Excellent app! Thanks so much Braden for making this! It's the first notes app that isn't loaded with ads, let's me backup and restore, doesn't require excessive permissions , and doesn't need a subscription fee to use. I really would like to pay a one time donation since I think it is worth it. Please consider making this an in app purchase or release a pro version that can bought separately.

Edit, been using it for several years now and think adding feature to search for words would be nice considering the degree of content that can be saved in a single note. Excellent and efficient. Have been using it for a long time without any trouble. It is compact and to the point without childish bells and whistles. Perfect and thank you. Other apps should follow your footsteps.

Great app. I have almost notes. However, recent update created problems: 1. Agree with others that you can no longer paste into an empty space; you can only paste over occupied space. 2. When you Save a note, it no longer adds a numeric digit to the Original Backup file; instead, it adds an underscore "_". 3. When you exit a Note (after creating, editing or viewing it), Notepad takes you back to the Top of all of your notes, instead of the location of the recently accessed note.
