## Review summary

Users of Qnotes3 appreciate its note structuring, offline capability, and potential as a subscription-free alternative for QNAP users. However, multiple critical issues persist, including frequent crashes, unreliable synchronization with notes lost or overwritten, slow startup and connection times, and problematic login processes. The app's user interface is criticized for being unfriendly, lacking quick access to recent notes, and missing features such as checkboxes. These repeated problems detract significantly from the app's usability despite its promising features.

### Pros

- Good note structure and formatting.
- Allows offline notebooks, convenient for traveling.
- Releases users from subscription-based apps for QNAP users.
- Supports photo upload and sharing web pages to notes.
- Has potential to replace apps like Evernote.

### Cons

- App frequently crashes and is unreliable, especially on certain devices.
- Synchronization issues leading to lost changes or outdated notes overwriting newer ones.
- Slow loading and connection, especially when accessing remote services or shortly after app start.
- Poor user interface and experience, including lack of fast access to recent notes, empty home screen, and missing features like checkboxes.
- Login issues including freezing and long loading times with QNAP ID and 2FA.
