So far, out of all the note apps I have tested out, and I have tested out a lot, this has been the most easy to use and the most organized. It sorts folders as "notebooks"' making it much easier to access my notes than any other app. However, I cannot give a full 5 stars because (strangely) the night mode is automatically turned off when the "require a passcode at app startup" option is turned on. Edit: The issue detailed in my previous review has been taken care of.

Great looking note app. Functional. Being able to have a checklist and a note in one note together is a neat feature. I love that IN ADDITION to an option to pay to remove ads, there are also several options to watch ads to remove ads for an extended period of time. After 3 ads worth less than a minute of my time, I received no ads for one month. More apps should have this option, it's great!

I have more than 1 notepad. I like this notepad best. It is easy to use, holds and synchronizes a very large amount of notes, and the search feature almost always finds the note or notes I need to find (this is very important to me). It is also able to copy and paste to and from notes, easily (this is also very important to me). I like it so much I wish all my notepads worked just like it (I would have 3 of them to segregate business, personal, and speciality notes from each other). Thank You!

What's new

• If your Notes data is less than 25 MB in size (text + pictures), you can now enable Android Backup system. The app will keep track of the last time the system triggered the backup and will notify you if the quote is exceeded. Users with more than 25 MB of data are recommended to set up a cloud backup to one of the supported cloud services.
• WebDAV now supports more software/hosts.
