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. Scan paper documents with the built-in document scanner. • Secure sensitive or personal data in a locked note. • Create checklists. Make a grocery list, a wish list, or a to-do list, then tap to check off items as you go. • Apply different text styles, such as heading or body, bulleted lists, and more. • Add tables to quickly organize information. • Use your finger, or Apple Pencil on a compatible iPad, to sketch right in your note or an inline PDF. Choose from a variety of brush styles and colors, and add lines and grids to a note for easier writing and drawing. Organize 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, and sort them in the order you prefer. • Use tags as a fast and flexible way to categorize and organize your notes. Add one or more tags by typing or handwriting them directly in the note - like #activities or #cooking. • Automatically organize 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 into 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 select languages and regions.

    Hello im writing this review because my sister, who’s a nail tech has like the clients booked on her notes app and she went on her notes app to see who she has tomorrow, as soon as she went everything was DELETED. she went to recently deleted and NOTHING (she went to check for recently deleted but she couldnt find it meaning that everything got deleted). she started crying because she has her appointments, passwords, clients and EVERYTHING on this app. this was a huge problem and im like really mad at this app for it. like out of nowhere everything got deleted?!? notes app, please fix this problem and those who has the same problem because this is a disappointment. This problem was a nightmare.
  • A few bits of frustrating UX

    Notes is in general really great, but there are a couple things that frustrate me: I use an iPhone and a mac, and I put all my notes on iCloud so I can have them shared between devices. But they often get out of sync, which is fine but there is no way to manually refresh either to look for new changes. All I want is to be able to drag down and see a reloading symbol like on Safari or Mail. It annoys me to no end, and eventually I will have to switch to OneNote or something. The other thing which is probably unreasonable to fix, but I might as well mention, are occasional lag spikes while typing. I’ll be typing a word and then my keyboard will stall for a few seconds and then it’ll glitch and make the text appear really fast. Not ideal, but I don’t know what optimization are possible here.
  • Ten out of ten definitely recommend!

  • took over 230gb storage

    After synced to iCloud, it still takes 230gb of local storage. i have about 2500 notes. all text. This is a miserable app that keeps you paying for more icloud storage, and still keeps everything on device.

    I had a note going for almost 8 months and I was typing on it today when it decided to disappear. I looked EVERYWHERE and I mean EVERYWHERE but NOTHING. It’s gone. And I am sad. Very disappointed. 1 star. I will not be using notes for important things after this. No thank you ma’am. Everybody save ur info 🙏🙏🙏

    I love the notes app. I just wish there was a selection of fonts to choose from.

    Great feature that I use regularly.
  • Search hangs or doesn’t work

    I wish I could upload a screenshot: a word in the search box and the same word on the screen in the note and the search result count showing zero and no highlighted text. I tapped search and waited. I tapped the up and down carets and waited. Nothing. Crazy enough about 60 + seconds later when I took the screenshot – Doink! It finally worked. Too little, too late. This problem has been around for a year or more now.
  • Would be nice to add olor to each note
