About this app

Organize your notes and sort them into any number of folders and subfolders. Create checklists or add your own pictures.
It's also great as a journal app.

With the newest update we have made the app even better:

Change creation date:
You can now flexibly adjust the creation date of your notes, perfect for better organization.

Sorting by creation date:
Notes can now be sorted not only by the modification date, but also by the creation date.

Customizable date display:
Choose whether you want to display the creation date or the modification date in your notes.

These new features make the app ideal for use as a diary or journal - and some of our users are already using it for exactly that!

They were very happy about the update because it makes capturing and browsing through memories even easier.

Try it out and enjoy even more flexible and clearer note management!

I've spent way too long looking for a good note taking app, and it's crazy how hard it is to find simple customization features. Folino has a lot of great features and the ability to create folders and categorize everything is awesome. On top of that, you can pay for it once and actually buy access to full features instead of subscribing forever, and if you don't, the free version is still a lot better than anything else out there. Great job to the creator, and thanks for making this!

Formatting no longer works. I've had it for multiple years and formatting worked correctly. Now if I set a formatting other than the default it will not stay set. For example, if I turn on bold, it looks like it turns on, but as soon as I type a letter it is off. I can select something that's already typed and change it to bold, but this is very user unfriendly. If I set a size other than default, it stays set for a single line only, then changes back to default.

Folino allows folders to be created, and I can save the notes in a variety of locations using export and share. It has one font, but it can be resized wherever in the note I want to make font larger or smaller. I can bold, italicize, underline wherever I want, and can search and replace words. There's no text alignment or indent, but for notes it's a fairly minor concern. It allows synching files between different devices! Overall it's a well designed and useful app. Thank you!
