Ratings and reviews

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.

I loved this app until I tried using it after Android 14 update. Now the fingerprint reader pops up but doesn't register the finger (it doesn't light up or respond with the haptic). The pin doesn't worth either. What's odd is that the app appears to open only to crash. Just won't open at all. I have lots of notes in the app and I will be upset if i can't access them. Will I lose the notes if I uninstall and reinstall? I have a pixel 7 pro.

I'm really excited to see that someone else already had the same thought as me & brought this app to life. It's incredibly useful to have a memo app with an interface designed like a messaging app. You can create different threads for every topic then give it a title and a topic photo. You can type memos, leave voice memos, add pictures, edit the memos you already wrote, and lock the app using biometrics. Clean UI. Dark mode. Now would you just download it already?📲👍🏻
