## Review summary

Most reviews praise the app as useful for notes and studying and compliment its aesthetic design and ease of use, with many expressing love for it. A dominant negative theme is the ads: they appear too often, across many actions, and can be hard to dismiss, significantly hurting usability. Some reviewers also note missing features or limitations (e.g., fonts or stylus support) and feel the app is more about ads than note-taking, though these points are less frequently mentioned.

### Pros

- Useful for taking notes and studying
- Aesthetic and visually pleasing UI
- Easy to use / intuitive
- Positive overall sentiment (users express love for the app)
- Free to use with no mandatory payment mentioned

### Cons

- Excessive and intrusive ads across many actions (opening the app, creating folders, exiting folders)
- Ads can be hard to dismiss or unskippable in some cases, impacting usability
- A few users feel the app is more of a typing app focused on ads rather than note-taking (limited perceived functionality)
