On an unrelated note. I've been working on a clipboard management app.

If you have any ideas of features you'd like, feel free to PM me or post here since there is no topic yet. How it works...it runs as a service and catches all text copied to the clipboard. There is a notification icon that will update with the latest copied data. So far you can:

- Sort via alpha, oldest, newest, modified date

- Export to SD

- Share

- Edit/delete clipping

- Copy existing clippings

- Add custom clippings

- Delete entire db in one go

- Backup/restore db

- When viewing a clipping it will display copy date, modification date, words, chars

Also here is what the main screen looks like. As you can see there is 3 clippings saved and the most recent is from deviantart as shown in the notification tray.

Extensive Notes Updates

New to the forum. I just purchased Extensive Notes Pro. Awesome app with more functionality than I will likely ever use!

Is there another forum thread like this specifically for Extensive Notes? Is Extensive Notes getting all of the same updates that are listed here for Classic Notes?

Thanks for a very useful App! Your work is greatly appreciated.

Hi, glad you are finding it useful! It actually has most of the features. Classic notes spawned from extensive notes because many people liked the features but found the UI too confusing. So the goal was to make something simple and easy to use but provide the powerful features to people that wanted them. BTW, if any of you guys following this thread care to test out a clipboard manager I just released it would be most appreciated!

Link to the XDA thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=36191169#post36191169

Any bugs please post there :)

Hello I must say I realy like this app as others already said it has probably more features than one person can ever use and I like that :D I just found one security flaw and that is the following. You can mark notes as private and if you want to open them you have to provide a password ( this is a great feature I must say) the only problem is that if you do an export to a text file (I did not yet tested all the other options) everything is exported to (world readable) text files including the notes you marked as private.

I don't know how hard it is to implement but it whould be nice to have a popup before the export that asks for a password if you have private notes. If you don't supply the correct password or cancel the box away only the public notes are exported.

Uploaded update:

- Added option to copy todo tasks to other todos

- Homescreen shortcut now have the option of creating a custom title

Re: [APP] Classic Notes + App Box - More features and apps than I care to list

Also notes marked as private are not exported as text files anymore, thanks for that....
[Android Apps and Games] realn:
Hi, I was looking for a notes app on Android. I tested almost a dozen, out of which none was doing what I wanted.

And my requirements are not that crazy: import/export to text files; private notes; pin notes to status bar. That's all I want to do.

Classic Notes, however, was the closest one from what I want. Below you will find my comments on your app:

- notepad with simple editing - the notepad is OK. However there is that left-side empty unused space. What's its purpose ?

- export/import to/from text files - working OK

- pin to status bar and private notes. Here is the main issue which prevents me from using your app. In fact, there are a few issues:

- a private note is displayed in the status bar with the beginning of its content . Expected behaviour - display only its name/creation date (see colornote - that I found second to your app, but doesn't support export to text files)

- a private note can be opened from the status bar without asking for password. Expected behaviour - always ask for password on a private note, no matter who you are, no matter where you come from

- the same note opened from the status bar behaves differently as if opened from the main app - when hitting "done" (or back key) it closes the note in the first case, whereas in the second case it gets me to the main screen of the app. I would prefer the latter behavior for notes opend from the status bar, too.

- if a note is updated - changed title or content - these changes are not reflected in the status area. You have to re-add the note to the status bar in order to see the changes.

Can you please post some feed-back, especially about the private note being opened without asking for the password ?

Thanks a lot for you almost perfet app, anyway !
[Android Apps and Games] plbelanger:
The left space issue is because it's supposed to be legal ruled notepad. The vertical lines along the left are margins. The status bar issues you mention, thanks for telling me I will have to fix them :)
[Android Apps and Games] realn:
Hey, thanks a lot for the reply. Please let us know once those issues are fixed, that would make at least one more happy customer.

By the way, I see there is a donate version of the app on the market. Does it have anything in addition, or is it for the really satisfied customers?

A few more remarks:

- please could you add the capability to customize (specified by the user) the export folder ? Like this I can backup (in fact save) my notes directly on the external_sd, which I regularly backup. Or is it already done and I haven't found it?

- is it possible to register Simple Notes as an app to be used for opening "txt" files from a file manager?

- the "more" menu is somewhat longish. Would it be a good idea (if possible) to make submenus instead of radio-box? Like this, you can group things together, like reminder and add to status bar can be put together in a "notifications" sub-menu. I'm saying this because I always went up and down a couple of times every time i want to add a note to the status bar. Maybe it's just me ?

Also, please let me know if you need testers for extensive testing. Once I begin using an app, I like to test it and get to the bottom of things.
[Android Apps and Games] plbelanger:
Hi, yes there is a donate ad free version. There are no differences in functionality just the ads :) There is no custom option for exporting to a certain folder yet. Everything by default goes to the Notes directory. The "more" menu yeah I really have to clean that up a bit lol. I always post here in this thread so when I update the app or need to testers so just follow this thread :)

Ok, then. I'll be keeping an eye on this thread. Thanks again.

I have been using this app from the time i had my first Android Phone ...

but now with no option to have a common set of notes on my multiple devices is just forcing me to look at evernote as an option ... unless you can add a multi device support ...

A few questions ...

choosing 'backup notes to text files' is crashing the notes app ... where can i find the individual note entries as text files ?

Help appreciated ...
[Android Apps and Games] plbelanger:
I'm going to add a sync option, time always seems to be against me on this though presently and sync is pretty big undertaking + I have multiple projects I work on (apart from regular work). A lot of people actually email me thinking there are multiple people working on it but nope just me lol. The text files go to the Notes directory on SD. Do individual notes export OK?
[Android Apps and Games] aiamuzz:
That was quick :)

I was looking at a seamless sync option where I create/modify notes on any of my device and all my devices have updated and most current content ...

Can u tell me a tentative date on such a feature ... as I had setup my attorney's tab and phone with this app and now he is having a problem with content scattered on multiple devices ...

I can understand the time crunch ... when u r juggling work and private projects ... let me know if I'll hold off moving my attorney to evernote ...

Thanks & Cheers

[Android Apps and Games] plbelanger:
I wouldn't even be able to tell you a time frame right now unfortunately. Funny thing is I actually started working on a dropbox sync option a couple weeks ago but ran into some kind of issue where the keys weren't registering correctly to allow sync. Never got a chance to go back and look more into it yet. I mean you *could* use the backup&send option from the main menu to upload the db to dropbox,gmail, or google drive etc then import to another device. It's an extra step but it works fine. There is no need to import individual text files one by one. Would that work for you?
[Android Apps and Games] aiamuzz:
Nope the problem with that is ...

Tab has 10% new data ...

Phone has say 20% new data ...

Say when I backup and send file to phone from my tab ... I lose 20% of the phones new data when the tab backup rcvd is restored ... and lose 10% new data of my tab when done vice-versa ...

But if sync was difficult to achieve how about a custom restore option which gives a side by side individual notes comparison list on the individual note size and last modified date/time and let us choose which one to retain and which one to replace ... and all new notes auto checked for restore ... this way we can maximize on the 'backup and send' option and manually cross update different 'new data' across devices ... without losing any of it ...

Cheers.

[Android Apps and Games] plbelanger:
That option would probably be easier/quicker to implement for now. Let me see what I can do.
[Android Apps and Games] aiamuzz:
Great !!!

Look forward to it ...

Further ...

if you want to implement it via the dropbox and keep it seamless ... then how about storing all note entries as individual files in your proprietory format inside the notes folder ... and with a simple dropsync app sync the notes directory across devices ... this way the dropsync sync notes folder across devices and the notes app on launch reads the notes folder and populate its contents as individual entries ... this way it turns out to be seamless ... and easier than working on native sync feature ... what say ?

Cheers.

Well the format of the backup isn't my own proprietary format...it's just sql :) Definitely going to read more on dropbox sync docs when I get the chance.

[Android Apps and Games] 00madz:
Hi - if you're looking at Sync (please please) to google docs, for me it'd be really wonderful if you could maybe approach the guys at CompanionLink and discuss whether the google files (folder location / file format) you create could be then used by their product to allow a complete sync to/from Outlook using their Google sync product - I think currently they sync notes to dummy contact entries, but they might be willing to add an option to sync to google docs files instead - ideally the same location/format as you sync to!! I'm sure any time you spent on this would be worth it in terms of revenue if you made it a pro feature as there are many of us who like to synchronise outlook and google and now have to use something like CompanionLink since google dropped their sync tool - this would be the missing piece in terms of a great notes solution....

Shopping list force closes

Something that's annoying is when I was using the shopping list in the supermarket all of a sudden it crashes when trying to open it.

The file is hopelessly corrupted by something and I've lost my list. A further search on google and the reviews on play show that this is a common problem with the shopping list so there is definitely a bug which I hope you can fix in the near future as creating a new list seems like it will be a waste of time since it will happen again.

I am happy to send you the file that fcs if this is any help.

Hello,

Nice app: I love this app and I use every day.

But I would like to share with you some suggestions :

1) currently, it's possible to attach only ONE photo or,file or sketch to a note. But it happens frequently that I need to attach more than one photo, file, sketch. Is it possible, in the next update to give the possibility to attach more than one file, photo, and so on ?

2) is it possible to plan this feature : inserting a map into a note.

3) another feature : possibility to draw/sketch on a photo/picture in a note in order to comment it. For example, comment a map in order to show the path to a friend!

I know that your are very busy but I think that these features will complete perfectly your app: a real Swiss army knife!

Best regards

Import exported notes

Hi - perhaps I'm being a bit stupid but I cant figure out how to import notes exported from another phone. I have exported the notes into a file but I cant import it into the app on the new phone. Using HTC which doesn't have a 'menu' button so how do I get to the settings for the app?

I just noticed that you created Note+ Advanced Notepad. Since I'm on Android 4.4.4 I decide to try it. It's quite nice...well done, as I expected. I bought the ad-free version and I'm in the process of migrating my notes from Classic Notes + App Box to the new app. Once I've completed moving my notes to the new app I'll uninstall the this one.

The new app has some real nice features and the automatic backup to Dropbox is crucial! As I change over I'll keep track of features I use from this older one that are missing in the new one, and email them to you in hopes that you will implement as many of them as possible. I know that you're busy, but I hope that you're planning to fatten the new app up a bit in the weeks/months to come.

This older version is a fantastic app, I'm a big fan of it. I have used it almost daily for the last 3 years. The new one fits the new Android OS very well. I'm looking forward to using it just as much. Thanks again for your fantastic work.
[Android Apps and Games] plbelanger:
Thanks man, glad you like both apps! :) Yeah I wish I could add the dropbox support into classic notes but it's only for JB devices and up. I will be updating both apps with more stuff though :)
[Android Apps and Games] Droidlovinyogi:
Sounds great..I look forward it. I love updates!

It makes sense to add certain premium-type features to the new app. I know there's still a whole lot of people that are on older versions of the OS, but it's real smart of you to offer the new one that is current with the new OS style, design and ui. People on the older OS are destined to move up at some point and those of us who are already there really appreciate it!
