User reviews
great app really, I wish if you just keep the original them and design of Notally, the search take too much eara of screen and when trying to search it jumps to the middle of screen, the night is too dark. I hope you can at least add an option to bring basic thing. Thanks.
Great note taking app! I recommend downloading it.
A more perfect version of a great note taking app! I'm surprised that clearing checked items and Auto Sort checked items to the bottom isn't in the original app... Thanks!!!
Good app and totally free. Only one question, the backup is created in an encrypted zip archive, what encryption algorithm is used?
