Most people, including myself, aren’t using Dark Mode for aesthetic purposes, but as an accessibility option, as Light Modes can be genuinely painful and headache inducing to look at. Dark Mode is required for those with visual disability or impairment, as well as for those who work with writing at night. Without that, this app is nothing to me but the dream of what could have been. Ideal in that it’s free to use, easy to navigate, has basic markdown, a decent amount of functionality. Impossible to give a good review, because it’s actively hurting me every time I try to look at it. Dark Mode is an Accessibility feature, and shouldn’t be behind a paywall, having it stay like that is a huge slap in the face to night owls and the visually impaired. 2 stars given for being free and good at it’s job. 3 stars withheld for having all that and being rendered unusable to me and an entire demographic by mere virtue of considering accessibility a paid privilege. -- Eyeless-Seraphim, 2024-02-08 ### ***** "Beautiful, minimal, and focused" I browsed, downloaded, and tried a handful of writing apps before finding this one. Many of the other apps available become bloated in both features and aesthetics, whereas PenCake focuses on the innate beauty of text and writing. This allows you the space to simply focus on writing. It’s a wonderful and welcomed break from the attention-grabbing methods in most apps these days. My only wish is for the ability to set up a daily reminder to write, but that’s solved easily enough with third-party apps I already have. 100% recommended. -- SeaBrass, 2024-01-18 ### ****- "Wonderful for poetry" I use this mainly for the purpose of drafting poems; and it’s a great app for that and much else. I love the light mode — which I don’t say for most apps — and the aesthetics in general. Wonderful app! -- jdosjsowjdpd, 2023-12-30 ### ***-- "써둔 내용이 날라갔네요...ㅠㅠ" 안녕하세요, 이 앱을 애용하는 사람입니다 자동 동기화를 위해서 프리미엄도 가입했습니다 분명 글을 다 쓰고 나서 확인을 누르고 잠시 앱을 나갔고 다시 들어오니 내용이 날라가 있었습니다…ㅠㅜ 정말 열심히 썼던 거고 분명 저장도 했는데 날라가버렸네요…ㅠㅠ 이런 일이 또 생기면 진짜 너무 속상할 것 같아요 혹시 자동 저장 기능은 없나요? 자동 저장 기능만 있으면 너무 좋을 것 같아요 ㅠㅠ 앱은 늘 잘 쓰고 있습니다!! 꼭!!! 자동 저장 기능 만들어주세요!! 부탁드려요!!!! -- 3853853853, 2023-10-29 ### ***** "5 Stars" I’m not exaggerating when I say that thanks to this app, my mind is clearer and more organized than ever. I find that this is just the perfect amount of organization that allows me to organize my thoughts, ideas, daily experiences & etc. clearly. Plus the aesthetic is unbeatable. I love it so much. Thank you app developers, I can’t thank you enough!!! ☀︎☀︎☀︎ -- &12mak, 2023-04-11 ### ***** "aesthetically practical!" totally satisfied with this app and never regret purchase premium. the design is very elegant and simple, which is the best advantage of this app. however, I hope the developer would add the function to sort articles by pulling it. otherwise, this app is awesome! -- elainadeceline, 2022-12-08 ### ***** "Usually don’t leave reviews" But it’s freaking worth mentioning: this app is exactly what I was looking for without even realizing I was. It’s beauty is in it’s simplicity. It doesn’t try to be more than it needs to be. It doesn’t take away from the objective. It actually encourages and focuses the objective through it’s simplicity. Thank you Pencake creators. I’m inspired and delighted. -- Nandarani, 2022-11-25 ### ***** "Italics PLEASE!" Most eye pleasing writing app I’ve come across. Love all the customization and features, just one thing. PLEASE give us the option to italicize and bold text!! That’s the one feature that’s lacking for me as a fiction writer and I really think it would make the app perfect in my opinion. -- 😑🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟, 2022-07-15 ### ***** "Great design to get right to it" This is the first app that gets the “feel” of writing from its design. I could see an argument for a better search system, but then it would feel like all the other note apps. This is not for high-yield writing - go to $crivner for that. This is more casual and that’s exactly what I’ve been looking for. -- slxpluvs, 2022-06-15 ### ***** "the one-time purchase premium version is the best app for writing poetry*" if you write poems but don't always feel like turning on your computer or digging for a notebook, especially if you’re in bed or on your lunch break or even in the bathroom, this app is the easiest way to write or revise on poems. Very easy to change font size to make various line lengths work. there aren’t a lot of options to mess with indents, spacing, or alignment — unfortunately — but for early drafts this is perfectly serviceable *I’m sure one of those word processor apps & attaching a keyboard would be the “best” way to write poems on a phone, but at that point it defeats the point of the phone’s convenience” -- SadHyphenPeen, 2022-06-14 ### ***** "Personally, best notes app i've ever used" I downloaded the app recently, and this is the most relief i've felt in so long. I've been looking for a note-taking / journaling app for months that actually makes me want to use it; pleasing to the eye, simple and elegant-ish format, and easy to use. This is everything I want it to be, and the layout of having different "stories" with articles under each, and then each story having its own page that can be easily reached by swiping, it's literally a dream. I have nothing but praise for it. The design, format, and concept, it all gives me such a calming feeling and doesn't create any of the anxiety and pressure i've felt trying to use other notes or journaling apps. I don't know if what I'm trying to express comes through the way I want it, because reading this again it sounds overdramatic, but i'm just so grateful i've found an app that doesn't make me feel obligated or overwhelmed. I've never ever found one that I've been able to stand for longer than a week. Whatever. This app is great. Good job!! -- whgsdvmdjdb, 2022-05-15 ### *---- "Not free!" Another misleading app that seems free. The only thing you can do on the free version is add a title and a subtitle to a story! Anything further, you must pay. Pass! -- HLYHLY, 2022-04-20 ### ***** "so minimalist" I love this app it’s so simple yet elegant. Plus unlike a lot of other apps the free mode is actually pretty great! -- crystalcrybaby, 2021-10-27 ### ***** "The Only Thing Missing. . ." One of my favorite apps, and arguably the best diary/journaling app. With the 1-time buy of premium instead of a subscription model, and what it offers, it really shows the developers also care for more than just money. The only thing missing from this near-perfect package is an option for the theme of the app to automatically follow the system’s theme, switching between dark and light just as the phone does. That’s all. -- LostMass, 2021-10-25 ### *---- "Hate it" I guess I’m stupid …. Just wanted to journal my feelings but couldn’t even figure out how to get off first page to start!! -- veathomie, 2021-07-16 ### ***** "Love it" It is indeed simple and minimalistic. I’m enjoying it. However, would it be possible to add in italics or bold edits? -- Eevee2008, 2021-07-02 ### ***** "Amazing" Such a great app for writing! I’m writing a story right now and this app has inspired me to write more. It can be used as a diary, a journal, and even a novel writer! Great app! I recommend this app to everyone and anyone who has a passion for writing! -- KawaiiShadows, 2021-04-14 ### ****- "It’s Perfect, The Only Thing Is. . ." A phenomenal writing platform, however, for myself, the cancel option is placed where I am so used to saving the document, as well as the data would not be backed up for awhile after you have written in a ‘story’ or a document. -- Dune Flowers 👼🏻, 2021-01-07 ### ***-- "Trivial Update and Now Privacy Intrusions" THE INSULT: Waiting ten months for a trivial update that added a few fonts while basic functionality goes ignored, such as font formatting (requested repeatedly). THE INJURY: Turns out the developer is using third-party crashlytics, etc. to collect “anonymized” user data such as OS and session duration—presumptively and presumptuously, i.e., without my permission. A good program initially, but the anemic update history and privacy intrusions have hurt it. Will be looking for a replacement with better functionality, more committed and responsive development, and zero privacy incursions. -- must have coffee, 2021-01-05 [View all Notes reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/ru/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Notes In-App Purchases | Item | Price | |------|-------| | Tip the Developer | $0.99 | | Upgrade to Premium | $2.99 | | Lifetime Premium Access | $23.99 | | Premium Yearly Subscription | $9.99 | | Upgrade to Premium Lifetime | $24.99 | ## Notes Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Топ бесплатных | Тайвань | Lifestyle | #408 | ## Notes Discovered Keywords -
