Once you stop paying ALL your notes disappear. None tells you this upfront. Should be 0 Stars for that reason alone. 1000s of notes gone!!! Beware!!!!!

Good thought but unfortunately disappointing experience: 1) It doesn't add notes as sticky notes like shown on the picture 2) Stretches the whole email body when using inline notes, i.e. highlighting anything in the email to add a note. The note is squeezed into the text making any text with a lengthy not not really readable anymore. 3) Cannot change colours. Blue background, black notes, cannot read my own notes I take. 4) When inline note taking is activated it always refreshes the email which costs not only time but also moves the entire email body up and down a few times when refreshing it.
