Love Ruff, the best note-taking app there is. No bloat at all and it's fast and responsive. Only 4 stars because widget has a couple QOL issues. The edit button on the widget is very invasive for screen placement (option to make it invisible but still press able) and the fade effect on text on the widget make its look odd if you made the widget small vertically.

Good little all with some feature requests: Scrolling up/down on the bottom bar is broken when a swipe down from the home bar triggers system notification I want to create multiple widgets, each linked to a different stash. That way I can use multiple stashes to track different to-do lists. Otherwise, LOVE the widget UI.

This app is perfect for non-permanent (especially voice) notes. The highlight feature is probably the large widget which gives you an incredibly accessible sort of whiteboard to organize your thoughts. Literally don't need to make a single gesture other than tap the edit button and your immediately taking a note. Going to swipe up to exit. But it's not an equivalent to Google keep or easy voice notes or something. Those are more permanent. But those can clog up storage and file space.

A great note-taking app, but it really needs the option to back up notes to Google drive.

Garbage app. You can only access one note page. Other pages you create are covered by a nag screen to buy the pro version. Totally useless. Uninstalling it. Bye bye, bad app.

Too plain for my taste... The key selling point used for this app is "note on the go." Well, even "on the go," I prefer to use multiple fonts when writing my notes and having the ability to save those notes under different labels or into different folders. I also prefer to write down my thoughts, which is why I find the ability to password my notes as a plus. Additionally, I have found the ability to back up my notes extremely helpful. For these reasons, this app falls below expectations imo.

The widget keeps changing into light theme after you close the app which is a no no.

It's basically impossible to select any text in the middle of your document because the scrolling when you highlight text goes at break neck speeds, and whenever you try to slow it down, it goes backwards at the same speeds. You should give us the option to add chapters/bookmarks, or even start new pages. That would probably avoid this issue. I wish I didn't have to scroll past 5 or 6 different things to start writing again.
