   I have used Ink Pad for years. It allows you a lot of input up to a certain amount and then you pay a very low monthly cost. if you want to. I could have stayed with it for free, but my notes are important to me and I wanted to use ink pad with a lot more information so I paid my monthly subscription which was only $6.00. it will continually make you put in your password which keeps what you have in there safe from prying eyes. My password is just a very quick and simple four-digit number.

   Love the app. I have used it for years. it's easy to go between the app on my phone and my computer. Though I am currently having an issue with the app where it stops working and a little pop up comes up stating it has stopped working and to close the app or wait. it has gotten to the point it's as soon as I open the app. I would like to keep using the app but if it keeps crashing I'm going to have to find something else. Is there anything that can be done to fix it?

   Cloud backup saved my bacon. I have used it on several different android phones. It works great! I should have said it used to work great. I used the free version for years and had to use the old restore a few times. The "Modern" version apparently was released a few years ago and I didn't notice. Now I cannot get to the last prior version of a note that was inadvertently deleted unless I upgrade to the premium version with what I consider to be a huge price tag.

   I have been using this app for years with no issues. However, last month most of the notes in one particular item mysteriously disappeared/deleted. The info is critical for 5 people I care for. I have no idea what happened. It is not in the trash. I messaged support 3 times and have not received a response. I also attempted to purchase the upgrade for the app, but I don't know the password and there is no option to reset it. I would truly appreciate any assistance.

   I used to love this app, but it removed the option to sign in with email & password. I was logging into a new device. Only options were to sign in with Google or Apple. Very disappointing. Bring back the option to log in with email and password. edited to add...at some point you could sign in with a gmail email AND a password. I also hate all the AI features and as others have stated the insane price increase. If that is to offset the expense of AI. We do not want it.

   Hi Allison! Inkpad has always required a Google account to sign in, and Apple Sign-in was added a few years ago as well. Is it possible that you were using a different app in the past that allowed you to sign in using email and password? If you contact us at support@inkpadnotepad.com we'll be happy to answer any additional questions.

   Originally it was very simple to use with no fancy overhead, so lightweight and zippy. Plus I loved the ability to sync to the cloud to share across my devices and PC. HOWEVER the updates force AI in your face and we are not able to roll back to the 'classic' simple version without it. IT NOW RUNS LIKE SNAIL ON MY TABLET because it auto-updated the app version. NO THANKS developers. :( I'm actively looking for an alternative.

   I love this app and have been using it for years. But having issues with the communications and billing now. After updating for a yearly paying option instead of monthly, after paying the yearly fee, I still keep getting charged for the monthly and there is no communication after emailing the InkPad team about getting reimbursed.

   Inappropriate ads continually running at the top with scantily clad women. Also, when I am often erasing, it suddenly goes into hyper speed and erases far too much. I have lost a lot of info this way. But due to the ads, I will be looking for a new notepad app, after many years using this one. This cannot be an algorithm thing because I don't get those types of ads anywhere else.

   it's an amazing platform to write notes, use it for a grocery shopping list..., or if you're anything like me, you'll use it as a personal journal to write all your poetry onto it. It's an app, my only gripe is there's no fingerprint as one of the unlocking features and the number code is only 4 characters long, I'm not a huge fan of that.

    Ruined by putting things behind a paywall. This used to be a simple note taking app with small ads because people need to make something, I get it. Now there's large ads and a"carousel" that takes up half the screen that I cannot remove or resize without paid version. I am uninstalling and looking else where for something simple for taking notes.
