User Reviews

Notesnook is praised for its privacy, cross-platform syncing, and value, with an easy migration path from Evernote/Standard Notes. However, users report recurring login and sync problems, new paywalls on previously free features, and mixed support responsiveness. It remains lightweight and capable, but reliability and pricing changes are key concerns for paying users.

Pros

Privacy-first design with encryption and strong data protection.
Excellent cross-platform syncing across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Windows, and Android.
Easy migration path from Evernote and Standard Notes thanks to built-in tools.
Affordable pricing with good value for the feature set.

Cons

Frequent login and syncing issues across devices, including long login waits and unreliable sync.
Paywalls and gating of features that were previously free (e.g., checklists) and the need to pay for essential functions.
Support responsiveness concerns (emails often unanswered; public responses without follow-up).
App lock and security features sometimes require payment and aren’t grandfathered for existing users.

Recent reviews

A great alternative to Evernote without the learning curve. Has most essential features and focuses on user privacy which is nice.

I’ve used a lot of notes apps trying to find the perfect one. This is it! Sync, encryption, export, markdown, attachments, this one has it all ands then some!
