"...a true notepad experience that may help you make a clean break from the pencil-and-paper era." -New York Times.

Users describe Mental Note as "the only notepad app... thats actually better than, and as simple as, a pen and paper." Its "the future of note taking", and "a big sketchpad... [to] free associate and put stuff down in any format".

Turn your iPhone into a digital notepad. Combine photographs, voice recordings, drawings and text - all on the same page, in any order you choose.

An idea... a flash - a moment of genius. When a thought hits, and you have to remember it, why limit how you record it? The more context and sensory details you can capture, the clearer the idea can be put down. Use photographs, audio, sketching and text together on the same page... a digital page that can be shared with anyone.

Mental Note allows you to capture ideas as they happen: use photographs, dictate, add text, sketch on anything. Ideas clarified. Creativity captured.


FEATURES

- Draw with your finger using multiple colours and widths on top of photographs, text, or anywhere else on the page. Zoom in to sketch fine details.

Pros and cons of Mental Note Lite ๛ app for iPhone and iPad

Mental Note Lite ๛ app good for

Suggestions: Titles for audio tracks inside a note to find them quickly and make them searchable. A denser design of the audio track. It takes a lot of screenspaces, but all it is is just a line. Otherwise perfect!
Its very easy to note everything (record, picture, written, drawing) as its all on the same page and you see the pics where your inserted it instead of an attachement... Its so useful to be able to write on the picture to illustrate what you mean in your notes. As you can erase only the section you want in your note, its easy to review or modify any past ideas... The only thing missing to make a perfect 5 stars app for me would be to be able to locate on a map where my notes have been taken. Excellent start and I will definitly buy the full version.
Love the design of the app. We can record voice or take pictures from within the app. It would be cool to be able to zoom pictures. I often take pics of documents but I cannot read them if I do not zoom. That would be a good upgrade. Bought the full version anyway :-)
It is a great start. I agree with the two reviews above: would be nice if the picture if there is a setting to allow full size picture and locate location on map.
Its a really good app. Please add support for zooming in on pictures, and preset graphics such as grids, check marks etc. For math since that u what I want to use it for. Thank you
Love it, it has pic, password, map, drop box , email....everything! Just perfect

Some bad moments

Can only write 2 notes on the free version, after that you have to upgrade to the $2.99 version of the app.
Cmon guys - one or the other on a "Lite" version of an app. Youre supposed to be giving potential buyers confidence in your company and product. Instead you just look cheap, and Id rather find a comparable product that I know is steered by developers and not by accountants.
Limits you to 2 notes. Just 2 pages, then you have to delete whatever precious note you made if you want to write a new one. All photos will have irritating watermarks. Tells you to upgrade to the paid app. This app simply puts together other apps you already have on your iPhone so why bother? Stick to the apps that came free with your iPhone unless this limitation is removed.
Everything on my wish list from by first review has been added, plus more! Lots of customization options. Nice job! --- Original Review --- I love being able to type or use handwriting, even both in the same note!! Dont like that it always as for my location on start up. You dont need that info. Would like to be able to chang fonts and background color of app. Overall nice job!!!
Give it a try! Not a bad app. I know Ill def use it, but $3 too hefty for note app. Highlight tool is a first Ive seen! Will buy when/if price goes down.
I wish there was password protection and choices for different fonts and sizes. Other than that, its quite good!
