Use Your Handwriting App Reviews

Easy to use. Quicker than thumb typing

I used to love this app but lately notes that I put onto my lists have been dropping off. The list shows a previous list minus the items that I put on. This is very aggravating because I use this app a lot and even bought the upgrade.

I use this app to keep a list of Christmas shopping items and grocery needs. Its been very helpful and I like the ease of use.

A great idea, truly, truly extraordinary execution. But somehow I only found it marginally useful. Maybe I do not have enough quiet time during which I do not have access to a full keyboard? I also found myself scribble on any scratch paper I see around - instead of launching this app. This is not just due to habit, but unlocking the phone, then open a folder on the second page, then launch this app? That takes too long (than searching for that scratch paper. (Anyone putting this on home page?) Meeting room might be a good place to use it, though the glowing colours would make it a formidable proposition. Maybe, not having a meaningful way to transfer/transcript notes makes it no more attractive than scratch paper?

I like the fact that it takes your larger written words and shrinks it down to size in the final note rather than me trying to write small in the first place.

I was talked into trying this app. I cant live without it now! Very versatile and helpful.

I have used this app since 2009. Very reliable and useful. Maybe the UI is a bit dated but its still pretty. I use it as my daily to do list, for brainstorming and to outline presentations and writing. UPDATE 8.0 Love the calendar! Update 10.0 Best update ever! Automatic and instant syncing.

Love the app and have used it for a couple years. Easy to use and helps me stay organized, Im a list maker and now I dont have to type. Last update took away some color options and eraser features, so drawing is more difficult. Bummer!!!!!!

I keep my lists here and never lose them!

Update Needs an Update! After using and loving this app (and UYH Gold) for ~5 yr, Im sad about the latest "update." While the reorder is easier, the edit is now not as accessible, and I hate the cutout of music in background! Very slow too; cant see help on iPhone when I need it!! Disappointed & switching back!

I used to love this app but its full of noisy ads now. I do get that ads pay for the app in the free version, but its weird and awkward to have noise coming from an otherwise silent app. Other than the noise its mostly bug-free for me and easier than typing. I havent really used the new iOS notes but if they prove better Ill drop this app.

I maintain many lists on this app - to do, shopping list, books to read, debit card purchase amount (I can lose a receipt in 5 minutes ), and quick notes. I love it and it only gets better

I use it to do everything from scribbling notes to jotting down awesome ideas on the train. This app is very well done.

Much too slow since the latest update. We need to be able to turn off the sync function.

I use this app daily (every few hours recently) and love that I can write with my own handwriting. However, there are increasingly more and more ads and now I have to escape an ad every time I try to write something and the ad interrupts my note almost without exception.

Couldnt ask for more. It does exactly what it says. Clear, easy to follow instructions make what seemed complicated at first glance very simple. I love the way the tutorial actually takes you through step by step and can be utilized for reminder lessons the same way. The colors and options bring a little fun to taking notes for my number-crunching desk job. The formatting makes it very easy to organize to the tiniest detail or just jot a quick note. And kudos to the app developer for online access and such easy sharing options. The only thing I would add is the option to include sub lists/tasks all at once when forwarding. I ran into a few glitches setting up my online account after downloading the app to my iPhone first. The support team was fantastic and so efficient. (I actually emailed on a Saturday expecting a response on Monday. I got one on Sunday!) Nice to see a developer devoted to a quality product and great customer service. Loving it so far. Very impressed.

This is a handy app for jotting down lists and notes. I use it all the time.

There are so many ads it makes the app worthless... not to mention very annoying! You can barely write a word or two before the next one pops up. On some apps (such as radar) the ads are on the bottom and don’t interfere with the actual working of the app. This one forces you to either accept or reject the ad each time before it will function. Needless to say I deleted it

I love the features. It keeps me organized in my day to day schedule. I can write quick notes or a paragraph.

Long story short. Ive used this app for many years. First for free then paid to get rid of the ads. After awhile the ads came back. I now subscribed for .99/month. Ads never went away and after many attempts to rectify it without response I am forced to cancel my subscription. Too bad because I really like this app.
