Noto is a modern writing app. With delightful interactions, powerful editing tools, and a beautiful design, Noto helps you capture the best of your everyday life.
Not a fan of the unskippable intro video when you first open the app, versus a simple onboarding you can swipe through or just going straight into opening the app. Otherwise very fluid interface, flexible note features.
@the_introuvable lifetime unlock is separate between Mac and iOS. Apple didn’t provide a way to easily share in app purchases between platforms. And we would rather build more features than to setup a backend server handling this.
In future we might consider introducing a shared subscription alongside the lifetime unlock if we have more resources.
My initial hunch is that this is a substantive first version. It just "felt" right and I want to see where this goes so I jumped on the Lifetime license and will test mainly on my iPad and see if the Mac version is a go a well. Keep up this good work.
It is so smooth when I first open and use the app. The unique feature is inline table, you can insert an image even a video with a nice interface. Looking forward to more new features…
So what's the major difference from Notion?
I just moved all my notes from apply notes to Notion and Noto seems to be literally the same, but looks still more like notes.
@haitianwatcher Pinning and app lock will come in future releases. For this first version we want to nail down the editing & organization experience. Please keep your feature suggestions coming!
I don’t remember seeing any notes on sharing. How does this app handle sharing and what forms of sharing are curry available? When you share something, does it also share the pics, videos and attachments?
@haitianwatcher Right now we don't have a built in way to share or collaborate. There are however export options to export the note into text, PDF, HTML, or JPG. Noto stores your note content and attachments in a custom container, a `.noto` file, which is sharable. But right now you have to manually grab the file and send it, and ask your friends to store it inside their Noto's iCloud Drive folder to see it. In future we should be able to make this process very easy, allowing you to send via mail or messages, and the other person can open it right in their Noto app. markdown with attachment export is also in the work.
@luke_zhao Hello Luke, Thanks for the update. Can you include the option to open a link(s) from the Noto app. It would be awesome to be able to open a link with the option to select a browser ( Firefox, iPhone browser or Google)?
If I type an address in the app, I would love for it to give me at least two options to open it in a navigation app e.g. open I. Google, Apple or Waze option. Also if I into a link to the app for an address, I would like for it to be able to open to navigate as it n the previous example. I would love for it to also open all links entered.
Hey guys, thank you so much for the interest in Noto!
After discussing with my teammate. We decided to expand the lifetime license to mac so that you guys don't have to pay twice. That is going to delay the mac app release for a little bit more because we just had it implemented today. Will submit to Apple tomorrow and release after it is reviewed.
Note that the price of the lifetime license will increase when the mac version is released (targeting this Thursday, Oct 17th if we can get it reviewed in time). We will also introduce a monthly and a yearly subscription price along with trial periods.
The price will be:
$0.99 / month (3 days trial)
$9.99 / year (1 week trial)
$24.99 / lifetime
The price is higher than what it currently is because the license is shared across platform.
So if you want to get a lifetime license for both platform, now is the time to get it at 60% off the regular price!
This new update that we are submitting also contains:
* Various bug fixes.
* Fixed the crash when tapping "Support & Feedback" button when you don't have a mail account.
* Ability to add drawing attachment on iOS 13.0 and above
* Ability to skip intro video
* Ability to reduce animation (wobbly effect)
There might be bugs initially with the shared app purchase. If you don't see your license being synced to mac, please don't purchase another license. Contact us at feedback@noto.ink and we will sort it out. You might also need to restore your purchase on your iOS device when the app updates due to the purchase upgrade.
Thanks again.
