Memo Sticky Notes + Widget Reviews

by Shepard13

Why pay a subscription price for this when you can get the same for free out of Google Keep? Subscriptions for simple apps like this need to stop. A one time charge I can see, but it’s not like your writing the best note taking app in the world.

Nil support. Paid for trial to Premium and there is no syncing to my Macbook from my iPhone or vice versa. There isn't even a log in on the phone app. Support is non-existent. Great concept, but it isn't happening. Rip off. I would ask for my money back if I could figure who to ask.

They claim MemoStickyNotesWidget synced across devices and does not! There web site doesn’t work. They have no customer service. I want my $ back but have no where to go. Terrible company.

by Danjjig

There is no direction on how to get the note on your home screen. That is all I wanted it for.

by Nickian

Why would anyone use this when there are so many more advanced note taking apps that don't require a subscription. Plus, I'm not interested in sync via iCloud. Use an open platform we can trust, like NextCloud or WebDAV.

MemoStickyNotesWidget is a piece of CRAP!!

Sync does not work!
No customization!
$9.99 YEAR FOR SYNC!

All I wanted was a simple app that could sync a sticky notes from the desktop of my work computer to the desktop on my home-office computer so I could have a quick glanceable way to keep track of items I reference daily (such a extension numbers for phone system, universal passwords for shared programs, etc.). I just needed a simple app that could stick an open note on my desktop for quick reference and sync between computers - unfortunately Apple’s built in sticky note app does not have a sync function or I would use that. I was even willing to pay $9.99 A YEAR!!! for this stupid sync function. Nothing about this apps sync function has ever worked - deleting a note and it shows back up later, make changes and they don’t fully sync. Also for 9.99 a year MemoStickyNotesWidget has basically no customization either.

I WANT MY MONEY BACK!!

Sync not working. Paid for premium, got iOS and Mac apps, no sync between them, but have iCloud sync active. Support on reddit has zero responses to 99% of issues. Looks like money down the drain.

Be careful if you download MemoStickyNotesWidget just to peek at it. I got charged the $.99 despite there being a 7 day trial period, and it started a subscription. Apple reversed the charge. There is no folder hierarchy in MemoStickyNotesWidget. It is a single list of multiple notes, and searching them probably works is you have hundreds in your list. For me, Apple Notes just seemed easier to use and searching is good. App deleted.

I have no issues paying a subscription for apps including notes and writing apps. I pay for Evernote, Bear and Ulysses. But all of the offer value.

MemoStickyNotesWidget do not offer anything better than the stock notes app and still wants a subscription.

Dev if you want to charge a subscription you need to offer value is that simple.

Why did someone develop this truly sorry application?

There is no real purpose to MemoStickyNotesWidget that so many others offer for free. And this is coming from the folks that developed the excellent Airmail 3 email client? There most be some mistake there. To Bloop: You totally spent time and effort in a "nothing" app. Lack of the “wow” factor all around.

It truly boggles the mind that, in top of it all, it is a subscription service. I ask, FOR WHAT? Why would anybody subscribe to a service that offers, at most, two or three useful features, and there is nothing elegant to it.

Please do not waste your time. Nothing is worth your money nor attention.

I thought MemoStickyNotesWidget would allow quick pop up sticky note to jot down a note - stay visible on my ipad screen - like the old sticky notes on Mac - Implied but not the case at least as far as I can figure out.

For quick text notes I’ll just stick with SimpleNote which I’ve used for years! More than that - Drafts or Apple Notes.

by Macnamaramac

Really?
What world do these developers thing we wanna live?
Imagine instead of paying for something once and forget it forever, to pay every single year?
Jesus Christ, this is nonsense ....
Imagine a “NOTE” application that you have to pay every single year for an application?
No way!
I wonder why people have less money for stuff that they really need.
This is not a sale, this is a rent, you are basically renting the functionality of MemoStickyNotesWidget.
This is so selfish and sick.
MemoStickyNotesWidget doesn’t even deserve 1 star.
Absolutely disgraceful and unprofessional.

by Kang709

MemoStickyNotesWidget looks good but there isn’t much special about it. It’s simple but not worth a subscription. As soon as I opened MemoStickyNotesWidget it begged me to subscribe and my phone begged me to delete this waste of space. Don’t waste your space or time or money or finger strength or brain activity or anything on MemoStickyNotesWidget. 👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿

It’s not even worth commenting on the subscription costs if MemoStickyNotesWidget does not support iPad full screen and landscape. Deleted!

by IAdrianSkinner

I tried to like it but within minutes of installing it, I deleted it. Why? Because there is no support for folders (like the native iOS Notes app has). I like to organize my notes into appropriate folders. Not sure if I saw a search function MemoStickyNotesWidget .

by TVfordinner

I use Airmail on all of my devices, so of course I thought I’d love Memo. The thing is, it’s just Apple’s own Notes with a different skin. I expected something different.

by Jeremytalbert

Functionally it’s pretty cool. However, try to switch from the one provided by Apple and you’ll see the difference in quality, not in a good way. The fidelity of the fonts looks visually wrong. It makes the several custom fonts that I have look indistinguishable from Time New Roman and the problem isn’t fixed by scaling the text. So... there you go.

I love Apple Notes but decided to give other notes app a try after the latest update still missing stuff that’s increasingly important for me such as Markdown support. Glad to have found Memo a while ago. Supporting Markdown aside, MemoStickyNotesWidget is easy to pick up and sync across my phone and Mac. Just started the subscription trial for the premium version and we will see how that goes.

by Sam Weasley

I don’t think you are able to find another notes app that let you write, attach files and pictures to notes as easily as Memo. Need more than just plain text? Format it with Markdown. Want to categorize the notes? Give them different colors. Want to sync it across phone and laptop? Set up iCloud sync once and forget it. I’m hooked and I think you’d too.

Lots of apps have cross-platform sync. My only request to the developer was for a white note background. I already like this more than Bear and Evernote. It’s much faster. Bear and Evernote take 2-3 steps to take a note. By the time I find the note in Bears left margin, I’ve already made my note in memo. I’ve even stopped using Todoist, since it also takes longer and I can’t jot down real notes. I paid for Agenda and it’s below all 3. I haven’t had any problems with syncing my Mac and iOS. And honestly this is so fast I just love it. Give it a chance guys, I don’t want the developer to stop working on this.

by James Humfrey

Balanced design, useful, nice and simple. Thank you!

Lots of reviews here talk about how MemoStickyNotesWidget charges subscription for its premium version. I think there’s good and bad of both paid and free app. One option doesn’t trump the other in all cases. It really just comes down to what personally suits you best. I also believe that we shouldn’t expect app developers to work for free just like how we get paid for what we do at work. I like how Memo app lets me add notes quickly on an interface that’s familiar and intuitive to navigate. The font is solid, the colors are pleased to eyes. I have been using it for a while now and haven’t encounter any sync problem. When I need the notes on my Mac they are there. If I may add, I would love to have the option to access MemoStickyNotesWidget through the Mac menu bar.

by Edward Finlay

I like the versatility of MemoStickyNotesWidget . You can use it for almost anything from taking quick note, creating checklist for groceries, writing longer form of story etc. I use it everyday in school and at part time gig. I don’t use it that much on my iMac but whenever I do, they work fine there too. A longer trial period would make it even better in my opinion.

by Danilobarbosa313

It does what it says on the name - let you write memo down as sticky notes. The design is simple and to the point. Not much learning curve for people who already know Markdown by heart. Whenever I need to remind myself of something or take notes for reference later, I just launch Memo app, write them in and know that they will be there waiting on my phone or on my Macbook later.
