The highly awaited update to the Simplenote note-taking app is coming soon. The app will be unavailable on the App Store in the meantime, though. The devs at Simperium have stated that “it should only be a matter of days”, and I really can’t wait to see what they’ve cooked …

Awesome Note 4.5 ($3.99) adds a few interesting new features, especially for iOS 4 users. The new photo and detail notebook views are interesting (the former is especially useful for receipt notebooks), but the new swipe-to-return gesture takes the cake for me. Swiping your finger from left to right on …

Awesome Note 4.2 for iPhone: fixes Evernote syncing, sort of

Something about the last update of Awesome Note ($3.99) seems to have broken part of its Evernote syncing capability (or maybe it was Evernote’s Trunk rollout that broke 3rd party syncing?). The problem — which is now sorta-kinda-fixed in v4.2 — was that you could upload notes to Evernote, but …

Simplenote for iPhone updated to 2.62: auto-opened notes now sync properly

by on June 3rd, 2010 at 8:34 am

Although, technically, all changes to a note-taking app can be described as “notable”, there’s really only one that I think is worth mentioning. Launching the free Simplenote app will now start a sync regardless of whether you’re inside a note or on the list view screen. It took me quite …
