It depends on what you want, but it's buggy on my phone and I've found some of the changes disappointing. I think there used to be more formatting options, like headers. I've lost a link from one of my notes by accidentally deleting the text, and the undo button wouldn't restore it; instead, it started adding new letters to my words, like "attttt". Bizarre. I'm also having bugs with the group feature unintentionally deleting things, but fortunately there's a trash can.

I really liked this app with the free version. Everything worked as described, it was fast with lots of options to personalize things the way I want. However after purchasing the paid subscription, the quality dropped significantly & there is no response from customer service, the knowledge base is confusing & impossible to search & many features no longer work. Very disappointed.

I migrated from Evernote which worked at first. However, none of my audio clips transferred and now all of my images are missing from my Evernote files when they originally transferred over. Fortunately I still have my EN account so will be switching. Also, you can't combine photos and text. That doesn't make any sense. If I just wanted to keep a photo, I don't need to do it here. I need to be able to make a note related to the photo. None of the help links work either or opening the web.
