User reviews
Doesn't support tags!? Why would you do that? Why would you not have tags? SimpleNote is so simple, it has no notebooks, no folders. The only thing it has is tags.
Making a SimpleNote app without the tags is like serving soup without the bowl.

Abben Maguire, 2017-04-14So far so good. I rely on Simplenote to sync to Scrivener, so I'm grateful to have this app on my Chromebook. Thank you developer. After using it for a couple of days now, I would be really grateful if a future release could have an option to hide the sidebar with all of the notes for full screen distraction free writing.
