Review summary

Users appreciate the app for its simplicity, customization features, and effective home screen reminders. The transparent widget feature is particularly praised. However, recurring complaints include intrusive ads during editing, problems with note updates not reflecting on widgets, limited text styling options, and some UI issues like scrolling effects and toolbar visibility. Despite these cons, many find the app reliable and worth using, especially if upgrading to the pro version to remove ads.

Pros

Simple and easy to use widget for quick notes and reminders
Highly customizable with options for font size, note size, background color, and transparency
Useful for placing visible reminders on the home screen
Pro version is affordable and removes intrusive ads
Transparent notes blend well aesthetically with the background

Cons

Intrusive ads appear when editing widgets, which annoys users
Some users experience issues with the widget not updating or displaying edited notes properly
Limited text styling options; no support for partial bold, italics, or multiple font types/colors within a note
Scrolling effect in empty or short notes interferes with home screen swiping
Toolbar becomes invisible when text color is white and background is transparent

2024-12-19	Go*****	I had an app like this on my old phone, but it did not work on my new phone. I forget about things all the time so I'm always jotting notes down. You can change the color and size of the font and the background. It's a widget so I'm able to move it anywhere - I have it on my home screen. I paid for the app, it was cheap and so WORTH IT!

2024-10-09	Cr*****	Does exactly what it says... Brilliant 👍 I use this app to help remind me of certain mindful ways. Anxiety is a problem for me, and having useful inspirations and reminders on my home screens are infinitely helpful. Thankyou to the devs 🌸

2024-10-03	De*****	Exactly what i was looking for. The best thing in the app is its transparent notes that can blend aesthetically with the background if executed well, a feature that nearly all apps lack.

2024-09-14	Le*****	I wanted an app simply to create a home screen widget that shows my phone number. After trying several, I like this one best. I can change the widget size, the text size, and the background color. It doesn't have features I don't need, so it's fairly small and doesn't need extra permissions. Now, when I was setting it up, every time I clicked on the widget to edit it, I got a full-screen video ad, but now that I'm happy with the widget's look, I never click on it, so I never see ads.

2024-03-29	Mi*****	I used to have an app called Easy Text Widget, but I've found out that it is not supported on my new phone. So I was looking for an alternative and this app is good so far. Im using it to get titles on my start screen. It doesn't have app shortcuts like Easy Text Widget, but that's okay. The only weird thing about this app is that it has ads. You barely need to use the app. Only for the widgets. So I don't think ads are a good way to make money out of it.

2022-11-07	Ro*****	I love this app. It's such a helpful easy to use app. I have used the widget to make myself a note so many times. It's really been a life saver in so many ways. It's very reliable, easy to use, it's free and the customization is the best. I can make my reminder jump out at me with the cool colors to choose from and by making it as large as I want. Or I can make it a small kind of hidden reminder so it's private but still helping me remember something. It's a great app. THANK YOU LOTS
