Comments on Notally - Minimalist Notes for Android
★★★★☆Robýn Rockoslavson· Jan 25, 2026
It's great in terms of automatic backup feature. However, it lacks time stamps in notes. Only adds a date when you create them. I think the developer should add this.
★★★★★Herms Boss302· Mar 22, 2026
I highly recommend this excellent small app. Simple, clean, ad-free, and works well for notes and lists. Only feature that would make it even better is colored fonts. Thank-you!
★★★★★Fawn Umbere· May 26, 2026
This is by far the best note-taking application, simple, efficient, add free, minimalistic. If I may, why is it called not-ally ? I think it is very misleading in regards to the benefit it globally provides. Why not Nola, notlè, Notes! Or libranotes for example ? Beautiful app in many case, thank you to the developer for the hard work.

WHERE'S THE SEARCH AND LOCK FUNCTION???
★☆☆☆☆AR Chowdhury· Dec 4, 2025
This app does not have undo/redo option, which is very important. And there is a backup option, but no restore option, strange.
★☆☆☆☆Geoff Phillips· Apr 26, 2026
All images are deleted when saving as PDF! Crazy.
