Post-it® Reviews

Not only does it handle really well. It supports an assortment of exporting tools. Files types like pdf, csv or even full blown app exports for powerpoint and even Trello for you kanban users out there.

I like it a lot actually. Now if you guys created a printer that could be loaded with sticky notes and have the thing print all my cards onto physical cards....we’d be in the best of both worlds. Because now I can still purchase and support physical cards on the fly and be able to just generate a board instantly and I would still be comfortable working on my digital or physical platform.

An even better idea would be to have a company that already houses your product, like office depot, offer this ability as a feature for the public. That way we can come in store, win for them and print our boards or cards out as needed with a specialized printer. Numerous wins here.

The camera feature already has the other end showed up in case we want to convert to digital from physical. But the reverse is needed to close the loop and make Postit fully functional in a more practical setting. Please add to roadmap. I think this would boost revenue on all fronts and could even become the next trend of how notes and boards are made.

Post it boards can even be developed with specialized fields in place just for Postit. The ability to mass print cards in the stores would be awesome.

I use this on a adjustable stand with my phone flipped wide, also with a stylus that makes it really easy to write. One thing i love about Postit would be the adjustable size of the note pads, also how easy and simple it is to use and how well Postit works. Very proper and smooth.
Things that can be improved on would be allowing the note pad to cover the whole screen and also being able to hide the selectable options, I find them distracting, and also maybe adding a button that would allow it to clear the writing, I find that the easiest way to clean up the screen is saving a blank note and having to go back to files and selecting , doing this a couple times made me want to comment that it would be nice if there was a clear button to make it easier to have a blank page with one button. Other then that Postit as very good!

It’s a great accompaniment to post-its. Very well designed, and now there’s an easy way to digitize all of those paper post-its, so you can still jot notes down on paper and then quickly photograph them with this up.

Aesthetically appealing, and surprisingly well executed.
Only thing I can think of is if you could move/copy post-its between boards; and OCR.
The iCloud backup is good, but I wish it would be a bit closer to instantaneous if you have Postit on multiple devices - I have it on my iPhone and my iPad, I tend to use the iPhone camera and it’s convenient, but I prefer annotating them on my iPad with the pencil. Sometimes there’s a significant lag, yes you can always airdrop them to your other device, but that can create duplicate boards - and for some reason individual post-its don’t airdrop (in post-it board format) and a board can get too large to airdrop, which isn’t super difficult especially if you do what I do and have a board per week of post-it activity (and I use post-its avidly at work);

So that’s what I wish they’d fix in one of their updates and adding the other two features mentioned would be nice *hint, hint* to Postit developers.

But this is fantastic!

I just started to use Postit. It is really nice—both simple and intuitive. So much is done so well, but I think there are some things it needs to make it more productive on the iPad especially when using a magic keyboard. When I leave Postit and come back it should keep my place, and not force me to zoom out to find my content again (it doesn’t keep state of canvas). Also, when in carrousel mode, allow me to edit text directly without having to do an additional click to enter edit mode (too many clicks). Also, allow me to select multiple notes at the same time so I can change color or style all together. Otherwise it’s too many steps. And lastly, make it more like the Mac version with the left side panel. This would make it more productive on iPad. Thanks.

Seriously! I’m so glad I found it. I have Apple Notes, Apple Reminders, Evernote, Trello, and Good Keep. None of them were able to help me organize my thoughts quite like the more visual Post It Notes app. The fact that it can be a widget and I could put important post it’s right on my front screen helps tremendously too. My only wish: that the multiple post its widget option looked prettier. I need to use it but won’t cause I don’t like the look of it. I just use the single note widget option and lost all my notes on that one post it.

Overall, however, it’s a app. Pretty. Easy interface to figure out once you play with it a bit. So good for visual people like myself!

The few things Postit does, it does very well. I’ve tried a few note taking apps and there’s something about this one that I find myself going back to it more than the others. It doesn’t have nearly as many features as the others but the interface is very clean and user friendly. Please continue to add features as Postit has a lot of potential. (Uploading pictures directly to board, control over font size, text color, double sided post it for memorization and studying, etc). Even with the limited features I still love Postit and will continue to use it.

Postit works great and does what it says it will do. It has a tiny bit of a learning curve because the interface is simple and elegant while the features can extend beyond the surface level controls. The sync is convenient and quite quick. Fantastic free app.

The handwriting is my least favorite part of Postit. Handwriting is modified and “corrected,” sort of “shaped” while you write. It might be helpful for some users, but I find it makes my normally neat tablet handwriting difficult to read or misshapen. It would be an incredible relief to have an option to disable the handwriting assist programming, or whatever it is called. It would be even more wonderful if there were writing size options, for smaller pen sizes.

If there is a way to ACTUALLY share a board, so that two people can both work on it and see each other's updates, it is well hidden.

The closest thing to this is to export it to a file that someone else can use, which is NOT sharing. If I mail you food, we are not sharing a meal. Sharing a meal means eating together and sharing a document means editing it together. Postit is awesome but badly needs the ability to collaborate. Until then it is only useful as a means to export to a real collaborative tool, like Trello. That is still very useful, but it screams out to be useful as it's own tool rather than an importer for something else.

I figured out that I can take a photo of (in additional to genuine Post-Its) other small paper notes (keep in mind though everything gets “squared off”). Although app states it’s not a note, I can retrieve the picture from the holding area to the right and crop it. Then, post to my Board(s). Then, it’s simple to arrange and organize notes. Of course, you can also create notes (handwritten and typed) within Postit , and choose various colors. Multiple types of backup and sharing are available, as well. Give it a chance, even though you don’t normally write on actual Post-It Note brand stickies.

I have been looking for an app like this for years! Other not taking apps aren’t much different from Notes installed by default. It made no sense to use any of them because Notes is automatically synced with my Mac and iCloud. Notes is a great app because it’s super easy to use and there are no distractions. The only thing it lacks is being able to view several notes on the same canvas, arrange them based on priority and enjoy some helicopter vision. Critical reviews mention issues saving and accessing notes. I really hope this has been fixed by now because otherwise this could be the most useful app ever! Giving it only 4 stars because I haven’t yet had a chance to test it thoroughly myself.

Post-it is a great app and looks like it could be very useful to me both personally and in business. However, one glaring defect is that if you use multiple devices and cloud sync, the favorite status of a note is not sync'd between the devices. To me that is the potential value of Postit - write a note on your iphone, favorite it so it shows on the home page widget, then it will also show on the home page widget of the ipad. Because you don't sync the favorite status this does not happen. You have to go to the ipad and separately favorite it there also. That defeats the purpose of making a sticky note that will automatically persist as a reminder on all your devices. Fix that and I'm all in!

I have to be honest, I have held on to Postit for months in the hopes that one day the simple process of transferring the random post it notes that r constantly scattered about my house to a cohesive, neat little package of post Its that I can easily glance over on my iPhone home screen....... but I can now say with certainty: it’s them, not me.
I don’t get it! I just want to stick little virtual post its on my home screen like I do with REAL post its, so I am forced to be reminded of said reminders, yet still see the screen and not have them fall off everywhere like the tangible counterparts do! If that is possible with Postit, than it is far more complex than it needs to be. I have spent many dollars on post it notes over my career, and I dare say I expected more from their makers in Postit.

I am the kind of person that needs everything to be IN MY FACE or I’ll forget so I have POST IT notes everywhere! I can’t remember to open an app to see my To Do List! So when I changed to IPHONE a few years ago and realized there’s no widgets I was pretty disappointed! But this last update ios14 finally has Widgets And POST IT NOTES has a WIDGET!! My only Complaint is I wish each screen could have its own individual widget and it not have to be the same widget even if it’s a different shape! I love it but I know between the brilliant minds of Postit and Apple IPHONE it can Happen!!! 🥰

You can literally take a picture of your post-it notes board/wall whatever and it will make a user friendly digital copy you can move transfer share and keep going about your life on the go. If you are like me and are trying to accomplish everything all at once while still giving fine detailed thoughts about each group Postit is for you. Let’s me start again if you do well with post it notes and are on the move this is how you take your board with you.

I like that you added iCloud support! I stopped using Postit shortly after I originally downloaded when I saw there was no iCloud support to sync between iPhone and iPad. However, two other things. First, please change there widget to disappear when I don’t have any post-it! notes favorited (kind of like the iOS app “Deliveries”. In that app, if you have a delivery, Postit will show up as a widget. If you, don’t have a delivery, the widget disappears.

Second, please make it more simple when it comes to “board” names. I thought I made a “board” name but then it turned out to be a combo name of 2 different post-it notes. Plus there are individual note names too. Please just have “note” names and “board” names & thats it.

I downloaded Postit ages ago, but never used it until recently. Now, that all my classes are online I started sticking Post-Its everywhere to remind me to turn in assignments and tests. I remembered about Postit, and started using it to better organize the tornado of Post-its in my room. And I love it! I've tried countless reminder apps and organization apps and they're always so complex and too involved for my needs. This one is straight to the point, simple, and doesn't bombard me with features as soon as I open it. My only request is that I wish you could select the thickness of the markers.

I read reviews where other people said they were enjoying Postit and I rolled my eyes. How could anyone really enjoy an app with Post-it Notes? Still, I figured I’d download it and give it a try then forget about it like I do almost every other app. Hours later I find myself writing down all the notes I have scattered across multiple writing apps in Postit. Gotta admit it was really fun organizing myself with Postit and it’s pretty easy to use. Definitely deserves 5 stars. I’d recommend others try it out, it’s well worth it.

I absolutely love Postit and I can’t believe it’s free. I used a lot. It’s simple and works really well. I have two complaints about it. The first is how sometimes it does not save. It doesn’t crash. But when you open the next time some of the things you worked on it’s gone. The other complaint it’s more of a silly one. Since it’s an app we could have a lot more post-it colors and fonts, I get it that they are only using the colors that it available for purchasing but still. I wouldn’t mind paying for Postit to get more features.

I love the post-it app! I used to always use physical post it notes and have them all over my monitor and stuff or if i just needed to jot something down, but if i left my desk, I couldn’t just easily remember it. Postit makes it super easy to scan my post it notes and sync them in icloud to all of my devices.

The only thing I wish was a little different was if we could underline or strike through the typed text in the notes. Some basic text formatting like that would be great!

Another thing I have noticed is that if i make a change to a post it note and the same note is set as a widget on ios 14, the widget does not update with my edits unless I un-favorite then re-favorite it to show up. It would make life easier if it also updated the widget after i edited the note!

Overall 5/5! I love how post-it has found a great way to stay needed even in the digital age :)

I’m a visual thinker and like to use real post-its (obviously, that’s kind of the point of Postit), and Postit works great with my system. You take a picture of your post its, and all at once Postit scans them all in, with their colors, and recognizes your handwriting. My writing gets pretty messy too, but Postit is very good at recognizing.

You can also use all kinds of sizes and colors, both when scanning in and when creating new notes in Postit . It’s a wonderful system. Simple. Works great.

I thought Postit would be kind of useless... but it’s been kind of life-changing. I have a color-coded board of 250+ post-its I’m using to organize everything my team is doing at work. I have calendars and lists and reminders, but especially for nebulous ideas, conversation-planning, brain-storming, long-term ideas that I can’t just check off on a list... I love being able to see everything visually (even if it’s kind of giving me heartburn to see 250+ things I have to do). I can even share with my team when I want to.

Postit is great for note-taking, too. I can organize notes on different research topics or ideas according to subject matter, so I can synthesize from different sources without flipping through a thousand pages in a notebook. The best part is having everything in my phone. Nothing to lose, nothing to flip through, nothing to carry around.

There are plenty of color options, but I would love a few more. And I’d like an option to just duplicate a post-it. Sometimes I just need the same idea in more than one place! Or even an option to move a group of post-its to its own board when an idea gets bigger than you thought.

I generally appreciate any app that is free, but this is beyond. Post-It’s app is fully functional, ad-free, and cost free. A company that depends on income offering an app free is impressive to me.
I am building my own boards and using Postit as a way to remind myself of important things.
I love being able to choose my color note and write and edit and organize and re-organize. Thank you post-it.
I would love to be able to type in a color of my choosing, but wouldn’t mark Postit down for such a thing.

Just downloaded Postit for some help with productivity. When I was in school, I used post its to figure out when to work on assignments, organized by color on a giant piece of chart paper. This might be the digital equivalent!

Love: creating boards and then grouping within a board; how easy moving notes between groups is; editing notes, so you can brain dump and organize later; choice between handwriting and typing

Things I’d love to see: ability to mark as done instead of just delete (it would be so satisfying to crumple it up!); scanning different size post its, as another reviewer mentioned; creating post its in different sizes (I like to prioritize tasks based on task size: small flags for tiny tasks, etc); more color pens!

Such a great little free app. I’d even shell out a few bucks to use some of the features I mentioned.

I love Postit. Everyone loves it when I use Postit and make post it note collecting look so easy. But today I went in to reference one of my boards and look at the photos and it asked me to update. It then started "converting all boards" which I wasn't aware it was going to do and in the process it can't "convert" two of my boards. Of course one of them is the one I needed today, right now. But it just says "2 boards not yet converted. Tap to retry." But I keep trying and nothing. It gives me a retry or a discard option. How do I get them back!!??

I have so many thoughts and ideas throughout the course of one day that I have never truly been able to harness. When an idea bubble floats up I have to capture it quickly and with minimal distraction to the bubble or it will pop. Crack open a note, use my stylus to jot down one or two words, and organize it into a board later. Simply SIMPLE. And colorful!

Everything about Postit is excellent - way better than I thought it was going to be. The boards make organization so easy. But the default font for Text is horrible when you type notes. I get that it’s suppose to look handwritten (with a fat sharpie it looks like, lol) but it’s really unappealing. At least give the option for a normal looking font.

Ive been looking for an app just like this and was pleased to find it.I immediately created a board and put a sticky note into it, but there was a feature that gave me confusion and i feel that it is unnecessary and should be a side option rather than a default. The groups within the board are very unneeded and interfere with the cleanliness and simplicity of the boards. The group feature within the board should be change to be optional so I can maneuver Postit easily and quickly

I’m on an iPad Pro 12.9” 2018 model, and when I capture it does take the photo. But then if I try to go back to the main screen, it crashes completely and doesn’t save my note.

Also if I take 1 note & then try to take another, again it’s an instant crash. There’s no way of capturing a note successfully and have it save it, very frustrating.

Postit looks neat, but is current completely unusable, since it can’t save even a single note. I’ll re-review it if it gets a fix in future update. Looked like a really neat app also, too bad.

I love this idea. But I’m wishing I could set an alarm on each post-it (date/time) so that notifications popped up on my phone. Sometimes I don’t remember to check the list, I get to rushing around and I’m afraid it will have been pointless. Especially bc I am starting new organization habits. Also, I “second” the opinion on wanting font selection. Looking forward to seeing how things progress with Postit.

I’ve used several note apps and they were all USELESS! You heard me. USELESS! I’m addicted. If you need a post it note but don’t have any, you can literally make your own! Color, text, draw. You can group it and share it! I’m obsessed. If you already wrote it down with an actual post it then you can scan it and get it and edit. You’ll thank me later.

If you could add the option for extra privacy features like a passcode lock for hidden boards, that would be great. I don’t necessarily want my girlfriend reading my self-help notes. Otherwise your app is excellent so far.

If you live and die by post it’s at home and work Postit should be a godsend. But, on my iPhone 6S I am only able to add new notes on the home screen, then have to add it to the “to do” group, then have to go into that group to add it to the others. I am unable to simply go into the to-do group and add another item, it CRASHES Postit . Too much time doing it the other way to be helpful. Also can’t figure out how to delete the sample groups Postit launches with. Hopefully there will be an update!
