Omg the adds are fn unreal. Seriously get in the way of just a few prints. Uninstalled... I will move this up to 3, because the app did work awesome. My apologies. Bad timing, printer hoops to jump thru, pdf problems etc.. However the frequency and the length of time for the adds to save 1 and print 2 was excessive. I totally get and support the need for advertising. This was too much. Being forced to wait (for adds) or pay up is not cool just for a couple of steps, for me. Thanks 4 responding.

Dear Jim, We are sorry for this, but the truth is that to continue work on this 100% free app for everyone, without any locked feature for any user, we need revenue from Ads. If you don't want to see the Ads, please consider upgrading to our Pro version for a very small fee. Thanks for your time and understanding.

I used this app yesterday with no problem. Today when I used it, I got a message stating that going forward, files could no longer be stored on the app & you'd have to make a backup. No problem. BUT, the app had already deleted all of my files before warning me of the change. I had PAID for this app. They should have given us warning BEFORE blowing away important files! No way can this developer ever be trusted again unless he can restore those files.

Hi Peter, we have just read your email and sent you a reply. We have not deleted your files, it may be that they didn't transfer correctly to the new storage location (so they are still in the old folder). Please, contact us again by email! Kind Regards

The app is ok. Though you can achieve the same thing with almost the same results with just your camera. Yeah sure, it does sometimes makes your notes (or someone elses notes)more legible but if you need to copy someone's notes via taking a photo you obviously wanna make sure their hand writing is legible in the first place, therefore making the feature quite useless. For a real cool moment your app had me with the idea that it scans the photo you take (that being notes) and then writes it down itself. This basicly relies on the whole idea you know how to take picture right as well as making sure your light source will not ruin your picture. I enjoy the concept but not really practical if I already have a camera to do so in the first opace

Dear user, Notebloc Scanner is an app that converts your device into a document scanner, using your device camera. The perspective, light conditions, etc will improve once you take a picture of any document using our app. We are sorry if the information provided led you to think that our app transforms handwritten notes into computer-based text.

What's new


NEW feature! Now you can use the Notebloc app in dark mode.
