Notebooks. Reviews

by RRRROSI

So Notebooks looks good for starters but within creating one note within Notebooks I couldn’t figure out something simple (how to rename a note). I thought I could review the help section, but I could find the help section. So I decided to go ask the question of the developers and the question form looks so generic I wonder if they’ll ever reply.

The reason I’m doubting they’ll reply is for the developer’s MO—- they basically force you to leave a review (their ‘write a review’ pops up every time you open Notebooks until you write a review, which is annoying as heck and the reason why so many users have given Notebooks a high review without a written description ‘why’) — and then are not accessible to answer questions.

On the surface Notebooks looks great. I’m just wondering if it’ll actually deliver.

I just don’t want to use that petit 5G icloud storage to sync any of these huge notes and files, so if Notebooks requires icloud syncing, you should state it out at the description but not deliberately trick through by confusing definitions.
And also, what if users simply want to write notes that’s available in local storage and export to PDF when needed? not every notes has meaning, and what makes me sick is that you can’t even get Notebooks functioning because there would be pop-ups and prompts-out without “X” button to ask you to either watch the icloud guide video or to enable that.
Shame on Notebooks!

At first, it looked like a decent notes app. I got in and, oh I was wrong!! 😂😂 Notebooks is organized, TOO organized. You make a folder, then you can make sub folders, and in the sub folders are your notes. On the other hand, every minute they’re asking for a review hence the only reason I’m writing this. Of you are ok with this crap, download Notebooks .

I think something that Notebooks should have is different types of paper. It would be much easier for students like me. I really love the organization, it’s so much easier for me as a student. I also think Notebooks should have more color options for the highlighters, fills, and pens. I love the mic feature as well, it’s so nice. I don’t see it in many apps. I would also like to see an option for handwritten words to be turned into text since it’s would help many students who use stylus pens. Overall, I say Notebooks is decent. Hopefully, these recommendations for different features happen.

I literally could not write one full note without being badgered every couple of seconds about writing a review!!!!I mean first up give me a chance to actually use Notebooks before you asked me to review it (not to mention being asked to review an app is an annoying in and of itself butI know it’s how everything is judged nowadays so I understand) but I was asked four times in a three minute period to write a review.... I probably would’ve given you guys 100% positive review because the talk to text in your app works better than anything I’ve experienced but I’m so annoyed that I couldn’t even get through one single note without being asked four times to review it that I can’t give it an all positive review because it’s pointless to have an app that works if you can’t even use it because you’re being asked to review it!!!!!

I was looking for an app like this but they all costed money but this? No it costs money for some tools i don’t need. That is awesome. Some things to improve and add is first to let us move the pictures and not double it every time I add a picture it doubles it. Weird. Something to add is to make reminders on some notes. I understand that this is a notebook but I also understand that it is a DIGITAL notebook. So that would be very cool and creative to add a feature like this. So that is all I have other than that Notebooks is very cute,productive, and wonderful. Bye!

I don't know if it's just my iPad needing updated, or if I need more storage or what, but I am not able to use full funding satisfactorily. I'm unable to delete old notes and I cannot find any relief from Notebooks prompting me to review it in Notebooks Store every 3-5 minutes, even though I already did so. I Deleted my review so that I could post this updated one. But it's enough to make me stop using Notebooks entirely 🥱😵‍💫

by Milopighoney041418

I think it’s a really cool and useful app as long as you don’t already have a notes app, I think they pretty much operate the same, and the voice to text tool is really accurate and helpful (as long as there’s not too much background noise)

by Tutulaire

This is really a great tool for students but I can’t seem to synchronize my iPhone, iPad and iPod to have the same updates at the same time. If I use my iPad to add in a text, after I save it, I expect to see the new updates on both my phone and iPod but it is never updated or updates like hours later on all three at the same time.

I wouldn’t stop bothering me to write a review though, however it’s super organized and let’s me add how ever many folders I want. Also I don’t have to pay for anything, or anything like that. Like how those other apps say they’re free but you end up having to pay. So I really appreciate Notebooks also because it takes really good notes.

by Pepper,s Reveiws 2956573

It keeps me organized with school and it’s very useful this is amazing I wish taking notes in real life was this easy!!! 😊I love it but one thing I would to add if it’s not already on is A study time reminder to tell you when to study and you can list a exam at a certain time to remind you to be studying your exam

by PlsListenToMuSuggestuons

Not too complicated, it’s a decent, nice and simple note-taking app. I’ve had it for 10 minutes and it’s already asked me 3 times to leave a review, so I hope that stops now. I can’t put text inside a box, I can’t only see to use the speech-to-text to type. The drawing part is pretty good tho, all in all an okay app.

by Whereisrodger

Everything is great but I only have one problem that’s stopping me from giving this a 5 star. When you close Notebooks it doesn’t save automatically. I’ve lost so many notes bc of this problem.

by Ariail's Note Reveiw

Notebooks works really well and I love how many colors to choose from when typing. There are also so many fonts and sizes to choose from I would recommend you get Notebooks and guess what it free!

by The District Resident

I’ve only had Notebooks for a couple of hours but it has asked me about 10 times to leave a review so I’m here and hoping that pop up will go away. Beyond that, it’s a cool app. It’s functional, pretty, & it gets the job done

by Beautiful Beautiful Princess

I love Notebooks it has a image feature and it really comes in handy at school! Or online during the pandemic! I do wish it had more features like different fonts, customizable etc. But
overall very good :)

by KateD630

My hand was killing me and I was taking twice as long to get my work done because of all the notetaking I had to do and with finding Notebooks it really made my life easier and I’m actually understanding the content instead of just writing it down and hurrying through it. really would recommend it. And the voice dictation saves me so much time

by Denniscd

More than a notebook with notes...There are many built in utilities that are all useful, and effective. The speech recognition is remarkably accurate, writing, typing, drawing and more are avaiable immediatel. Definitely worth the small investment for the number of multi functional built in apps that are held within. With a trial, it is a no lose proprosition to see if this fits your specific needs.

I really enjoy OneNote, you can do just about anything with it. From typing on your keyboard, to drawing on it or pinning a note in your action center. You can even send yourself a note to self through Outlook, which it will then be added to your tasks as a reminded or you can add it your Microsoft To Do List. I can’t wait to find out any other little hidden things that I can do with it. I wonder if anyone has anymore neat suggestions that can be done with OneNote?

by Izzy67890123

It is good enough but something that bothers me is how I can only make like three notes and then it’s useless so it doesn’t really help me that much but I like to use it and it’s free and it’s good and it helps me for school and just to write down things but I wish it was kind of more like the standard notes that Apple has but instead you have to pay or it was more like good notes

by BreevEazie

I was really excited to try Notebooks because I need a note taking app due to remote learning. I love how they this app are organized, but I was disappointed to see that there wasn’t a highlighter option. That would’ve been amazing. Now, I don’t know if I’m gonna keep it or not. Please fix this issue.

by M 5958

It’s really annoying.
Besides that it’s mostly like the notes app that apple comes with.
Hopefully now I’ve left a review they’ll quit bugging me

by Fatnuudles

Wish there were lines to take handwritten notes. Also wish the pages were longer or could add more pages.

by ✰𝘌𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢 𝘎𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘦✰

I hate that though when you try to add a new note you have to click so many things to be honest Notebooks makes me want a to write on just regular paper but I mean when I figured it out I mean it’s no that bad

by Happy Teenage Girl Lol

The only problem is the fact that you have to go back and proof read. Then again that’s much easier then having to type out the notes

by KAGEBats.com

Everything is as advertised, and works amazingly with the iPad pencil. Only thing, and I might just be overlooking it, but putting text inside a box doesn't seem to be possible.

by C0VER

A help file and would be great to be able to move files and folders but this is best in class after looking at many.

by CeCelia Jackson

Only one complaint

The pages keep bouncing when I want to go back and edit certain parts that’s all.
