Yet another update for Awesome Note!

Applications, Review, iPod touch/iPhone apps

Some time ago there came a update for  the Awesome note iPhone app. Because I have this application and I have done couple posts about it, I decided that it is good to post about the update also. There is couple new features that I like lot. Example new way to change themes, read only notes and ability to add images to notes.

But the greatest thing is that they finally fixed the “password protected” folders. Because now they are really secure. It is no longer possible to delete folder to see content of passlocked folder. It is also possible to lock the whole application.

Update to Awesome Note

iPod touch/iPhone apps

I reviewed Awesome Note some time ago on this blog. Now creators of Awesome Note have released new version, so I think that it is good to do small update to the review.

  • Stars – nice way to organize good notes away from random notes
  • Undo/redo feature – this is built in on iPhone, but not a bad feature
  • Todo feature – Create todo lists and tasks with due dates.
  • Sort features – sort notes via date, stars, due date and so on.

Awesome note is even more awesome with this update. I am bit disappointed that they haven’t fix the security problem with “secure” folders… But it is great application anyway :) Just don’t store anything critical on it.

(and yes, I have send a bug report about the security)

Awesome note for iPod touch/iPhone

Applications, iPod touch/iPhone apps

Awesome note is beautiful note taking application for iPod touch/iPhone. It is one of the coolest app I have seen. At home page of the application, there is nice list of folders where notes can be inserted. Appearance of folders and notes can be easily changed. Font size and family can also be modified.

Quick memo button allows you to create notes with just tap of one button. This is very handy feature if you are in hurry and need to just type your note to something. Later you can move the quick memo to normal notes or clear it.

The reason why I bought this app was Google Docs integration. There is two options for Google Docs. First is backup/restore of all notes another is for moving documents from/to Awesome note/Google docs. And it really works! It is fast, easy and clean. Documents with formation will be automatically cleaned for Awesome note, so easy to download document from Google Docs. Making changes isn’t so easy, because the formation lost. But for uploading documents to Google Docs, this is the best app that I have seen.

There is only two  minor problems that I would like to get fixed. First is way to change background of single note, there is only one button and it will only change to next theme, so if you want that last theme on the list, you need to click the same button many times, and if you accidentally go over the background you wanted, you have to start the changing again.

Another problem is the “secure” folder. The problem with it is that it isn’t secure. If you delete folder with password and choose that you want keep the notes, you can access them without the password!

It costs 2.99e. If you need Google docs integration or just Awesome app for notes, buy it.
