About this app

Notepad is a small and fast notetaking app for making notes, memos, or just any plain text content. Features:
* simple interface that most of the users find easy to use
* no limits on note's length or number of notes (of course there's a limit to phone's storage)
* creating and editing text notes
* importing notes from txt files, saving notes as txt files
* sharing notes with other apps (e.g. sending a note by email)
* notes widget allowing to quickly create or edit notes, working like post it notes (stick a memo to home screen)
* backup function for saving and loading notes from a backup file (zip file)
* app password lock
* color themes (including dark theme)
* note categories
* automatic note saving
* undo/redo changes in notes
* lines in background, numbered lines in a note
* technical support
* search function that can quickly find text in notes
* unlock app with biometrics (e.g. fingerprint or face recognition)

It may be obvious, but notes in the app can be used in many ways. For example as a to do list to increase productivity. A sort of digital planner to store shopping list or to organize the day. Notes can be put on the home screen as reminders. Each task could be stored in a seperate note or one big todo note could be used.

** Important **
Please remember to make a backup copy of notes before formatting a phone or buying a new phone. Since the 1.7.0 version the app will also use phone's device copy, if it's turned on in the device's and the app's settings.

* Why do I advise to not install the app on an SD card?
I follow the official advice to block installing on an SD card apps that use widgets. This app uses widgets, which are like icons for the notes, and can be placed on a phone's home screen (for example).

If you have any additional questions, just contact me by email: notepad.free@outlook.com .

Thank you.

Best Notepad app hands down. Simple and effective. Even has a ton of features that I've never bothered to look into over the last few years. I'll be categorizing and coloring my notes soon :) Wish there was an option to purchase to disable ads, just to support the developer. I don't mind the ads though, as they're very unintrusive. I also just discovered there is an option to watch a short video and disable ads for 10 days for free. Neat!

I have used this app for probably 5+ years. I was looking for a simple notepad to keep work and to-do list. This app.is exactly what I needed. Very happy with it, the only mildly annoying thing is the adds, but they keep it very small and unintrusive. I just discovered that you can export your notes in .txt file so you can move them to your PC or another phone.

I like the notepad app but having attempted on no less than 3 occasions to stop seeing adds by viewing a video I still have ADDS! I have watched the videos to their conclusion and when the x appears, supposedly allowing me to close the video, it won't close. I tried numerous times to close it by clicking the x but it just sits there with a big INSTALL button waiting to be pressed. I hit my back button and am told that the video was interrupted try again later. NO! I will find another notepad ap.
