It works.. but note editing in the app is better
The app works, it lets you connect to your Nextcloud and edit notes… it has no formatting options at all. Very round about ways to make lists, and if you tap anywhere in the editor it takes you there to edit even if you are just trying to scroll. There is a reading mode, but it doesn’t allow you to check boxes of you finally figured out out to make them. The notes section in the base app works way better, gives you all the editing tools you need. Just use that in my opinion.
Buggy but somewhat useful
Getting the menu that lets you paste to show can be an exercise in frustration. Tap somewhere to type and the onscreen keyboard will most likely cover the area your about to type in. If you dont refresh after closing a new note you created its likely to lose everything you just typed. Other than that it’s a somewhat useful app. Update: a bug that’s been here a while and still is after today’s update is that when you do a search, open a note, close the note, the search field is gone.

Good; useful
Works fine for me, syncing is certainly more reliable now than previous versions months ago. Enjoying new markdown view mode.
Needs Work
It is nice to be able to sync notes with nextcloud but this app seems to function more as a web wrapper than a native app. It disconnects all the time even if you are in the middle of editing notes. I wouldn’t rely on it but it does allow you to take quick notes which is useful.
Meh
Like a lot of Nextcloud’s offerings, it is pretty sub par. While they’re focusing on AI buzz words their core, and actually useful features languish. This app has a lot of potential. It’s a shame their leadership is chasing sparkly shiny things and not making their existing product good. I had a bear of a time just signing into my server
Feature Request: Save to Notes from other apps
This looks like a handy app. Unlike Apple’s Notes, it will sync to my Nextcloud installation.
It would be nice if I could copy documents to it via the “share” facility found in most other apps.
Also, initialization (adding URL, password, etc. so I could log in) was confusing due to lack of error messages and other guidance.
Thank you.
Doesn’t sync with offline mode on
I had to create an app specific password and log in.
Seems to work as long as I don’t toggle offline mode. I though I could leave that on and then manually sync, but that doesn't work.
Otherwise seems to work OK
Coming along nicely
Thanks to the developer(s) for the several recent improvements to this app. With the addition of better Markdown support, file-names/management improvements, and editor improvements in general, using this app is a much better experience.
Better Markdown-entry support and improved check-off list handling would be welcome improvements.
Getting better and better!
Been using this off and on for over a year now. When I first starting using it, it was a bit dated but it has really come along well with the push of updates. 👍👍
Slow
I like the format but it loads notes extremely slow.

Not production ready
App is missing core functionality such as: multi-step undo. No support for multiple accounts/profile-switching such as work/home. There is a strong focus on markdown instead of getting robust plain-text support to work first. Updates are not well tested in seem to introduce regressions as much as fix exising problems. Older versions which had fewer features, ran smoothly. As of 4.0.4, interaction is slow and clunk-clunk-clunky. Adding text to a note adds ~100ms delay per letter typed (with Notes
