I’ve loved and used this app now for years. Suddenly, it’s stopped synching across devices. I’ve removed and reinstalled it several times, ensured I’m on all current OS versions, quadruple checked that all synch settings are on, and written the support email four times asking for guidance, each time ignored. It’ll be a shame to delete the app, which is now useless, as is their help line.
There’s still no formatting after all this time. Last I checked, this is an all-around note taking and list making app. Formatted text is crucial in apps like this to create punch. You need bold, italics, underlines, and strike-throughs at the very least but bullets would be nice too. Formatting must be really hard to code for but c’mon already. This app has been around long enough to add these crucial features. The developer seems really nice, so hopefully he’ll take this request seriously. I’m raising my rating to 3-stars I hope that an update comes soon, but it can’t be higher than that without formatting.
I have been using this app for years. It’s a great note taking app. I love it’s functionality and simplicity. However both my spouse and I have noticed a problem with current notes that are either not saving properly or deleting themselves. Another Ikiru reviewer complained about something similar happening with their notes. I am concerned that this app is not being monitored enough to keep up with iPhone updates. Unfortunately due to the app becoming glitchy I am going to look for a replacement.
I had the original list app Paperless from this developer and enjoyed it. He changed everything when he stopped Paperless and launched Ikiru. I got it to support his work but I’ve never liked it nearly as much as Paperless and rarely use it. I see that an update is supposed to be in the works. I hope some of the color and utility of the old app returns.
No formatting! Enough said.
Love the program, love its structure, e.g. the ability to have a heading with subheadings and subheadings to the subheadings, To Do’s listed in chronological order, etc. However, some Ikiru features no longer function, such as automatic data sync upon closing, return to the the last view when reopening, etc. I can only attribute this to the fact that there have been several changes to Apple’s operating system and Ikiru has not kept up; there have been no updates for too long. For this reason, I’m now hesitant to entrust important information to Ikiru in case the next major Apple operating system update leaves Ikiru inoperable
It’s a simple to use app with lots of features. Can have several folders all on the home screen with sub folders. Can import or take pictures easily for a specific topic.
For the love of god update your app
Paperless, Ikiru’s parent, is almost perfect but is missing lists within lists (within lists). Ikiru adds that, but its small monochrome icons aren’t as useful as Paperless’ colored icons. It’s much faster to scroll through many items to find what you want if you can recognize icons by their color. The small monochrome ones looks very similar to each other so are almost no use at all. Ikiru chooses form over function in this case. Other than that, the best list app out there IMO.
I’ve been using Ikiru for about 5 years and have gone from being disorganized, unproductive, and restless when it came to performing daily tasks and projects large and small. I created lists for just about everything that I need to get done and I now live a life of daily organization and order. Being able to cross things off as they get done is a real joy! And you can reset the lists to use daily, weekly, whatever. I can’t recommend this app enough for people who love to be organized or for those who are at the beginning of becoming organized. Really... it has changed my life!
