Simplenote App Reviews

I live and die by nvALT on the Mac. Ive trusted Simplenote with syncing my notes between Macs for years, but never thought to use the iOS app; Ive always tried Drafts or Elements, or other apps like that. Im happy I gave Simplenotes iOS app a shot: it does exactly what I need it to do-simple note-taking with the same ease of use as Apples Notes, but with access to the hundreds of nvALT-based notes Ive collected over the years. Its a no-brainer.

Perfect text only replacement for Evernote. Love it!

This application truly lives up to its name. Nothing is excessive, no features are unnecessary, it gives you just the right amount of functionality without overwhelming you. I couldnt be happier with my experience. Plus, the revision history feature is so helpful!!!

Really simple, available everywhere, flawless synchroznization. Highly recommended.

4+ years of using SimpleNote & its still an essential app I use everyday. There is a desktop version syncs plain text, searchable, tag-able notes btwn OS X & iOS Mainly use for : 1. Fast way to save a URL, reservation/confirmation, email drafts etc that are in progress. Could use improvements in encryptable, share-able notes Also if import / export was simplified to back up my notes This would make it a solid 5star app This is a 4.5 star app that everyone using an iPhone/iPad & a desktop/laptop will find lives up to its name, SimpleNote. Thank you x1000000 to all who developed & maintained this app. You upped my productivity & saved countless hours of my time !

just what the doctor ordered - simple, intuitive, and flawless (in terms of its intended purpose); if youre looking for an app with bells and whistles not necessary to its core utility, then find a different app

They should call it not-so-SimpeNote now. The whole value of this app was in its simplicity... now with all the new features Ive started experiencing sync issues. And the new larger font blows. If youre going to add all these additional features, at least add the ability to change the font size.

I use Simplenote every day on an iPhone, an iPad, and Macs at home and work. I have used it since early days after buying my first iPod touch in 2007. The interface is brilliantly simple, finding the information Ive stored is easy, and the synchronization "just works" as expected. Simplenote is an invaluable aid to an aging brain! Apples Notes app is also great, but older devices may not be able to play, and non-Apple devices cant. Simplenote wins if you need to work across platforms.

All i want is an app that combines a basic notepad-type app with some othe basic functionality features, and Simplenote seems to do the job without all the other bloatware attached

This app is gorgeous and works perfectly.

I keep a note pinned for a collection of conference call speed dials. Two taps and Im on the call. The fastest solution by far. Whatever their business model, I hope the program stays up to date and active b

Simple and quick!! The best one for me!!!

I use this in conjunction with Notational Velocity on my Mac. It gets the job done!

Its very useful. I recommend you to use it.

I got headache using Evernote. Im so lucky that i came across this app, my suffering is finally over. This app is dead simple but it is beautiful and it serves me well. My notes are organized with tags. Markdown support is awesome. I take a lot of programming notes so this allows me write code examples directly into my notes. iOS users can search notes in spotlight. How convenient! All the features are what i need for a note taking app. I dont need web clipper, I dont need PDF attachments or anything else. Absolutely love it!

Easily create notes with a simple interface. Notes are backed up to the cloud so you could access them on other devices including their web site. After losing my notes from the built-in notepad on iPhone, have tried a few other note taking apps, and this is my favorite by far. Simple and reliable.

Excellent app! I use it for lists, point sheets, to-dos.

Its very practical and portable. If there was the possibility of marking excerpts with bold would be great!

(Edited 5/24/17) Still wonderful after all these years. Super reliable sync and in general rock solid. Keep up the great work. ---------------- (Original review) My wife and I have used Simplenote as our "external brain" for several years now. No frills, special formatting, etc. Just reliable sync (which is absolutely crucial) and very stable. Exactly what we need. One of our favorite things about it is the sidebar showing the note list when in landscape mode. Much better than having to jump out of the app to see the directory.

Everything I could ever want in a note-taking app.
