After the UI update it hat become laggy, unorganised, and just very unintuitive and ugly in general. When I include photos, everything goes haywire real fast. They start placing themselves in weird placed and cover eachother up and make text move all over. When opening an old note and you accidentally tap the text, it gets "edited" once you exit the note even though you did nothing, placing it on top again. When tapping + it selects the note behind it. Annoyances like that are all over...

I would be LOST without this app. No joke. While I don't necessarily NEED this specific application (any text editor would suit my purposes perfectly adequately), I do like the interface, the layout options, the settings, and the ability to integrate notes with just about everything on my phone. I'm incredibly absent minded, so Calendar and Notes are the two most valuable apps I have. It seems a bit ridiculous to heap so much praise on this included software, but it's brilliant!

Love this app. It is my lifeline to all the crazy password changes needed and safe with bio, pin, or pattern locking to lock so or all notes. Able to organize, color code, and file all notes efficiently so everything is found quickly, and I love the ability to customize the types of colors, pen styles... you name it... and did I mention AUTOSAVE! Lost an entire days worth of notes from another "Famous Brand" app thanks in part to the lack of saving notes without a bunch of steps to do first.
