Users broadly describe Simple Notepad as easy and convenient for quick note-taking, with several reviews noting it keeps notes and has a positive overall feel. However, recurring issues include data loss or save failures, disruptive ads, limited backup/restore options, and occasional crashes. Some users also report difficulties saving or exporting. Overall, the app is appealing for its simplicity, but reliability and stability problems undermine user trust.

2023-11-19	C.*****	Horrible, buggy app, it erases entire notes when you try to save, you lose everything. The ads are obnoxious, seems like every time you use a function, another long ad comes up. Don't waste your time, or lose all the text you can't get back. Update: This app doesn't allow you many backup options, had to do it manually. Uninstalled, and not coming to my new phone.
