User Reviews

  • I have used PNotes for a long time and have found it to be very useful, but think it would be much more useful if notes could be shared back and forth between a PC and my Android phone. One other thing: If I have PNotes running on my PC, it takes over control of the F1 key for help. Even if another program has the focus and I press F1 in that program, it brings up the PNotes help.
  • The click and drag functions are WAY too sensitive for me. I like PNotes a lot, and I've used it for years, until recently. I had to switch to a similar NOTES desktop app because, too often, I accidentally select and drag parts of notes around without realizing it until I open the note next time. If I inadvertently click somewhere on the note, a portion will attach to the mouse pointer and be dragged around and become mixed in or lost somewhere. This is disastrous for passwords or phone numbers, so I've had to be super-careful. Anyway, if there was a way to adjust or disable that function, I'd gladly switch back to PNotes.
  • More robust than regular Microsoft Sticky notes. BUT there's no way (that I can find) to set where the notes are stored. I see they are stored in the application folder but I was hoping to set the location to a folder in my docs directory (or even a LAN share) because it's backed up regularly.
  • Thank you very much for the free open source program!
  • Congratulations, it's a good application. I'm just getting to know it but I'm interested in sharing the notes on the net. I think you can improve a little more if: 1) on the sticker, you put a quick button to change the color.
