Ratings and reviews

Fast, has a nice and simple UI with good customization. Honestly fantastic for short notes and checklists. The only problem is that if you accidentally delete some text, there isn't an undo button so unless you have a backup, that text gone. Probably not a huge problem if you do short notes, maybe will be if you do long notes or edit a bunch.

Autosave barely works. I love this note app. Simple interface and no ads. But I've lost notes several times now. I edit my notes, and when I come back to the app a couple hours later, my notes appear as they were before I edited them. Frustrating! I'm gonna need to use a different app since this is a critical bug.

Favorite note taking app to just jot something down real quick. It is a minimalist note taking app, as it says on the tin, so don't expect a bunch of bells and whistles. That said, I do wish for the ability to sort notes by date modified and such and I'm rather surprised it doesn't have such a feature. It only has one default sort mode and that's by date created.
