## Review summary

Users appreciate Sidebar Note for its simplicity, ease of use, and effectiveness as a basic note-taking tool with helpful features like dark mode and context menu support. However, multiple reviews highlight the need for improvements such as syncing notes across devices, adding text formatting (Markdown, font size, bold), batch management options like deleting all notes, better customization including full color choices, and RTL text support. Overall, while it fulfills its core purpose well, users seek enhanced flexibility and cross-device functionality.
