Review summary

Big Note is a user-friendly app designed to assist communication, especially helpful for hearing-impaired users by allowing easy adjustment of text size and background color, and features speech-to-text and note saving. However, multiple users report intrusive ads without a way to disable them despite prior payment, and others desire features like a clear button, landscape mode support, and quick access widgets. Overall, it is valued for easing communication but has room for usability improvements.

Pros

Easy to use with simple, clear interface.
Ability to adjust font size and background color for better readability.
Helpful for communication with deaf or hearing-impaired individuals.
Supports speech-to-text functionality.
Saves and stores notes for reuse, aiding in conversations.

Cons

Intrusive ads, even for users who previously paid for the app, with no option to disable them.
Lack of a clear button to quickly erase all text.
App does not support landscape mode, causing frozen screens when rotated.
No widget for quick access to the app is available.

2022-12-07	Co*****	Very helpful in my line of work. Wish it either didn't have ads or had a one-time fee for ads instead of an annual subscription, but it otherwise works for my needs.

2022-11-13	Je*****	I use this in noisy places. I have a quiet voice and refuse to yell. Also use for my mom, she is losing hearing. Quite helpful. Handy for some espresso orderers- if the barista pays attention. I have noticed a decline in people's ability to visualize and remember. So this sometimes helps.

2022-08-20	T *****	Very useful as a deaf user. Every time I ordered something at the restaurant -- Some notes were already listed and I can pull out easily without typing and simply show it to the hearing person. This app can contrast, enlarge text, and saves notes. Always use it in every phone I use.

2022-01-10	Oz*****	Clear button is required. After typing lots of text, it would be easier to delete all text with a single button instead of selecting all text and pressing backspace.

2021-01-11	MV*****	It does not work in landscape - it's just a frozen screen. Funny. I thought an app like this would SURELY have the ability to have a landscape mode? But alas, I have overestimated the developer of this app.....
