Review summary

Users consistently praise Simple Notepad for its ease of use, strong folder-based organization with color coding, and versatility for taking different kinds of notes. However, the app suffers from recurring reliability and usability problems: frequent ads (often with sound) interrupt work, crashes or failure to open after updates, and reports of notes disappearing or becoming inaccessible after upgrades. Some users also note poor iPad compatibility and the absence of features like a print option. Overall, the app is valued for simplicity and organization, but the ad experience and stability significantly affect satisfaction.

Pros

Easy to use with a simple interface
Strong folder-based organization and color coding
Versatile for various types of notes (notes, songs, lists) and easy to manage
Supports colorful themes or customization
Notes data generally persists across reinstall/reloads

Cons

Intrusive ads, including videos with sound, that play frequently
Crashes or fails to open after updates; reliability issues
Notes can disappear or become inaccessible after updates
Poor iPad/landscape orientation support

2026-02-08	Da*****	I used to love this app and use it all day every day but now it’s got these new ads with sound that interrupt your background videos - so you have to stop what you are doing and go restart your video then when you get back to the note pad again it does it again!!! And constantly!! repeatedly! I could see if I have closed the app, and then re-opened it, I could deal with that, but I’m writing notes to a teaching on a video and this is freaking maddening that it keeps stopping my video! I have to go find a different note pad. This will not work for me like this. I will check back one day and see if it’s back to normal so I can use it again because I really loved it until this started. I don’t mind ads - but ads with sound is way too much to deal with when you are literally trying to take notes…on a notepad. That’s what it’s for. 🙈😩😭

2025-05-09	ug*****	I’ve been using this app for awhile now. Love all the folders options and color coronating is great. But today it won’t open at all ugh. I have meal planner folder, work folder, information folders. I need this app to open. Also the only thing it could use is a print option and to OPEN WHEN I NEED IT TO OPEN. UGH

2025-05-09	Cg*****	I love this app and have used it for years. But with the May 8 update, it no longer opens - I tap it, might get to see my list of folders briefly, and then it kicks me out completely. Please fix!!!!
