I press backup, the app says "backup created successfully" and then shows a list of other apps I can share it to. I don't see an option to put the backup on my phone's storage, or any indication of where it might be stored already. The store page says the app allows for offline backups so I assume this is a bug.

This is by far the best note taking app I have used! The UI is amazing; love the messaging-like interface. Very stable performance. I'm a huge fan of my data being local-only (not being shared or stored on servers). In its current form, this app is amazing! If this app would add folder organization (with collapse feature), attachment support for add'l file types (txt/md/PDF/etc) and a companion app for PC/Mac to view/modify the backup data, it would be absolutely perfect! 🤌

DO NOT UPDATE!!!! Just another developer putting once free features behind a pay wall. This latest update takes away the ability to use pictures in your notes. Never mentioned in the what's new description (I wonder why?) I guess we should all be grateful that this developer does not make cars, after driving our car home and parking in the garage, we would get a software update that requires paying to have access to start the engine. Look elsewhere, there are other notes apps that work.

Hi, you can still upload images if you've been a NTS user for a while. But yes, many of the features will eventually go behind a paywall. Since we don't show ads or sell user data, that's the only for the app developers to make any money. we hope you can understand.
