Notebooks for iPhone Answers

Will this app do what I need for my classes?

What I need:
-Automatically sync notes to OR FROM dropbox after editing it
-Insert an image from my camera roll into a note
-Sync my entire homework folder from dropbox and edit the text files already on it, while offline

-Hate having to manually sync with Awesome Note (too forgetful)
-Hate the lack of pictures and folders in Nebulous

Hello Corm,

I am glad to say that, YES, you can do all of the above with Notebooks!

- Synchronization with Dropbox can be automatic if you choose (just flick a switch in settings)
- Images can be inserted into notes (however, the notes are then converted to HTML, plain text cannot display inline images; you find details on our website under "Markdown"; and by the way: Notebooks 5, which is close to be released for the App Store, will even be better)
- you can sync the whole hierarchy or selected "books" with Dropbox

If you have further questions, please let us know!
Best,
Alfons

I just bought your app and tested it out for an hour and I love it!

Thanks for making this, it's brilliant.

I was having some sync issues but it was solved by removing the '?' symbol from the text file. I forgot about window's file naming quirks.

I'll post back with my impressions and suggestions after using it for a few weeks, but overall, I think this far trumps any other writing app.

I can't believe there were so few reviews on the app store!

I am glad to hear that you like Notebooks :-)

Yes, the App Store is all about "visibility", and there is virtually nothing you can do to influence that...

Best,
Alfons
