Great app but has so many issues working with the keyboard on my Samsung phone. It regularly won't type and other times the keyboard gets frozen up on the screen even after leaving the app. I have to keep exiting the app and coming back into it to make it work. Very frustrating.

The app is good for writing notes accessible across different devices, but there was a problem with duplicates for a long time, meaning duplicates due to not syncing/saving properly across devices I guess. Don't know how far they've got to resolving this but it has been the biggest problem and I have used it for years. Lately though I haven't noticed it.

Why is there no option to delete notebook? Looking online the advice suggests to delete in onedrive, which worked to some degree, but the notbook still shows in the android app. Further suggestions are to remove from "recent" in the desktop app which should sort it. I don't have a compatible PC to run the desktop app though. This "solution" would seem to need me to buy a windows compatible machine and license. This is basic functionality which should be included.
