Noto - Elegant Note

This app is very good and functionally does what I need it to. I spent months looking for an app to replace my previous one that is no longer supported. This came the closest to doing what I need. It allows multiple folders and folders within folders, allows both video and photo uploads, allows manual organization and lets you put written notes within the folders (surprisingly some apps don’t allow notes or manual organization!) Like I said, functionally works great. Esthetically, it could use a slight upgrade. It looks almost sterile. The two biggest upgrades I’d like to see that would make it five stars is to allow inserting multiple photos at a time instead of only one by one and to have a number count for the photos. (Such as 1 of 20 etc). I use this to organize my collections using photos and it would be nice to know how many I have simply by clicking on one of the pictures. Edit: I’ve been using this app for two years and sadly there have been none of the updates I’d love to see. I add multiple pictures and it is soooo tedious to have to add them one at a time.

This app is honestly the best note taking app there is in my experience, and I’ve tried a lot. Its smooth, fast, and lets you make lots of folders and organize things. It also has decent manual export options if you’re not into backing them up ways that are unfortunately more popular now. All that said, the big issue is the app has a couple really annoying bugs as I write this. Mainly you can make a folder completely unusable to where you can’t even access your notes if you copy and paste hyperlinks from bingai I believe and they won’t help you get those notes back. In addition, folders somehow get messed up and won’t make your most recent note appear at the top so you have to search for it every time or move everything to a new folder to correct this. So yeah, support is lacking a lot to the point where I may have to switch apps at some point, but really I don’t want to. I paid for this and I really think it is the best note app by far, and with no subscription as well. So I really hope they step up their support.

This is the best note organizing app I’ve worked with yet. I was a longtime Evernote user and then have used Bear hardcore for the last two years, but needed more organization than tags can provide. My choices came down to Notion, Craft and Noto. Noto wins for my purposes. Notion is too clunky and Craft doesn’t allow for manual organization of notes only sorted lists. Noto not only allows for manual sorting, but makes it instant, intuitive and fun. As I organize thoughts and documents, that is what I want. Now as for room for growth, I would like to see expanded export options. Getting imported content into Noto is a snap, but getting it out seems to be a note by note affair, no group exports. This needs to happen to make this a serious app and is really the only weak spot of great magnitude. Cosmetically, I would like to see more color options for folders and notes, but it’s no deal breaker. The short: the more I use it, the more I like it.
