This seems like an unfortunate name for a mobile app that doesn't have anything to do with notifications. I mean, I get what they're going for, but I don't think it quite works in this case.

That said, the app looks nice and I'll give it a try.

Yeah, I initially got excited thinking this was a new UnitedPush server or something, but alas.

My first thought as well. Way too easily confused with ntfy.

This is the best UI design for a notes app. Ideally I want the voice to text button to be more accessible and not hidden behind the keyboard.

Also syncing to could storage is vital these days.

Hmm, yeah there's no mention of cloud sync, and it advertises using "androids native SQLite database" as storage backend, which I imagine means you can't use a third party sync app like FolderSync or Nextcloud app which works with files.

"This project showcases the Good implementation of Android with proper architecture design"

Is hiding away text notes in a database rather than plain text files really what's considered "proper architecture design" these days?

I think easy backup and plain text export should be standard on all note taking apps.

What's up with the microphone access tho?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It has a text to speech option.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Makes sense.. completely missed that feature.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

If I had to guess, that's probably for the Speech to Text feature, so you can reject that permission if you don't want to use speech to text.
