1. ★★★★★accessibility and assistive-technology issues

   Can only fit 2 words on a line. Used to work but now only fits 2 words on a line no matter text size, position, or alignment, or note size. Too annoying now.

2. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

   Freeze. App won’t work

3. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   It STILL sucks!. You claimed to have “fixed some of the bugs“, but I still have two boards that are invisible until I click on where they’re supposed to be! When are you gonna fix that?! I’m still waiting for you to fix it!

I have no idea but anyways, I don’t care All I care about isAll IMy other apps are way better than this I thought this was gonna be great I was just wasting time definitely😡

   Doesn’t work for IOS 18!. It doesn’t work! The main page just stays loading and doesn’t show anything.

6. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Worst Notes App. Not only is it awkward to use, it wants access to your camera and your location. That prompted me to go see what else they were trying to slurp, I had turned everything available OFF in the app and iPhone settings, Including Camera Access. Invasive! Apparently, they think if they keep asking someone will inadvertently give them permission. Too invasive. Glad I hadn’t paid yet. Delete

7. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Bad. Doesn’t sync.

8. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

   Broken. This app used to work great for quick notes to self. iPhone 16. It no longer lets me update current notes and save the changes. What happened?

9. ★★★★★a needed feature is missing

   Explanation for why this app is so horrible is obvious:developers never actually used a Post-it. Have the developers ever actually used a Post-it? I don’t think they have so here’s a reminder: Post-it’s are little bits of paper with a little bits of adhesive on them. You grab one, write something on it, and stick it somewhere visible. When you need a real post-it you just use a post it. It’s genius. Very welcoming, very simple. With this app, all the simplicity of a Post-it is removed. Let’s say you want a post it on your Home Screen. To do that you need to make a widget, and to do that you have to create a board for your post-its, then create the post-its, then leave the app, then add a board widget to your screen, then select which post-its go on that board. The reason Post-It became a household name was due to its welcoming, easy to use functionality. No one has ever had to contact 3M requesting help using a Post-it. That’s never happened, not even once. You don’t have to log into the box it came in, and the product doesn’t keep asking you if you like it or not. Also did I mention it doesn’t work? Yeah after the update you can’t add any new post-it’s to your screen widgets because they only ever show the last post-it that was in the widget. It doesn’t matter if you’ve erased all your boards and post-its in the Post-it app, the first post-it you write is going to be the only one you can use as a widget. Uninstalling and reinstalling doesn’t fix the issue either.

    Cannote capture a typed notes. Cannote capture a typed notes

11. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Won’t Display. After the last update I can’t get the widget to display on my iPad. Used to be seamless, now worthless.

12. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Sad Day In America. Since I am constantly alerted to give a review. Stop hacking my iPhone

13. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Most horrible app. Nothing works. Impossible to use. Complicated and stupid.

14. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Last update. All of my notes are gone With the latest update. I am not happy.

15. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Still in the dark. No navigating details explaining how to achieve featured results. The few videos available stream too quickly and are gone in a flash. App is not user friendly for those who are not steeped in technology.

16. ★★★★★an update broke a familiar workflow

    No Longer Works. The newest update ruined this app. The whole point is to make sticky notes you can see on your Home Screen with the widget feature. Now you cannot see the text on the selected note in the widget.

17. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Over complicated. Awful user interface, app is too over complicated.

18. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Absolutely horrible app!. This app is partially responsible for the recent hack on my iPhone. Together with the Shortcuts app and Home app, along with my vast lack of knowledge on how to interpret analytics made it very easy. I only opened the post-it app one time and it went crazy.

19. ★★★★★data, history or progress disappears

    Terrible app. Lost all the notes. Even after sign in. What a waste!

20. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Excellent product EXCEPT….. Would be a wonderful product BUT very difficult (or in my case, impossible) to sync across devices. For me this makes it not worth using.

21. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    No instructions!!. No instructions, no tutorials! DUMB - even worse on my iMac

22. ★★★★★search fails to find what is needed

    What happened. After update,cant find all my post it notes. creating new notes and same update screen is on.

23. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Newest Sync Update Killed it. I keep getting a message on the Post-it app that says the document was updated somewhere ele and needs to reload. It’s so annoying and I haven’t received it before until the sync update. It was working perfectly before why did it change??? What a way to ruin the app. It synced well before the update, what is this?

24. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Not practical..... I wanted a Note that I could make a grocery list on but it wants me to type in the very center of the note and allows no more than two short words on each line because the Font is so huge.... no common sense written into this app... of little use. I see no settings or options to change anything to make it useable.

25. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    430. That was the worst app ever because it didn’t work, and it kept it wasLaggy

26. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    huge no-no. First thing after downloading this app, I checked the settings and made sure that it would store my notes on my iPad, and NOT on iCloud. A couple of days later, I was doing something unrelated when I discovered that THIS APP WAS STORING MY NOTES ON iCloud AGAINST MY WILL, and AGAINST MY specific instruction not to. I checked the settings in this app again to make sure that I had turned OFF iCloud, and indeed that's what it showed. Yet there were all my notes, ILLEGALLY on iCloud. I DELETED THIS APP FOR CAUSE........ Post-It and 3M were dishonest with me and betrayed me. I won't be buying any Post-Its or office supplies from them in the future.

27. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    1 star. Too complicated

28. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    ZERO SUPPORT. THAT’s why this app gets my 1 star. You don’t leave paying customers hanging!!!!

29. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Ahhhhh. This app is so hard to understand, i try every day to understand it, i pinned something to re-read later now can’t find it

30. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Keeps crashing. I really want to love this app, but it’s not usable
