Notes 1.3.8.1

A simple and friendly application that allows you to create lists, take notes and view them at a glance

Most users like to keep on their phone's screen virtual post-it or sticky notes so as to remember meetings and other events, have a shopping list at hand or simply take down a few lines that will be inserted later on into a document.

Those who are seeking for one such app that runs well on Windows Phone have a lot of alternatives at their disposal and Notes is one of them. This little helper provides a simple method of making written records, which will always be at hand for users to view and edit.

Neatly designed and easy to work with front-end

This app offers a nice looking interface, with all the features at hand and customizable options for you to tinker with. Thus, there are several themes at your disposal, so you can modify the looks of the utility on the spot, while the various font sizes you can also go through and find the one that is best suitable for your needs further increases the value of this app.

Everything is easy to read, regardless of the color scheme selected from the "Settings" area, but wherever you move inside this app, you will be accompanied by a host of ads in the lower part of the screen. Also, there are some really insistent prompts to rate and review the app, but these can be deactivated by checking a box in the screen they display.

Creates notes on the fly and share them

Adding and editing notes could hardly be simpler because with one tap you open a new entry and you can type in right away. There is not even a "Save" button present nor is it necessary because the content is saved automatically, as soon as you close the note.

A very useful feature of Notes is the ability to share any of the notes via SMS, email or through the social networks you are subscribed to. Also, the Start screen tile makes it possible to view the last three notes you added inside the application.Nonetheless, individual notes cannot be pinned to the Start screen and there are no categories to better organize the content.

Bottom Line

Design / UI8 The interface is simple and practical, so all users can make the most of it with no difficulties.	Function6 The fact that notes can be added with one tap and shared easily is a big plus, but the app lacks many features other utilities have.	Security8 Even if it is a simple note taking application, Notes will require access to the owner and phone identities as well as to the multimedia libraries.
Battery9 While using this app the system resources are barely touched and the power consumption is kept low, so this utility seems quite battery-friendly.	Price8 Overall a good deal, Notes only needs a small fee to get users rid of the pesky advertisements that are shown throughout the app.	Compatibility9 The application will function properly on all Windows Phone 7.5 and higher handsets.
