SideNotes is used by thousands of people every day. We've received hundreds of emails where SideNotes users tell how useful the app is. Application has great reviews on AppStore®. Here are some reviews from our users:
This is my new favorite way to quickly write down my daily tasks as they come to mind. Also, I haven’t seen a quicker way to grab notes or text from another place like SideNotes, and believe me, it is quicker than anything else - like an inbox for the thoughts.
I love that I always have my notes accessible and in front of me no matter what I'm doing, always, while at the same time they never take up any extra space on my screen or clutter things up. (...) Check out the video
I basically use it as a collection of sticky notes on steroids but it actually has a ton of features. I use it as a quick to-do list to note-down notes when I'm doing video calls or streams or podcasts but the most useful feature for me is to quickly drop snippets of text I find on the web when I'm doing research and you can even drop in images for later use.
