Notes

Take note of almost anything

Published by: Apple

Description

Notes is the best place to jot down quick thoughts or to save longer notes filled with checklists, images, web links, scanned documents, handwritten notes or sketches. And with iCloud, it’s easy to keep all your devices in sync, so you’ll always have your notes with you.
Features
Powerful note-taking
• Add attachments — PDFs, photos, maps, web links and more.
• Record and transcribe audio directly into a note.
• Scan paper documents with the built-in document scanner.
• Secure sensitive or personal data in a locked note.
• Create checklists. Make a shopping list, a wish list or a to-do list, then tap to tick off items as you go.
• Apply different text styles, such as heading or body, bulleted lists, highlighting and more.
• Tap next to section headers to reveal a chevron to collapse text.
• Add tables to quickly organise information.
• Use your finger, or Apple Pencil on a compatible iPad, to sketch directly in your note or an inline PDF. Choose from a variety of brush styles and colours, and add lines and grids to a note for easier writing and drawing.
Organise and search
• Search for text in notes, your handwriting, and even inside scanned documents and photos like receipts or bills.
• Link from one note to another to connect ideas, content or any information. Try typing >> for a shortcut to add links while writing in your note.
• Keep your notes in folders and subfolders, or add tags to categorise them. Type or handwrite tags directly in your note - like #cooking or #expenses.
• Automatically organise notes in a Smart Folder based on filters. Create rules to filter for Date Created, Checklists, Attachments and more.

Collaborate
• Collaborate on entire shared folders or on specific shared notes.
• Mention friends to notify them of important updates and link them directly to a shared note.
• See what others added to a shared note while you were away with Activity view, a day-to-day list summary of activity from each collaborator.
Take notes anywhere
• Just swipe with an Apple Pencil or finger from the bottom-right corner on any compatible iPad to start a Quick Note outside the app. You can also use Fn-Q (Globe-Q) on a keyboard or create Quick Notes on iPhone from the share menu in an app.
• Add deep links from an app or website to a Quick Note to mark your place.
Certain features are available only in selected languages and regions.

10/10 app

Love it

I absolutely love the notes app. It’s served as a journal for me to unravel my life over the last couple of years. What I’d love to see in the future ?? The ability to check edit history. Much like how you can check edit history on like Google Workspace ?? It would literally be so perfect

Room for improvement

Great application, with seamless integration for iPad and iPhone. Could be better though, especially regarding colour transitions when the device is on dark mode versus when it’s not. For example when using the Apple Pencil to annotate notes, the custom/additional ink colours are not the same in dark mode as compared to when the device is on light mode. A minor inconvenience, but it has an effect on the overall presentation of your notes

I love this app with all my heart❤️. I don't usually do reviews but this one, is 100/10❤️❤️❤️

Glitchy, has deteriorated terribly

So disappointed in this app. I have used it for years and now you can’t search in it. The functionality is there but it doesn’t work. You can’t search in a note and you also can’t search in it generally. Without this functionality it’s impossible to find older notes. Time to invest in upgrading this app!!

Notes Good for me in my phone

I like the note feature in my phone so I can remember anything in there

Don’t trust this App!

Opened the App today after a year of faultless performance, to find that everything was gone! All my notes. Tried everything but they’re all gone. Checked online for a fix and saw that many users are complaining of the same thing
