer and ipad is unbearably slow.
* The interface is different enough between the ipad and desktop versions that things get really confusing. I figure out how to do something on the ipad and then spend another twenty minutes trying to figure out how to do the exact same thing on the desktop.
My computer is from 2019, so I'm willing to believe that some of the technical issues I'm having are from running an older machine. Still, I have the machine I have, and the app is functionally useless for me.
