I'm trying the free version on an android. It crashes when I try to set a reminder. It doesn't tell you a function is premium until you try it. Since I don't remember the limits that's frustrating. They need to be indicated some way. One I didn't realize right away from the documentation was no photos. One thing I miss about Google Keep is being able to see the content without opening the note.

I use this every day for my business notes, research, and journaling. End to end encryption is why I tried it in the first place. I'll keep using it as long as it has the priority goal of privacy. I use the headers, check boxes, numbered and bullited lists, callouts, web links, internal links, and picture import. It has good file organization and search. It has good export options.

VERY good notes app. Notesnook has a better feature set than anything else out there for basic note taking and synching across devices. Better than OneNote by miles. Feature set is strong, but missing some basic editing & features I would like (indenting, locking/unlocking an entire Notebook with one PW/Biometric). I would pay to get additional features (AppLock, Images) but the subscription price for those is way too high (almost $6/mo.) I would love to see a one time purchase, or $1/month.
