RemNote - Notes & Flashcards

Amazing app, has a few bugs and glitches here and there, but it is truly amazing for studying and taking notes.

I’ve been using remnote for close to a year now, and seeing how well designed their mobile app is, it’s funny to say I’m surprised. Remnote is free, practical, and efficient. I’ve been using the pc version of this application, and it took my studying to the next level. Super psyched to try this out on my IPad :D

Initially the hands down best application for second-brain, zettelkasten, and spaced repetition all in one That is, until the app irrevocably crashed on all mobile devices the day before the biggest exam of my career. Still the best on computer. Unreliable on anything else.

Let me start off by saying that I absolutely adore the plethora of features offered by this app, it has made my life as a stressed-out premed student a little more bearable. Having ways to organize my notes while creating flashcards to test my retention of material has been incredible. With that being said, I have several concerns with how this product is implemented on iOS/iPadOS (the latter of which I am currently using). Here are some of them listed out: 1. Clunky movements and transitions. There are several performance issues I’ve encountered related to extremely laggy movements while switching tabs or running commands to create new cards. I’m on an M1 iPad Pro (12.9”), so I know that the device is capable of processing these commands, but the way it’s coded does not run very smoothly, and has led to some frustration while trying to quickly organize my notes 2. Problems with the visibility of writing space. This occurs when pulling out the keyboard. Occasionally it will block me from seeing the text in front of me while I write. This has discouraged me from using the app a lot. 3. Absence of writing tools for Apple Pencil. I also own the Anki Mobile app, and I really like how the developers have implemented writing tools that the iPad comes preinstalled with, so I can write out my organic chemistry reactions and then create flashcards with them. It is a very convenient way to maximize the amount of classes I can use these apps for. I’m a little surprised that you have not included this as an option yet, but then again I’m not a developer and have no idea what the implications of this would be. That’s the bulk of what I have to say about the app. If I were writing a review on desktop I would have given it 5 stars, because I really do like all of the features, but the mobile app for iPad is barely functional for me and does not seem to fully take advantage of its capabilities. Hopefully you take my concerns into consideration for future updates.

Taking notes on my IPad gives a lot of issue it glitches a lot while im in class and it causes me to fall behind with all the glitches. It does retain the info but with it lagging and having a lot of problems. It makes it hard to appreciate the app.

I still use this app to help me in my nursing career. Thank you!!

I’ve reinstalled the app twice now and every time I try to open it, it says an error occurred after it syncs my notes on desktop.

I’ve used quizlet in the past and decided to use REMNOTE this school year because of the spaced repetition and occlusion cards and the versatility of how to make different flash cards. I was pleased until as of late 3 months into school when I began to have issues with my occlusion cards not occluding parts of the images. I’ve had to redo them which is time consuming and takes me away from studying. A bit of a steeper learning curve to learn compared to quizlet. Support has been slow to fix the problems and I have midterms coming up (submitted issue to support a week ago), otherwise I would’ve given more stars.
