e-Notty

e-Notty is a fairly good note taking app, supports several themes and has a lot of the necessary features. You can quickly create new notes with the Android widget, link notes together, create a note with your voice (aka speech-to-text), and have a note read to you (aka text-to-speech).

I tested a previous version of the app and the developer has since addressed a few items. It's not the top of the heap as far as note apps go but it's still pretty good.

About

• Rating: 7/10
• Version: 0.68
• Device: Samsung S20
• Play Store rating: 4.5*
• Developer: Maks Kazantsev (aka Max Wayne)
• Play Store | Privacy Policy
• Location: Novosibirsk, Russia

Ugly

• Switch to advanced editor removed all my newlines ugh
• Privacy policy links to alarm clock privacy policy
• Note previews in grid view are too small to be useful
• In the note list the "Create" (should be created) and "Last change" take up top much real estate in the note list
• Would prefer the save button to be on the bottom toolbar to the right where my thumb is :) same for undo (and redo when added) and same for speech to text microphone icon
• Grammatical errors throughout the app and in the sample notes

Bad

• The default font size is too big but good that it can be changed
• "All fil... " label to the left of the folder icon is not readable
• No redo but does have it in the experimental editor
• No formatting but does have it in the experimental editor
• No bullets but does have it in the experimental editor
• Image thumbnail is too small (in the previous app it was too big)
• In the note list it doesn't have a thumbnail of the image attached, just some odd icon that you can change
• Export does not include attachments
• If I add a link to another note, I have to give a name for it. It should just use the title of the note and not prompt for a name
• If I open the menu ":" while editing a note and then click the note text, it should hide the menu. I have to manually go back up and click ":" to close it ugh
• The menu is too wide, should capitalize the first letter of every menu item and left align their text (not center align)
• Checklist UI is awkward
• Speech to text should inject the text where I have my cursor, no need to prompt me to put in title or note

Good

• Password protected folders
• Undo
• Import from text file
• Export to text file
• Notifications
• Checklists but they're different items, not inside notes
• Option to Save notes on device
• Audio recording

Great

• It can read the note to you (text to speech)
• Password on specific folder
• Themes

Awesome

• Link to other notes
• Speech to text
• Fast note widget!
• The widget to see the folders and notes is so cool, love it
