## Simplenote Reviews in United States

### ***** "My Favorite Notes App"
The best note taking app I&#039;ve used so simple, useful and effective I&#039;ve been using it since 2010
-- Christian OConnor, 2025-01-10

### ***** "Just what I need and nothing more"
Simplenote is what it says. A nice simple application with strong cross platform support on desktop and mobile for keeping and synchronizing your notes.
-- adjerm, 2025-01-02

### ***** "The absolute best note taking app"
Have been using this for years and LOVE IT. 
It is super fast and easy to add quick notes or lists. 

Tagging is great and enables you to easily find things.
-- Toomanybarts, 2024-12-24

### ***** "pdf output please"
great app pdf output please
-- high grade cyi, 2024-12-24

### ***** "Seems to be working well"
It’s not a secure site and sometimes it doesn’t update some notes for a while, but usually it’s instant. I have hundreds of notes. 
Its so well designed!
-- sgjjvdsfhj, 2024-12-05

### ***** "Excellent for cross-platform users"
I had tried everything to sync my to-do lists between my work MacBook and home PC, even a convoluted series of .txt files in synced folders in Dropbox. Nothing worked until I found Simplenote three years ago. I’ve used it every day since. All the features I want and none I don’t. Rare to find a product that stays good for this long! Thank you Automattic!
-- Rap And Country, 2024-12-03

### *---- "Does not work."
The only thing this app is supposed to do is sync notes, between collaborators. My husband and I tried to share a single note for over an hour with no success. Waste of time.
-- Mary Byron, 2024-11-24

### ****- "Simple but no photos!"
Sometimes a &quot;simple&quot; app like this works beautifully. My husband and I collaborate to share our medical and prescription info. All text notes are working well. HOWEVER I really wish adding a photo isn&#039;t so complicated. I read through instructions on how to do it and decided not to even try. I&#039;d love to add pics of our insurance cards, for instance. I&#039;d consider a fee or subscription to be able to do this. I&#039;d give it 5 stars then!
-- Xmas Edition, 2024-11-21

### ****- "Great for android and iphone! But can’t lock/hide notes"
I got this app because I recently switched from android to iphone, and I couldn’t find a way to transfer my notes between interfaces. The easiest way was just to move them all to a third-party app. I love the simple interface, and especially the fact that it’s free! There’s no annoying paywall where they try to sell you extra features. I just really, really wish there was a way to lock or hide specific notes. You can set a passcode to lock the whole app, but not specific notes. I have things like Christmas lists and personal notes that I don’t want anyone to see, but I don’t want the trouble of having to enter a password every time I want to look at my to-do list or other notes that don’t need to be hidden. If it just had that one feature, it would be 5 stars!
-- jellyfishmachine, 2024-11-19

### ***-- "Breaking up is difficult"
I’ve used SN for years across iOS, MacOS, and Windows. It served my needs, albeit with quirks and limitations. I figured further development would iron those out. Seems Automattic isn’t interested in really updating this app, and its limitations are too tiresome for me to work with any longer.
-- dobsrah, 2024-10-24

### ***** "Best note app for cross platform users"
If you are switching between all major OS’s and machines, look no further than SIMPLENOTE.  For a miniature note app this one beats all others AND it syncs your notes between devices.  Give this a try.  

I use SIMPLENOTE on my iPAD, Windows Laptop, iPhone, even my raspberry pi.  Kudos go out to the app developers here.  Simply awesome!
-- StormGuy71, 2024-10-17

### ***** "Suggestions and kudos."
I&#039;ve been using this app for a couple of years.  It is my go to for short notes.

Suggestions
- an easy way to archive or download notes so I can start with a fresh slate.
- an apple watch app with at least read only capability.

Thanks for a great app.
-- Casgo, 2024-10-06

### ***** "Very good  multi platform replacement for Apple notes"
Simple-similar to notes app
Fast
Reliable syncing
multi-platform
Reliable searching
Supports URL links
Supports dialing phone numbers
Supports inline math. Ex. 4+5=9

I have &gt;140 notes
-- cksv, 2024-10-05

### ***** "Does what you need"
It keeps it simple in a world of feature bloat.
-- Sloanish, 2024-09-06

### *---- "Good for what it is"
It’s a decent notes app that has checkboxes so I can’t complain too much.

But I will complain about the lack of undo button. I cannot count the amount of times I’ve made a mistake and had no todo button and had to hope I could remember what was there.
-- Db0820, 2024-08-24

### ***** "So glad I found this app 3 yrs ago"
As a person who never reviews, this app really deserves talking about! 3 years into using Simplenote, it’s still the best free notetaking app I can find for my needs. Syncing is quicker than other apps I use, the UI isn’t cluttered, and I haven’t needed to pay a dime. I have a PC and iPhone, and transferring info between the two has been seamless. I type much faster on computer than on my phone, so drafting a message on computer in the desktop app to send in seconds on the phone has been amazing. It’s helped me stay organized for much longer than other apps have. So thankful to have found this app, and thanks to the developers!
-- Tim the Young, 2024-08-20

### ***-- "It’s ok"
I am giving it 3 star and not 5 star because smooth scrolling is not working on long notes with 30, 40 lines tots in notes.

Why?

Google keep had good smooth scrolling for notes in both web and app notes.
-- a123r, 2024-07-04

### *---- "Hate it"
Simple and fast to sign up . An email is sent and received in one second to sign up. 
Trying to delete account you need to be sent an email to delete your account . Tried numerous times and no email received. 
I do not recommend this app.
-- kim6819, 2024-07-01

### *---- "STEALING MY MONEY."
Went to install Simple Note on my IPad because I seen it was free,App store was being annoying and asking for my card information in order to install apps so I put in my info, Once I installed Simple Note I seen that Apple Store took 5 dollars out of my account.
-- Veeworldd, 2024-06-18

### *---- "WARNING: DATA LOSS"
I’ve been using Simplenote for most of my life, but unfortunately in the past few months I’ve lost days of notes at a time. Please be aware that even as of the most recent version, your notes might just disappear and you have no recourse whatsoever.
-- Caleb Foust, 2024-05-30
