Been looking for a great note-taking app for a while and finally found one. I love it. Only thing is i wish for folders in folders you can actually see the folders on the screen and not only on the sidebar but other than that really great so far
Features
sarissadaria
The app was initially very useful and did a great job of keeping notes organized in one place. Unfortunately, recent updates have significantly reduced its value. Users are now required to pay for an upgrade just to create additional notebooks, with strict limits imposed something that was never an issue before. This change undermines the very idea of “free” note-taking and feels like a downgrade rather than an improvement. Also, there is a lot more ads which are annoying if trying to focus. As a former avid user, I’m extremely disappointed and hope the developers reconsider these changes and restore the app’s previous functionality.
This app is the best

Love it it’s so easy to use and navigate
Was great

This app used to be great however the recent update forcing users to pay to add more notes without the option to even delete old ones to free up space caused me to delete it. The amount of adds used to be tolerable considering there was no limit however this change makes it unusable
