Notepad+: Note Taking App for Negative User Reviews

Pretty bad toolsI have been looking for a free note taking app for quite some time to help me with school and revision. I have just settled on Procreate because I haven’t found anything that can help me at the moment and even though I bought procreate I don't want to buy any apps. This has been a really tricky search and this app hasn’t helped at all. I looked at the average rating and the amount of downloads and I thought this was the one. I was wrong. This app has awful tools and you have to pay to upgrade to the better version which is madness. Overall its pretty bad and seems like a waste of money to me. Sorry just useless..Version: 3.13

Too many really frustrating addsI only tried the free version and I liked it BUT annoying flashy adds led me to delete..Version: 3.13

Good, but could be better.In my work I get a lot of PDF floor plan layouts which I like to draw on and make notes. £20 Seems a lot for an App that is still sticky in Area, when you make several lines for example it is frustrating trying to highlight & alter or delete them if required. I would like to be able to use 1 app for my needs...This is close..Version: 3.13

Heck noNot no, but he** no. Screen does not keep up with actual pen stroke speed. Lags behind like an animation. It’s not my device. The native app doesn’t have this problem. The eraser doesn’t erase the entire stroke. It only erases what it touches, like a real eraser. Not efficient for taking notes. The palm rejection is better than nothing, but that’s the extent of positive things to say about it. It doesn’t have any kind of smart sensing like Samsung Note. Instead, you have to slide a screen up and down over the area where your hand will rest. The big no, however, is that it pops up full screen ads ..... frequently ... and won’t let you close them for several seconds. They obviously care more about the money than customer experience. The paid version may be great, but I’m not sticking around to find out..Version: 3.13

Not successful on my iPad Pro...I imported a .pdf document into this app to complete it in handwriting. There was such a lag on the writing, it was not usable. I tried to cross the cross on letter H and it just wouldn't do it. Don't know why it had such a lag. I used other notebook software I had and completed it without a concern...perfect. Delete for me I guess. Why it is like this I don't know, as others seem happy enough with it. The paid version is way expensive..Version: 3.4

Lacking featuresLacking like ruler, no ability to create a straight line. Got potential but disappointed to say the least..Version: 3.13

Horrible!You can’t function because of pop-up ads. I was trying to explore it but deleted it 5 minutes after installing because the pop-ups were too annoying Developer suggests purchasing the full version... that might be an option if I could have tested it to see if it was worth purchasing! You can’t even get to that point because the ads are so overwhelming. I respect the developer taking the time to respond but their proposed solution doesn’t make sense to me. Ideally, they could limit ads for the first 48 hours or something comparable... just food for thought!.Version: 3.11

Didn’t work for meTried to upgrade to get rid of pop ups but could even press upgrade because adverts in the way. DELETED..Version: 3.11

ReviewThis app is okay but maybe make it do more thing with photos that we import.Version: 3.11

Too many addsGreat app if you can get past the never ending adds. I lost interest very quickly.Version: 3.11

AddsAdds and adds 2020=02-17 - not a minor thing for me, since I went with Notability... sorry..Version: 3.13

Can't save to PDF or files as advertised.The description of this app mentions multiple ways to save a notebook. NONE of the saving methods such as save to pdf, files, or photos are available on the free version. I might have upgraded to Pro on the assumption that save would work,but there's no indication if spending $20 would fix it. Also, the scrolling is... well, there is none. So when you use Myscript, you can't scroll to the part of the page you want to edit. The ads are frequent, and I might have upgraded to get rid of those, but another reviewer still gets ads for the author's other products! If all that wasn't bad enough, you can only create 2 notebooks with the free version. There is nothing whatsoever to recommend this product. TRY THE FREE NOTE APP FROM APPLE. It does a lot of the same things, with better scrolling. You can't draw on photos with Apple's version but at least it has no ads and you can save your work to import into another app or service..Version: 3.11

Ads every 10 seconds!!!First 5 mins was great then the ads wouldn’t stop, every 5 seconds another one pops up! Can’t actually use the app now!.Version: 3.11

Pen support sucksTotal crappy app! Wish to get my money back. Pure garbage. Notability is much better.Version: 3.13

No Apple Pencil SupportDid not recognize the Apple Pencil 2 at all. All other apps (notes, penultimate, bamboo paper, one note, pages) have no issues. Had to reinstall and reboot and it finally worked. Palm protection is an area on the screen that won’t allow writing. No handwriting recognition. Not as smooth as other apps that work for free. Ads are annoying. No listing in the app of what paid version adds (just says more...)..Version: 3.13

AnnoyingWhat is the point of a notepad on a tablet that doesn’t automatically take you onto a second page when you need one? Waste of space. Just glad I didn’t pay to upgrade to the full version before I tried it out..Version: 3.12

Good but ....This app is amazing it’s soo useful for letters and presentations but I feel like with the new update the price is a bit over because I have seen other apps and they don’t have a price like this one for the extras but over all the app is really good 😉😉👍🏻.Version: 3.13

Doesn’t saveIt NEVER saves my work this has happened nearly 5 times now when it hasn't saved,I get to nearly finishing my work and it just crashes and DOES NOT SAVE ITS SO ANNOYING😤😡🤬.Version: 3.13

It’s good but...When I want to print stuff I turned my printer on then I pressed print in the app.So it said I had to select a printer.So I pressed it then waited but then is said no air drop printers!Even though I turned on the printer!It worked before!I did all over again but it still said the same thing!Can you please tell me why this is happening?.Version: 3.13

Unstable and quite intrusive adsInstalled on the iPad Pro and within first 5-10 minutes has crashed 3 times already. Ads are also quite intrusive. I don’t mind ads such as the one in the header as it’s understandable for a free app, but full screen popover ads happen very frequently which completely covers your screen, which is incredibly disruptive for a note taking app..Version: 3.13

Interferences publicitairesDes publicités s’invitent en plein travail. S’ajoutent comme une note supplémentaire qu’il est impossible de supprimer. Intrusion de google. Application supprimée. Amusez vous avec votre application si vous voulez moi je supprime..Version: 3.13

First Screen Was I citing me to a $ UpgradeI went through the first, easy to understand tutorial or overview so proceeded to the next page...to me, the first page. And what pops up? A full page notice that to get all the features I am welcome to spend money etc. Etc. Etc. You would have thought they would let you discover a few things without starting out selling you on the upgrade..Version: 3.11

Promising, but inking slow and low qualityGot as far as making the first letter with the Apple Pencil and didn't get any further. Lag with the pencil input, and zooming in reveals low resolution inking. These have to be corrected before the app can be considr3 a viable alternative to others. Sorry :(.Version: 3.11

Notepad+ ProThis app is barely functional and a waste of time. It comes with ads, which it didn’t when I first downloaded the app. Now the developer want $27 USD to get of the ads and add a few coloured pencils! I don’t have an issue with people making a but an add version of a core app just pisses off. I will not pay for an upgrade that does little more than gets rid of the ads. There are plenty of ads free writing apps out their, which are far superior to this one and it’s Pro companion. Don’t waste you money on this C grade app..Version: 3.11

Clunky and HIGHLY annoying App! ZERO stars.The designers for this app spent 98% of their time scheming annoying ways to upsell you to buy their PRO edition. It is a lame, useless, clunky app that's designed to lure you in and tediously annoy you to pay more money to upgrade. If you want to be continuously bugged by flashing gifs of spinning roulette wheels and annoying sounds while you are trying to create a simple business document, THIS is app is for you! A HUGE fail! I deleted it and felt great..Version: 3.8

10 minute use -crashed twice alreadyI just downloaded the free version to see if I liked it. It is easy to use, but in only 10 minutes, it's now crashed twice. Each time I lost my latest changes and had to restart and then decline again the additional purchase version..Version: 3.13

Suitable for a non class settingI am in nursing school and cannot afford to miss anything said by my instructor and with pop-up adds sometimes taking 30 seconds to complete I had to delete the app. I have an Apple Pencil that I use for my IPad and sometimes when I would set my hand down on the pad the app would be very confused on whether to be directed to my Apple Pencil or my hand/knuckle..Version: 3.13

This is the worst note pad you will ever try in your lifeIt doesn’t let you see any of the things you are typing, there are SO MANY DAMN ADDS FOR A STUPID APP LIKE A NOTEPAD( Money hungry as hell), They don’t let you change any of the things you wrote previously so you will need to delete the whole part that you wrote after the thing you wanted to change to actually change it. And sometimes it won’t let you type. This is just SO FRIKIN BAD!.Version: 3.13

Make it betterIt’s good but may I suggest not putting dotted lines while I type..Version: 3.13

Poor app, waste of timeYou can only have 3 notes unless you upgrade to the purchased version. Ads continually pop up when navigating between different notes and switching between tools. Cumbersome to use, unrefined interface, intrusive ads..Version: 3.13

MehThis app is OK. I can easily write down the problems I have for math class or whatever but it’s so hard to get things done and focus with all the ads. Like, I just erase a little mark and a ad pops up. The ads are the only problem for me. If there were a lot less ads then I would rate this app higher than 3 stars. That’s all :).Version: 3.13

Good but can improveThis is a good app but it is lacking a few things eg: lasso tool colours sizes more platforms and to be able to chose a handwriting posture so some one can put there hand or stylus on it.Version: 3.13

Not impressedAdvertises use of “ tons of templates for work and fun” gives you five colours of plain lined paper, if you want the templates, you have to pay 30 dollars for the pro version. Deleted immediately..Version: 3.13

Great but badExcellent premise but very buggy on my iPad 6 and advertisements make the bugging worse and take away from the free version's experience. It’s the very first time I experience any king of functional issues using this iPad at all. Other then that I do appreciate that you can design a ‘cover’ (the front page is the cover). The zoom in version of writing is an excellent idea but it makes it hard to use when it skips 3 lines at a time instead of 1 and doesn’t always skip forward with consistency making this what would otherwise be an advantage. Too bad it had to be a disadvantage. On to something nonetheless... Potential: 5 stars Application: 2 stars.Version: 3.13

Storage hogI paid for the pro version and have found the app very useful for the last few years, but it is now taking up 3.47 gigabytes of storage on my iPad, even though I have deleted all but six brief handwritten documents. I keep deleting stuff and it doesn’t get any smaller. In fact I erased part of a document and it got a bit bigger..Version: 3.13

Good but I think it could be betterHi! I enjoy this app, but the amount of ads I am getting are insane. I understand that you are trying to get people to upgrade to Pro, and I’m good with that. The app is getting really hard to use. Again, I am okay with the ads, but please can there be less? For a student trying to World on homework, this is really not ideal. Thank you for the trouble..Version: 3.13

Give me a chance to test out please.I know it’s free but when you throw three ads at me, two of which are pop ups in the first minute after I install app and then ask me to rate it, you get one star. From screenshots and developer description, it looks like this may be good app but I’m trying to evaluate if I want to purchase PRO app. I’m now so turned off after a couple minutes in app and i’m sure my overall rating will be higher once i actually try it but they wanted my opinion right now and so here it is..Version: 3.11

Forcing me to get a game I hateI got this app, didn’t even really get to try it before “Pearls” whatever pops up and no x is available. I was basically forced to download that stupid game before I could even get close to back to the app. I got to see ONE aspect of the app before that stupid game came up and I couldn’t close it. I’ve played that game before and I hate it! If you’re going to force me to watch a video before I can even try your app at least let us close it. I understand that the ads help pay for the app, it’s a matter of being forced to download the game app. There was no “x” out option. That is where the issue is. I have no desire to have a game I hate..Version: 3.11

UselessI did not know what to do when I opened it. I pressed for whatever paper, which appeared - then what???.Version: 3.13

FeedbackLike the ease of it, practical. Don't appreciate the adds though, too intrusive..Version: 3.8

Interrupting ads deter trying out appI was evaluating several notetaking apps on a trial basis, and the frequency and disruptive ads on Notepad would not allow for a decent trial. Completely frustrating and maddening to use. I ended buying other note apps which did not muck up the trial app with interrupting ads. It’s one thing to add ads to your app to frame your app; it’s another to put the ads where they actually interfere with use. LAME. Uninstalled..Version: 3.11

Very limited basic version of the appAs there is no option to upgrade from the basic version to the pro version, I decided to try out the features available on the basic app before considering the pro version. Have to admit the basic version has even less features than Apple’s built in Notes app. No hand writing to text conversion feature at all. Struggled with adding and modifying shapes, when the first shape is drawn and a second shape is added, its nearly impossible to select the first shape to modify it. Limited to 2 documents on the basic version? That’s forcing users to upgrade to the pro version even if they only need the basic functionality. Had a look at the pro version page on the App Store and the first thing I noticed was the last update to the app being 3years ago? Let’s me to believe the developers are not updating the app with Apple’s latest security bugs or features added to OS updates. Had a look at the developer’s website and couldn’t even find a roadmap for future features being planned for the app. Seems to be mainly focused on advertising other apps made by the developers. Will unfortunately not be looking at the possibility of purchasing this app in the future as it has not managed to keep me interested in upcoming features or addressing current user frustrations. Maybe when a roadmap for additional development on the app becomes available I will be back to maybe give this app a second chance..Version: 3.13

Does not wokSounds a good idea but every time I try to read page 1 it shuts down..Version: 3.9

Free appI like the free program an would like the full version but not interested in paying that much for it.Version: 3.8

Bein’ honest here, super disappointed.The tools are easy to use and all, but why do we only get 3? I appreciate the review that says for 10, good idea, I mean, I never would have thought of that, but why can’t we have more than 3 and have to pay for more? It’s like your a money hog, what is this all about!? Very very dissapointed with this app. 0 stars recommended..Version: 3.13

It is okI think that is a great game it is that I have a nock off apple pen and it will not wright or it will cover the whole screen in what color I am using. Also you cannot upload it. If you look at the game pictures it shows a lot more colors than you get. I like the game because you can use snaps highlight and there is a typing tool. I think that this game could be improved..Version: 3.13

Don’t botherWhen you get the free version, you can only have 2 notebooks, you can’t rest your palm and it’s just not good. I don’t recommend!.Version: 3.13

Deceiving. It’s not free at allI’m reporting to Apple..Version: 3.13

Free version virtually unusableDon’t install this app unless you are prepared to upgrade it. It is basically an ad server, and when it is not displaying ads, it creates ad pages in your notebook, and continuously asks you if you want to upgrade. I deleted it after less than 10 minutes, it was so frustrating..Version: 3.13

DeceptionNo indication in app description here in App Store that, once installed, you would need to install a DIFFERENT version of the app for $20.99 to get all features. Technically, it's not an in-app purchase. So, they can sneak it by. Don't bother downloading this app..Version: 3.9

Not completely familiar!The first time ever, and you ask for a review. Well limited experience is the result of not finding It easy open , and use so a better time to ask me is when I have more practice. The app would be better if tutorial look up program like you tube was available!.Version: 3.11

If you like ads..I didn’t try it and why not you ask. Why because an ad popped up before I could even look at the program. To frustrating trying to work around so many ads so soon. Not worth the bother..Version: 3.13

To many adsThere are toooo many ads and the selection of pens are too less. Plus there are no fill button..Version: 3.13

Ads & Glitches galoreI got this app to take notes for my studying. After using it for a few days I needed to get my notes out and this app deleted ASAP. The app would ask me at least twice a day if I wanted to upgrade to the paid version, no thank you! Then, as if they were punishing me for not purchasing the upgrade, I’d get ad pop ups every minute! Making it impossible to take notes. Also, my iPad would glitch every time I had the app open! Now that I’ve deleted it, no glitches..Version: 3.13

This app doesn't sell itselfI think the point of this fake free app is so you buy the expensive $30 app. But this version is nothing but advertising and pop-ups that sell more fake free apps that actually are more expensive than they seem to be worth. This app seems to only have the same features that other less costly paid apps have. So why spend double money when you can get the same features elsewhere for less than half price? This free version does not answer this question for me so am a bit disappointed..Version: 3.12

The worst note taking app everThe worst note taking app ever. Even pops out ads when u taking note..Version: 3.13

Free lol!First thing that happens is a pop up appears showing the limitations and asking you to upgrade. Don’t you just hate this misleading descriptions..Version: 3.12

Get OneNote instead.If you have OneNote this will App annoy you. That is because it is terrible compared to OneNote. Maybe the $30 version is decent but don’t do that to yourself.Version: 3.11

:((It kept crashing and all the notes that i wrote disappeared.Version: 3.13

Greedy company with good appsThis app has all the functionality and simple to use. But ... It has 'in-house' ads till the cows come home. They don't tell you in the 'how good it is' section that the free version can only contain three, that's right, only 3 PDFs. Upgrade to get more. GREED! If I was happy I might upgrade. Did they make me happy? Haha.Version: 3.3

Data Mining?Serious security and privacy concerns..Version: 3.12

Crashes all the time!!I got this app to to help me with my small businesses, and it crashes all the time... I understand there will be ads but why so many?!? At first I was considering buying the pro version but if the free app crashes this much I’m not going to pay $20 for the pro version to crash on me as well. This is a major downer I wish you guys would fix it because if you do I would consider paying for it but until you fix the free app I will not pay for the pro app it’s self.... why waste money... PLEASE FIX!!!! So people can use what they download. Thank you... have a good day..Version: 3.11

Spam ads within seconds of openingIt would be good to take a look around the app before being hit with ads almost immediately after opening for the first time. Deleted the app within about a minute of opening. Annoying..Version: 3.9

Cannot RecommendFor the short amount of time I have had this app (a day), I have experienced way too many frustrating errors. The biggest problem I had with this app was the fact that it crashed four times today. I downloaded this app just to write my math test and I lost my work for four problems because of this. This was made even more infuriating by the fact that the problems each required a page worth of work. Another small bug is the amount of times my hands have made marks on my work even though I am using an apple pencil. As soon as I finish this test, I will be deleting the app..Version: 3.13

Not worth the moneyNo update and also there is a hole near middle not possible to write on that section ..Version: 3.13

TERRIBLE!!This app offers NOTHING helpful to aid in studying. The app was not at all what I was looking for and I am kicking myself for spending $20 (which is a good deal of money when you are a student) on this app. There are so many different note apps that are better, AND drastically less expensive. There is no way to copy and paste, no way to upload documents nor pictures except when trying to upload a picture from your own photos app. I would not recommend this app at all and I am currently trying to search how I can get my money back..Version: 3.13

This is coolThe controls kinda suck ngl they really need to work on this app it’s so caca that it’s bigger than my gran. Anyways this app is good if u like simple things but I’m complex like the map on evade it’s good ig. for beginners. you can’t make multiple texts so it’s annoying but um I like the emojis/ annotations. -andrew Tate and some other really cool people. Sailor moon solos ur life btw..Version: 3.13

Poor introduction to the appI opened the app hoping to experiment with its features and find out if it was right for me, but there was so much advertising and so many pop-ups that I lost patience before I could properly try it out. The advertising starts when you're trying to read the welcome screens, delays you from opening the example note, and a video popped up before I could attempt to create a note of my own. I deleted the app instead of waiting for it to finish. I certainly won't pay $23 for the full version when I can't properly try the app first..Version: 3.9

Ok but not greatWhen I got this app I thought it would have all the colors like on the pictures but it didn’t and that made me sad because I’m an artist and I thought it would be great for me so i can erase my mistakes unlike starting all the way over on a canvas but it only had basic colors..Version: 3.12

Not worth the priceThe Pro version is $20 and doesn’t do anything different that the $0-$10 versions of note apps. This app needs rulers, and the ability to rotate text boxes. I like the paper choices. The app works fine for me, but it is a little sluggish on my iPad Pro. It is slow to respond and makes awkward lines sometimes if my hand is near the tablet. The lag time between the stylus and when the mark is put down is frustrating. The PDF edit works pretty well, except it is difficult to put text exactly where you want it and you can’t rotate text..Version: 3.11

Doesn’t workTry to add a line or a circle or other shape inside a simple rectangle to create a simple design, but nothing happens. No instructions. Can only assume it’s bait to make you pay $30 for the pro version..Version: 3.13

Good..but annoying and frustrating...This app at the start included something that told me how to use this app. It did help. When I got the new page open, the usual portrait, colour, but when I used the typing ( T ) and I then used my pencil to take notes, I couldn’t open that same box that I was typing in so I could fix any mistakes. So could you please fix that. Also another thing, the redo and undo button does not work what so ever. I have tried and tried. But it doesn’t work. I know there is a rubber, but I usually use the redo and undo button, so could please fix that, thanks for your time in reading this, have a good one. Cheers..Version: 3.13

Add WinnerThe most adds in an app on the Apple Store goes to this app. Very intrusive, generally it forces you to upgrade as fast as possible without testing the features. In ya face advertisement, just like going to a rugby game in Australia..Version: 3.9

Just a suggestion, don’t have to do it if you don’t like it :)This app is great, it’s good for taking down notes of ideas. But maybe allow users to have more time before having to pay, maybe give them 10 free notes on the app before having to take the subscription? Just to let them get the hang of it and let them have a set decision when they have to pay. Sorry if this wasted your time, have a good day :D.Version: 3.13

Poorly ExecutedThis app has a lot of good ideas, but executed them very poorly. It’s literally a knockoff Notability. The ads make it impossible to focus, the app isn’t visually appealing, and the write function is very glitchy. Adding more options for customizing paper would be nice, as well as just making the whole thing run much more smoothly, because it’s very choppy now. The thing that irks me the most (besides the ads you have to fix those ads) is the lack of a good UX scheme. A UX scheme is the User Experience, and this app just wasn’t appealing at all. Users can overlook small faults with an app if it looks good, but this app just looks... terrible. There’s no color, the paper options are bland and uncustomizable, and the blue-white scheme just isn’t working. Whoever made this app needs to find someone who’s good at visual design..Version: 3.13

Too many advertsI’ve had this for a while and found it handy. I’ve not used it recently and coming back to it find it almost unusable due to the grammerly app advert popping up all the time. Also you can’t place the cursor back into the text to make alterations. Yes I know I can pay to remove the ads, but if you want me to buy the app, I need to have a decent trial. Removing and looking for something else..Version: 3.13

BadUgly and gross hate it.Version: 3.11

They really want you to buy itGoogle keep is better and free and got no ads. They ask 27.99 $ for this tiny note taking apps..Version: 3.13

Don’t waste your time with thisThis app only lets you make two documents after that you have to pay for an upgrade. This isn’t very helpful for student as they do want to play monthly for a subscription.Version: 3.13

Its great but can improveI honestly love this note taking app but the thing is the free version only lets me do 2 books and I don't want to pay 20 dollars just to get more books and pen colors...... I really don't think it's worth TwEnTy dollars just to get more books and pen colors with 20 dollars I'd rather go to five below and get cooler stuffs than payments no 20 dollars for the note plus I love everything about it but I don't want to pay 20 dollars just for a small little upgrade. Please fix this. 😓.Version: 3.13

Full of spamOnly half rage drawing area available because of a big upgrade now button. Full of adds and annoying pop ups that make you have to close windows before you can continue. Limited to only 2 drawings at one time. Waste of download, and I’ve deleted it from my iPad..Version: 3.12

Cool but.....I like it and all but when I looked at it I saw the full pack update but when I got it it was pretty much paper that you can draw on you can put pictures on but that's about all I advise you get this app if your will to spend your pocket money on a game I also saw no games nothing..... sooooo bla.Version: 3.9

Too basicBasic and froze doing tasks. Trying to update to pro but even worst.Version: 3.13

Really...!!!Highly aggressive in your face adverts for "candy" devoid this app of any credibility. I was prepared to take this app seriously but clearly the developers of this app have no consideration for you. Avoid..Version: 3.11

Ads make it unusableI downloaded the free version to evaluate the app fully intending to upgrade if it suited my needs. But every time I open it there is a full screen add that disables app use completely, with no way of closing the ad. If this is the kind of product you’ve designed, then you’ve lost me as a potential paid product user. Your free version should make me want to upgrade because the product is so amazing and useful, not because you’ve purposefully designed a version I can’t use until I relent and upgrade. I expected ads in the free version, that’s fine. I didn’t expect you’d create ads that disable the use of your product..Version: 3.11

This a sample Note taking app.This is showing what it would be like the paid version. I recommend to trying this then buy the actual note. The app contains: - ads - annoying pop ups from the startup - great sample.Version: 3.12

Lost Pages and Keeps Crashing!Honestly started off so well although was slightly disappointed only 3 notebooks are allowed. Then pages randomly started disappearing when I go back to them - they become completely blank (not even ruled just bright blank) it started crashing a lot and doesn’t save my work - there should be a save button at least. Started becoming very frustrating and if I hadn’t already wrote some notes there I would definitely stop working on this app and transfer elsewhere..Version: 3.13

I hate it.Pretty self explanatory..Version: 3.13

Constantly CrashingOkay so I'm a fairly new college student and I downloaded a simple app to text and write on. It worked wonderfully the first time I actually had to use it. The ads were enough for me to handle. Then it started to be weird and close on me so I'd restart my iPad and it'd be fine after that. Now I can't even get into the app! It's constantly kicking me off so I can't take notes let alone even look off the previous ones. I hope this is just a bug and not a devious attempt to make money off of us because lets face it, $15 is too much for an app that I could get all my school supplies for. :/.Version: 3.9

Poor recognitionThis app is unusable for quick note taking without a stylus as the finger recognition is just not quick enough. Had half of my strokes missing as it simply didn’t recognise them in time..Version: 3.11

Annoying adsWould be okay but right in the middle of what you are doing, an irritating ad pops up, filling the screen for half a minute or so, before you can get rid of it. That’s no good. Deleted..Version: 3.13

You should hate this app just read the bottom and you will know whyIt’s because it’s not gonna help you in any thing it’s just gonna let you draw and type whatever you want but you might need help for a story or drawing or any thing else.Version: 3.13

Cookie-policy collecting personal and public dataI was looking into the terms and conditions after it popped up I am one of those that looks at these things. If you were to use this app sign in with emails and passwords this app collects all of these yes that’s right your password as well. We think our public info is fine to let them collect but if you share anything from this app it will collect your IP address and your VPN and what other login details you have used ie Facebook. Go and read the terms and conditions before using this app. After reading the terms and conditions I will not be using this app and nor will I pay to have the full version of this app at I think it was $27 ish for the developers to collect so many details of mine which I believe is complete violation of my details yet to use and pay for the app and allow the developers to have my details. Makes no sense to go ahead with using the app..Version: 3.12

Not as great as I thought...I got this app to digitally sign / fill out an application form for an apartment, because Adobe's version doesn't let you use a stylus to sign... The actual pen signing tool works OK, but the text tool is lousy. You have to tap and hold the screen several times before the cursor appears, and when it does its not lined up where you want it to be. AND, you can't even drag the textbox after you make it, or even edit it or anything! Useless! And when you go to share the document with someone else, your only viable option is email, or photo sharing, or iTunes. Seriously?! Who puts a PDF on iTunes? No dropbox? No google drive? I hope the premium version has these things. Totally not worth the $15 if it doesn't. Free versions is kinda useless. Test it on one or two docs and then you're required to get the paid version... As someone who works in professional UX & Front End Development, using this app on an iPad is frustrating. Please update, and fix this..Version: 3.9

Annoying Ads!The notepad itself is ok, you can write continually on pages but you are only able to have two separate documents with the free version, and the constant ads are so annoying..Version: 3.13

I HATE ADSThought is was going to be just what I needed, simple sketching app to replace my paper notepad to jot down ideas when I’m working. The interface seemed easy to understand and easy to access. Then the ads started, if I moved my pencil the wrong way, an ad popped up. It made the app completely useless for my purposes. I decided to take my chances and upgrade, hoping to get rid if the annoying ads. I clicked on the upgrade button and guess what? Yes, it just brought up another ad. This time and obnoxious gambling ad at full volume. I am deleting the app from my iPad..Version: 3.13

Great App - still testingApp seems great and was perfect for completing an online form, saving the need to print and fill in by hand. Not sure if I want to pay for it though as some of the reviews state that there are still adverts that come through for the developers other apps. Hand written recognition would be a huge benefit to this app although I think this has also been questioned in some of the other comments. Still, a great app, but it’s still early days in my testing..Version: 3.11

DisappointingDownloaded the app because I simply need to draw and jot down notes for my job. I hoped this app would help me but before I can even make one small shape template, 3 ads pop up and my finger hadnt even tapped the screen! It's not user friendly and it's most certainly not customer friendly..Version: 3.11

Keeps crashing with Apple PencilUnable to open app and use with Apple Pencil.Version: 3.9

FrustratingI paid for this version in order to eliminate ads, yet they still pop up for other product offerings. Also, this would have had an extra star, but following the OS11 update, there’s no longer a smooth interaction between Apple Pencil and the app. Instead, the appearance of the lines is jerky instead of smooth, the way I’ve come to expect..Version: 3.11

Not brilliantTried the free version, which is very very basic, plus ads drive you mad, so deleted it.. certainly not paying £20. There are much better apps out there...Version: 3.13

AdsHard to test out the app fully when the ads are prominent and pop up constantly. I would like to be able to use the app to figure out if it's worth buying but the ads up top and the full screen ads popping up are both distracting and frustrating. Probably with continue with this app because of a lack of full ability to use..Version: 3.9

TrashThis is the most disgusting trash note-taking app on the app store. It's completely useless without a subscription and with the subscription it just makes it a little less useless. Still worst than probably all other note-taking apps.Version: 3.13

>:(There’s always adds and when I try to make the text boxes bigger, it never works >:(((((.Version: 3.13

DisappointedI don’t know why there’s so many adds, it truly makes the app unbearable. There are very little customization options. From all the reviews I thought it’d be good but honestly I’m disappointed..Version: 3.13

ProblemsThe first problem is, is that you can only make THREE notes. And then if I want to make more I have to upgrade it, and it leads to buying the better version of it. But it costs $20 and I don't want to waste money. So I deleted it right away. You can buy the Notepad + pro, but it costs a lot. And yes, I now you can only make THREE because the fact that the app is free. But I would say that this app is horrible. Pls make it better in the future and stop ripping people off. 1 star..Version: 3.11

MaliJust because when I’m trying to write it doesn’t let me write.Version: 3.13

Glitchy and not worth it.You can only copy and paste one or two paragraphs from google/safari before the game glitches. The text will come out in a vertical line, and you can’t turn it or anything. There are only three fonts (which are all incredible similar) and 2 types of pen. The paper styles are horrible too, and everything is just wrong! The reason I have given this app a 2 star review is because it’s not the worst note taking app ever, but it’s certainly not the best. I mean, notes (the app that is pre-installed on iPads/iPhones) is better. There are WAY more fonts and pen types! I mean, if this is how bad the basic version is, how bad must the paid version be? I’m not going to waste my money experimenting. My advice: don’t waste your time. Download another app instead..Version: 3.13

Can’t make it work with my pencilGreat app, but even with the palm rest I get so many marks and writing is very hard and annoying. Big no-no for me!.Version: 3.13

I think this App has problems and they need to be fixedYou should be able turn of the the tool that u were using but you can't this needs to be fixed.Version: 3.11

Over the top ads.I understand free apps have to use ads. but EVERY time i added a page an ad popped up. initially i thought i was clicking on the ad. didn’t get a chance to really see if i like the app or not. the ads are too over the top. two stars instead of one because it seems good. but I didn’t stick around to really find out..Version: 3.13

Keeps Closing out and DeletingI have been using this for a few months and haven’t had any issues until now. I’m not sure if it’s the app or the latest iPad update but when in use the app closes itself out and deletes anything I have just done on it. I have lost entire pages of class notes that I cannot replace due to this insufficient app..Version: 3.11

Impossible to know if it’s any goodThe free version is not fully capable for a trial so you can’t really get a feel for how it organizes your workflow. It’s also packed full of ads that pop up and interrupt you that it becomes to frustrating to try. I will not pay money for something I cannot examine one way or another, and their business model in doing this is too off putting to try..Version: 3.11

Pro not worth itDeeply disappointing. I spent £20 on the pro version. Can’t tilt text, so can’t mind mapping. Editing very difficult. Selecting a line to then change width or adjust impossible. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY..Version: 3.12

Do not waste your timeI was trying the free version see if it’s worth to buy. The work I draw end up got erase no reason. The work I have done all disappear, couldn’t revised them. Don’t waste time for this app if you don’t spend $30 to “upgrade” it.Version: 3.13

$$Just annoying you have to pay for it!.Version: 3.13

Why is it so..?There’s to much adds on top it really annoys me, also there’s not enough text fonts! I would also recommend doing more text backgrounds. I don’t really like this app mostly, to upgrade the game you have to pay £20. 2 stars! :C.Version: 3.13
