About this app

Dark note is totally free. There are no features behind a paywall.

Dark note is also ad-free so you can enjoy note-taking without getting annoyed by bombardments of weird and dumb ads. If you want to support Dark Note, buy me some coffee by going to the settings page and clicking on the cool-looking coffee cup.

Dark note makes it easy to add notes and checklists. Its design is very easy on the eyes and is also easy to use.

Taking a Note
The only limit for the note length is the capacity of your device storage. Once a note is created, any edits will be saved letter by letter. Notes can be archived, shared, locked, exported, and much more.

Making a Checklist
You can add as many items as you want. List items can be easily edited or deleted by clicking on the edit icon. Each item can be checked off with a simple click in which that item is striked-through and once all items have been checked off, the title will also be striked-through marking completion.

great app, I've been trying it for a month now and it's definitely feature rich. I had some concerns and emailed the creators and they got back to me pretty fast , this surprises me knowing this is not a paid app. I've been trying to reorganize using a system I just learned about called: P.A.R.A. I should say, in my 1 month trying it I found no bugs and I didn't get to try every feature. but I have 3 cons/missing features. 1- no picture placement 2- no folder inside folder 3- no FAQ I am a fan

Thanks for taking the time to write a review and provide feedback! I will add a FAQ and add ability to include images in note editor (I am 80% done with this, expecting to release by Feb 19 at the latest). Cheers!

Versatile and customizable. This app is easy to use. You can change titles, customize title and font colors. The notes can be different colors. You can make backups of your notes. You can even create folders to put various notes in. I've been using ColorNote for years and decided to try this app as an alternative because I have was having problems with ColorNote working with my keyboard on my new phone. I'd say the two apps are similar without the keyboard problem.

Hello Spence, thanks for the review. I actually based my app on ColorNote and BlackNote, so that is why you feel they are similar. I was also a ColorNote user, but I did not like how outdated the user interface was, so that is one of the main reasons why I made this app. Anyways, thanks for taking the time to write a review, much appreciated!

Probably the best notes app in the current store. One reason, functioning search feature. I used Google Keeps beforehand and was very frustrated at how the company known for it search engine doesn't have a Ctrl + F on it's app. Aside from that, it's very functional packed with backup feature as well. Though I do hope that the text sizing is a bit expanded. I do have notes designed with smaller font that took up much more space here with no way to shrink them (already at smallest font).

Hi Kevin, thanks for you review and the kind words. A lot of time was spent on this app in order to cultivate a great user experience. I take reviews seriously and I implement a lot user feedback. Email ak.apps.2019@gmail.com for questions or feedback. Edit: Smallest font can be even smaller now, try it out in version 13.7!
