Super buggy, constant pop-ups to upgrade. You guys ruined a great app. I’ve used this app for over 10 years now and have always enjoyed it. However, it’s clear the developers decided that they don’t want any more free users at all so I’ll be looking to migrate all my notes and recipes elsewhere (literally anywhere). Not only do you get a series of annoying pop ups CONSTANTLY asking you to pay money to upgrade to the premium membership, but now they’ve just capped the notes so you can’t even add any. I could deal with only having my notes on my phone with the free membership and didn’t need huge multi device integration, but I just wanted them to leave my one app alone and let me use it (I would only do a couple notes per month). Now, doesn’t matter how many new ones you do when, they’re just capped completely (so you can’t add any more unless you pay). Maybe next time, decide to have your app be a paid one at the outset instead of luring customers into having notes that will now take ages to migrate unless they shell out a sizeable amount of money to use your app. Seems it really is a money making scheme now and there are plenty of free apps that don’t have buggy pop ups like this one! Sad but I wish I never even started using this app. Oh and the desktop version won’t even load to let me copy my notes over (even though I revoked all other devices and even deleted the app off my phone) - use at your own risk!","authorHash":"a5e08dcbcf2edbc4ac368263b8cea1a3","rating":1,"offTopic":false},{"id":"eeb4a75e-8466-4c58-9e49-2525267eb626","excerpt":"Evernote: AI Notes & Notebook — Developed to Death — I was a long time subscriber as it suited me but the annual fee became too expensive for the limited service as more features were added but didn’t enhance functionality.
