What do you like best about Simplenote?

I like how minimal and simple it is for ANYONE to use. My mom used it for a grocery list and also for party planning supplies. I use it for everything including daily tasks and just to prioritize certain things in my daily routine. Even my kids chores have been able to be jotted down or projects. I also like that it works on any device. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Simplenote?

The delete button is too close to other buttons and minimal formatting options but that’s probably the point in the program hence the name. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A glorified desktop post-it note (minus the glory)"

What do you like best about Simplenote?

Simple layout and motif, good use of white space.

Free form in scope, let's you type Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Simplenote?

It simply doesn't give you nearly enough WYWSIG options. Can't bulletise or numerical order. Can't highlight anything, can't embolden. It really isn't much better than a basic desktop post-it note. Nowhere near the same scale as Evernote or OneNote. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple as its name"
4/5
What do you like best about Simplenote?

It's ultimately simple for note taking and make quick to do lists. The best thing that I love about SImplenote is their design and features which they are only providing significant and most important tools instead of meaningless tools. Because if you are using note taking program then you need only few functions to complete your needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Quick note taking app"
4/5
What do you like best about Simplenote?

The tool is straightforward note taking app and doesn't need much training to be productive. Mobile sync works well and has software support for all the major platforms. Organizing the notes can be done using tags. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Simplenote?

If you have a large number of notes then organizing will become a challenge. This tool lacks option like multiple notebook, rich text editor, checklist creator, adding images/videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple Indeed!"
5/5
What do you like best about Simplenote?

The simple interface doesn't make you think too much. It's like a more robust version of Apple Notes, or a less cluttered version of Evernote, striking a nearly perfect balance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Simplenote?

The potential of creating repeated tags and getting disorganized is real. But, if you can keep consistent with tags this shouldn't be an issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A simple note taking tool"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Simplenote?

It's super light-weight. It does what you need it to do without drowning you in features you probably won't use. It's free too! The sync with the mobile app is almost instantaneous. That sounds like a silly thing to like, but you appreciate it when you add to your notes on a desktop then use your phone minutes later to reference them while in a meeting.

What do you dislike about Simplenote?

It's easy to lose track of old notes. Lack of multiple notebook functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
