- (2025-07-03) İbrahim Niftiyev: This is a great extension that helps me a lot. Great work! Thanks for it!
- (2025-06-30) atlasium agency: WE Love using this product, it saves our team lot of time and helps them catch and save floating Ideas frictionless. very recommended. but if there was a markdown realtime formatting it would be so much better.
- (2025-06-20) Hello: Its good I haven't gotten any issues but plzzz make it so that I can open it with any key on keyboard like alt+v etc. thxxxxxx
- (2025-06-03) Criterion Home Inspections: All my notes suddenly disappeared! Before that, I could only access my old notes unless i make a new one every time. Very annoying!!!
- (2025-05-27) Walter Velaides: All my notes suddenly disappeared!
- (2025-05-23) mochi: i can't access my old notes unless i make a new one every time. very annoying!!!
- (2025-05-15) Amina Kudrati-Plummer: My notes have all been lost suddenly. Seeing as there are several other users who just lost their notes today (previously a much less frequent occurrence), it seems to be an issue on their end. Many of the buttons (settings, info, etc.) are also not working at all, i.e., nothing happens when they are clicked on, making it impossible to restore backups. I hope it gets sorted, as I did quite like this extension and have been using it for a while. EDIT: revised my review as this issue has been resolved and my notes have been restored. I have changed my rating from 1/5 to 4/5
- (2025-05-12) Maximilian Bitter: issue was fixed, thank you
- (2025-05-09) Bender B. R: Apparently you need to create a new note to view old notes. Must be a bug. Just writing again for visibility. Thank you Rox Kahulugan for figuring it out.
- (2025-05-08) ashley: BLESSED BE THE DAY MY NOTES ARE RESTORED
- (2025-05-08) Shae Peralta: WHERE ARE ALL MY NOTES??????????
- (2025-05-08) Mohg: Resize function discovered. Though it is at the bottom right. Original comment:"Why is everything suddenly so small?"
- (2025-05-07) Artur Adam Kmita: With the new update, all notes have been lost—two years of important information and records seemingly vanished into the abyss.
- (2025-05-07) Rox Kahulugan: I've been using this extension for a year now and love it, but I think there's a bug today. My notes don’t show up unless I create a new one and then to view them again, I have to keep creating more new notes. Hope this gets fixed soon!
- (2025-05-07) Chrissel Figueroa: LOST MY NOTES, VERY MADDDD. DELETING.
- (2025-05-07) Juliel Camacho: A very handy app BUT LOST all of my notes UPDATE: If you want to fix the lost note bug, just click the PLUS icon or ADD a new note and your notes will be restored
- (2025-05-07) Giles Walker: This has been a very handy tool, but all of a sudden, all my notes have disappeared! Why? I have absolutely no idea. Can I get them back? I have absolutely no idea. Have I lost trust in the tool? At the moment, sadly yes. Very frustrating.
- (2025-05-07) Alexander Pardon: All my notes has dissapeared! So i am afraid to use this anymore..
- (2025-05-07) nix moon: ok but something happened and now every time i open the extension it opens to a really small window of a blank note showing none of my other recent notes on the side panel, but then i press add new note and they all come back? help what is going on its really annoying me
- (2025-05-07) Shadman Sakib3: Upload backup stopped working a few days ago and I lost all my notes. Can't seem to get them back from my backup json file.
- (2025-03-27) Obaid Ali: usefll plugin, But would be greate if it has a feature to save notes. like signup.
- (2025-03-20) Eddie O'Donnell: very useful. I wish you could pin it to your screen and do other things with it open tho.
- (2025-03-18) Victoria: Good but WE NEED A POP-UP THAT SAYS 'ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO DELETE' BECAUSE I ACCIDENTALLY CLICKED THE DELETE BUTTON ON MY NOTES. AND NOW I DONT KNOW WHAT MY NOTES ARE FOR MY EXAM
- (2025-02-24) AA_27: Speech to text is not working. And seems like they're not going to fix it.
- (2025-01-28) Vincent Lee: my only gripe is the lack of contrast. the text is not fully black. i am visually impaired and struggle to see gray/lighter-color text, regardless of the background color. faded text is troubling for someone like me. other than that, great little extension, but will be sticking to chrome's Notepad extension.
- (2025-01-06) Ibrahim Elnour: very Simple and efficient 💯
- (2024-12-31) Egor Ukoloff: Am not sure what is that speech to text doing. Evety time I click on it it pops up 'Recording stopped" and not doing anything else...
- (2024-12-12) Daniel L: The animated pencil is incredibly annoying and serves no purpose, taking up a huge portion of the screen. There is no way to turn it off. Useless feature that distracts, makes the browser look like a child's cartoon, and adds no functionality. Uninstalled.
- (2024-12-11) Itz An Opinion: simple and easy to use, but would love to see the option of being able to move the note window vs it being 'stuck' to the upper right corner of my screen! ;( Would also like to see the option to change font as well as font size. Still haven't found a legitimate replacement for Quick-Notes unfortunately! That was the 'Chef's Kiss' when it came to note app for Chrome! :)
- (2024-12-01) Claire Olson: amazing but wish i could copy and paste images!!
- (2024-11-29) ARSA GAMING: One of the best extension I have used till now ...
- (2024-11-26) Steve Lynch: A very nice extension to copy and edit text content. It has so many other mini features.
- (2024-11-22) Ray Castillo: This note app has just become my best friend as I use Chrome as one of my main tools of work. I can quickly access notes that I use constantly, copy and paste and BOOM done with that. Only one thing regarding the UI is that it would be great to be able to hide the buttons that are always showing in the main interface screen as they are cluttering the enviroment.
- (2024-11-12) Babu Kazi: I recently started using the chrome note and it has quickly become an indispensable tool in my daily workflow. The ease of saving important notes and information has transformed.
- (2024-11-05) Mahmoud Tenzi: bnice
- (2024-11-03) SideSky: This extension is AMAZING! However isn't it possible to add more text formatting options? (bold / weight, color, underline, strikethrough etc...) Because right now the text is a little hard to read (it has the grey color)
- (2024-10-31) CM MHG Residência: SHOW
- (2024-10-29) David Jones: Hey, why not?
- (2024-10-27) Billie Jo Tulachanh (TheCrazyCraftyChickJoJo): This is so convenient, its so easy for me to stay on top of all my online tasks and simple to add and remove items as I go throughout the day. Thank you for this extension.
- (2024-10-26) JustJordo: The best note taker I've found so far!
- (2024-10-14) Kenroy Archer: Simple but effective! And it has some wonderful features too.
- (2024-10-09) Vy Vy: great
- (2024-10-07) Landon Hopkins: Good for what its supposed to do :) landonhopkins.com
- (2024-10-04) • Aluminum The Lee-Anne •: It's a good extension but it'd be better if there's a function to set bold font and increase size of a highlighted text rather than the entire text/paragraph. In that way, it'd be easier to note and organize things down making it much more convenient.
- (2024-09-22) gbzorro: This has many functions that makes it look very good. But there are three very BIG flaws. (1) FLOAT. Allow the pop-up window to be moved/float. Right now, it just opens up center screen and blocks whatever webpage you might be wanting to refer to behind it. (2) DISAPPEARS. Prevent it from disappearing every time you click on something else on the screen. This prevents one from doing "drag 'n' drop", PLUS even prevents the ALT-Tab window switch function from working. (3) DATA LOSS. I haven't experienced this personally, but I haven't used the app hardly at all. But I have read many reviews discussing this. And losing all your work unexpectedly, time and again, is a monstrous-size fail. An app that does this should really be rated zero stars. ( i still gave it two stars though because I haven't experienced this problem.) So for now, I'm sticking with a chrome extension note taking app called "Make Notes". It doesn't have any of these three terrible flaws.
- (2024-09-14) P R: So far, this is just what I wanted: simple, easy to use, capable of as much editing as is wanted without imposing choices.
- (2024-08-29) Younjo you: good
- (2024-08-27) widya batin: text doesn't disappear when clicking a new tab but always... don't forget to save ! XD
- (2024-08-23) gayle coakley: Wish it woud also allow for simple click and save an image too, I'd like to be able to save both text and an associated image, fast and easy
