“I searched for a note I wrote word-for-word just last week and search came back with absolutely nothing. If I can't trust search to find something that recent, I don't trust it with anything older either.”

“Search only seems to look at note titles and completely ignores the actual body text, which is where all the useful content actually lives. I have hundreds of untitled notes that are effectively unsearchable now.”

“Anything older than about a month might as well not exist as far as search is concerned. I've started keeping a separate list of note titles just so I can find things the app itself can't.”

“Editing the same note on my phone and my laptop within the same hour now reliably creates two separate copies instead of merging the changes. I have to manually compare them line by line to figure out which one to keep.”

“I ended up with four separate duplicates of the same meeting notes after what should have been a routine sync. Cleaning that up after the fact takes longer than it would have taken to just retype the notes.”

“When it detects a conflict there's no merge option at all, it just silently keeps one version and throws away the other. I've lost real edits this way more than once.”

“Once you get past a couple hundred notes the app takes several seconds just to open, every single time. It used to launch instantly and now I actively hesitate before tapping the icon.”

“Scrolling through my notebook list has gotten noticeably laggier every update, to the point where it stutters on a completely up-to-date phone. Something about how it's loading everything at once clearly isn't scaling.”

“I keep years of notes in here and now just switching between two notebooks causes a multi-second freeze. It's become the slowest app on my phone by a wide margin.”

“Photos I'd attached to several old notes vanished completely after the last update, leaving just a broken-image icon where they used to be. Some of those were the only copies I had of that content.”

“A PDF I'd attached to a project note for reference is just gone now, with no error and no way to recover it that I've found. I only noticed when I went looking for it weeks later.”

“Several attachments across different notes disappeared at the same time right after updating, which makes it feel like something in the update itself is the cause. That's a scary thing to have happen to notes I actually rely on.”

“I exported a heavily formatted note to PDF and every single bullet list came out as one long unformatted paragraph. All the structure I'd built into it was just gone in the exported file.”

“Checklists lose their checkboxes completely the moment you export to markdown, turning finished and unfinished items into identical plain text. It makes exported checklists basically useless.”

“A table I'd carefully put together in a note came out completely mangled after exporting, with columns merged together and no way to tell where one row ended and the next began.”

“I tried to share a note as a link with a coworker and it just failed with no error message at all, so I assumed it had worked until they told me the link didn't load. It's happened enough times now that I don't trust the share feature.”

“Generating a share link for a note works about half the time, and when it doesn't there's no indication anything went wrong. I've resent supposedly-working links more than once before realizing the problem was on my end.”

“A note I shared for a group project silently stopped working a day later with no notification to either of us. Nobody should have to double-check a share link actually loads before relying on it.”

“There's no option to lock or hide an individual note, so anything private I write sits in the same list as everything else anyone could see if they picked up my phone. A single passcode-protected note would go a long way.”

“I keep some sensitive personal notes in here and would really like the option to hide just those from the main list instead of everything being visible by default. Right now my only workaround is a vague, unsearchable title.”

“Every other note app I've used lets you lock individual entries, so it's surprising this one doesn't have any equivalent option yet. It's the one feature that would make me trust it with more of my notes.”

“My home-screen widget has shown the same note from three weeks ago no matter what I edit or create since. I've removed and re-added it twice and it still won't refresh.”

“The widget clearly isn't picking up new notes or edits in any reasonable timeframe, so I've basically stopped relying on it for anything current. At this point it's just decorative.”

“I use the widget specifically to glance at my most recent note, and it hasn't matched what's actually in the app for weeks now. Either fix the refresh trigger or let us manually refresh it.”

“Notebooks are stuck in whatever order I happened to create them in, with no way to drag them around to match how I actually use them. My most-used notebook is buried near the bottom of the list.”

“I'd like my most important notebooks pinned near the top instead of scrolling past a dozen old ones every time. Reordering feels like it should have been there from day one.”

“The lack of manual notebook ordering is a small thing but I run into it every single day, since the one I open most is near the very end of the list.”
