In the last few months I've probably tried over 25 other notes apps and this is Easily the best notes app in the play store. The free version is great but the premium one is absolutely amazing. Just a very cheap one off payment instead of the subscription model that so many others use. It has everything I've been looking for (and even more stuff I don't need right now.

I have been using Keep My Notes for several years, and Folino is the first alternative I found that I liked. I'd like the ability to add embellishments to the title such as bold, like you can with the notes body. Also the ability to lock Folino with a biometric login would be good. You can backup all of the notes to your device, and export them all to text files in one go too, cool. Tobias was quick to answer his emails too, so important these days... it resulted in me going Premium 🙂.

Hi I like this app very much as it is so functional and easy to use. I am, also, using several similar "Note apps", on my device, in which the user can write notes from right to the left as well as writing from left to the right. As there are many app users, like myself, who's mother tongue is not English and their writing method is from right to left, is it possible to add a function to the app that would enable the user to be able to write notes from right to the left? Thanks Sam
