Lock Screen Notes

About this app

With this app you can easily create notes that stick around for later!
Designed for you to be able to create and manage notes quickly without many interruptions. Notes are supposed to be small and not kept for very long as they are supposed to be used for reflections and 'keep for later' ideas, like grocery lists or anything that you need to be reminded of instantly.

Optimized to be quick and efficient so that you can write down your ideas and notes in less that 2 seconds and only one tap of a button!
Once created, a note will stick around and be instantly displayed on your lock screen as a notification.

Notes and the ways they are displayed are highly customization. You can decide if they are grouped together and displayed as a single notification or separate. You can also set if they are always displayed prominently or more subtle. (depends on the type of device).

This App is free and without any ads or tracking! This will not change in the future! Besides that, it is open source and the source code is publicly available on GitHub:
https://github.com/NilsFo/LockScreenNotes

Permissions explained:
-Run on startup: To display the notifications once you restart the device
-External storage: To read / write backups

Ratings and reviews

Exactly what I was looking for. I use it for grocery shopping listing items in separate notes. It's so useful to easily check off each item on the lock screen. They can also be unchecked by touching the icon in the list in main screen of the app. It's nice that they are hidden until I swipe down. Then when I'm done I delete all the items at once.

Fantastic simplicity. Just what is required. But, the "disable note" feature doesn't make sense, sinse there is no enable note function. I wanted to find out what the disable button did, and then all my notes for tomorrow are disabled and can't be brought back to life. It could be useful to be able to turn notes off and on without deleting them, but as it is now, there is no way to get back a disabled note. Please fix and we'll be friends for life. :)

This was my goto notes app until it started persistent nagging about notification permissions. The notifications would be tolerable if I could dismiss them, but that's not possible. Now, I have 10+ notes that I'll copy/paste into another notes app before I uninstall Lock Screen Notes. It was great for a while, but if I wanted persistent nagging, I would have stayed married.
