Comments on Simplenote for Android

★★★★★ Rounak Aung Aung · Feb 20, 2026
Just as the name suggests, a very simple, straightforward, easy to use cross-platform note-taking app with cloud sync. Perfect for sharing simple plain text notes across various devices.
★★★★★ Marianne Djudic · Dec 13, 2025
Love it! I used Outlook Notes for many years but when I recently got a new mobile I couldn't sync Outlook to my phone with Task & Notes. Simple note it just what I was looking for! Very tedious to copy and paste all my notes one by one from Outlook Notes into Simple note, but now that it's done I'm very happy!
★★★★☆ LaDar Moore? · Dec 27, 2025
I love this app, but there's 1 thing that needs added. I'm an aspiring author & am I using the app for writing my stories. The notes cannot be named or have subtitles, therefore the story title and chapter headings have to be added into the note itself, which messes with the word count of the story. Also, it would be nice if there was a FAQ installed that explained all features of the app. One of the features is a checkbox next to the word "Publish." Publishes to WordPress? That won't help me. 😩
★☆☆☆☆ Jeffery H. · Nov 21, 2025
"Simple note-taking app" that requires an email address to sign up for. A note-taking app that REQUIRES a profile with a working email address. Get bent.
★☆☆☆☆ Jannie Gerber · Feb 6, 2026
Created account with desktop app. Phone app refused to log in. Even tried resetting password. Uninstalled and will not use it!
★☆☆☆☆ Cosmin Smeu · Apr 15, 2026
The app can NOT be used at all unless the user log ins or signs up for some account somewhere! Awful user experience not to let users take notes and experience the app first hand without having to log in or sign up for something that isn't even explained at all why it's needed or why it's required!
