About this app

Take notes even when you don't feel like typing! Just speak your note, and it will be saved as text. This notepad app was designed to quickly jot down your ideas, with minimal hassle. And it makes it easy to keep those ideas organized.

Features:

* Hands-free speech recognition at the press of a single button.

* Searchable. Notes are indexed for fast searching.

* Password protection option for notes.

* Share notes with SMS, email, Twitter, and any other app that accepts plain text.

* Quickly add notes. If you have a slide out keyboard, just slide it out and start typing.

* Accepts plain text from other apps that share.

* Password locked notes are encrypted beyond the first 20 characters. This allows you to be able to identify and search for the note, while at the same time have the rest of it encrypted with the AES encryption standard. This is the same encryption standard used by the US government and banks.

* Star notes with star filtering.

* Color-code notes and filter your list by color.

* Organize notes by category.

* Deleted notes are moved to the trash so you have a chance to restore them.

Added Features:

* SD Card Backup and Restore. Lets you make a backup of all your notes and stores them encrypted on your SD card.
* Continue button after creating your voice note, so you can add additional speech text if needed.
* Time to Breathe option - lets you choose how long to wait before stopping speech input.
* Full Screen and popup screen text editors.
* Quotation marks. You can now say Quotation Mark and it will place one in your note.
* Carriage Return. You can say Carriage Return to simulate pressing the Enter key.
* Category Sharing. You can share/export an entire category of notes.
* Light and Dark Themes.

Popular uses:

* Quick and easy note taking with speech to text. Your voice is "recorded" as text. Does not function as an actual voice recorder though.
* Text editor. You can use ListNote as a classic note pad, but with more speech-to-text functionality.
* Shopping list. Great when you want to quickly make note of something you'll need at the grocery store.
* Notebook organized with color tabs. You can make a color note tab by long-pressing a note and selecting "Change Tab Color".
* Simple note-taking. Many people prefer a notepad app that doesn't require you to make an account and upload all of your notes to a server. There is no account necessary with ListNote. All of your notes are stored on your own device.
* Dictation software. You can transcribe your thoughts quickly and easily. You can then edit the result like you would with any note-taking app. When you're editing the notes in the text view, you can insert speech anywhere in the text, and even undo the last speech input if it didn't turn out right.
* Secure notes. You can create safe notes that are private. These private notes are locked with password protection. When you lock a note it's an easy way to encrypt text from prying eyes.

Requirements:

* Google voice search is required for speech to text functionality to work. Most devices come with it pre-installed. If you don't want to use the speech recognition functions, the app is still fully functional without it.

I like this app. It works offline and easily makes notes from speech. It is perfect for creating lists. However, if I can't easily backup the data, I'm not going to use the app. Without the capability to backup/share to storage that I control, it is useless to me. Unfortunately, the other note taking apps all violate privacy or just suck. Anyway here's hoping this app gets the settings back and a good backup/sharing solution.

So disappointed in this app. Says you can back up your notes in the tutorial but the instructions don't apply to this app.The website listed for the app has no information on it, just a page with the name of the developer on it. The tutorial says you can retrieve items from the trash but there is no "menu" button in the app to access the trash. The tutorial appears to be for some other app. I've lost 100's of megabytes of data. Do not use this app if you have any data of importance.

This was once a great app. The android updates have given it grief over the years, from crashing when editing, to inaccessible. I've used it since 2014. Recently, it's pretty useless with the update on android losing the menu button. I had many notes over the years for a book, I couldn't lose them. So for those suffering this... this was and is my journey. I installed a menu button app from google play which then brought back the menu button so I could use the listnote menu. Then I backed up my notes using this option. However, there was no backup, nowhere, I connected the phone with USB and checked and scanned... basically it wouldn't back up. I tried various options. One option I didn't try was to move the app to phone incase it loses everything. The next and only option was to migrate the notes. One by one long pressed and shared with samsung_note. I'm hoping this will be more reliable. It's a shame, this app listnote had many things to offer, even in premium. Group and export by category, export to other formats, a simpler menu system as a side flyout, allowing acessiblity at least. So those struggling to access menu, try the menu button app. hopefully you'll be able to back up your necessary notes. If not, longpress and share with samsung notes. It'll be worth it in the end - only thing you will lose is the creation /modified date. Good luck!
