Customer Reviews
Could be great, but not right now
This app is completely unusable in landscape mode. The developer has added an extra toolbar to the editor which takes up so much room you can only see one line of text. Plus, the auto complete which pops up for just about every word and offers half a dozen choices clutters the small window even more so you basically can't see a thing you're trying to type. Plus, neither of these features can be turned off so in the year I've had this I've used it twice. It's actually a great idea and could be an excellent All-In-One notetaker and organizer, but because of these two design flaws I can't recommend this app to anyone. I would love to use this app again, but it’s too infuriating.
Please fix the editor and make the auto complete actually turn off. The setting in Options doesn't actually seem to do anything...
PadMan
I met the developer of this program at the WDDC and have been using it since. This is easily a $10 program, only at $0.99 I had to buy another copy with the latest updates. I think you'll love this program, but seems like not everyone does. I'm confused about what it not to like, but either way, for $0.99 you owe it to yourself to give this a try.
iPad not compatible
It says it is iPad compatible, which is true, however it is not designed for the iPad. It comes up the size of an iPhone.
