Verdict
Notebook is praised for its clean, simple interface, but a meaningful share of reviewers report sync failures, freezing, and features that used to be free now locked behind a subscription.
Best for
Someone who wants a straightforward note app for basic text, checklists, and photos and doesn't plan to rely on cross-device sync or premium AI features.
Dealbreaker
Several reviewers describe unreliable sync (duplicate notes, failed syncing) and app freezes, and features once free are now behind a paid subscription with reported billing/restore issues.
The facts.
