Product Description


ColorNote® features two basic note-taking formats: a lined-paper styled text option and a checklist option. You can add as many notes as you want to your master list, which appears on the app's home screen each time you open the program. This list can be viewed in traditional ascending order, in grid format, or by note color.

Taking a Note


The text option serves as a simple word processing program, allowing for as many characters as you're willing to type. Once saved, you can edit, share, set a reminder, or check off or delete the note through your device's menu button. When you check off a text note, the app places a slash through the title, which will be displayed on the main menu.

Making To-do List or Shopping List


In checklist mode, you can add as many items as you'd like and arrange their order using drag buttons activated in edit mode. After saving the list, you can check or uncheck each item with a quick tap, toggling a line slash. If all items are checked, the list's title will also be slashed.

FAQ




  1. Q: How do you put a sticky note widget on the home screen?

    A: Go to the home screen, hold down your finger on an empty space, and choose widget. ColorNote will then be displayed for you to stick on the page.


  2. Q: Why don't the widget, alarm, and notes reminder functions work?

    A: If the app is installed on the SD card, your widget, reminder, etc. will not work properly because Android doesn't support these features when installed on an SD card. Move the app back to the device for those features to work.


  3. Q: Where are backed up notes data on the SD card?

    A: Look in /data/colornote or /Android/data/com.socialnmobile.dictapps.notepad.color.note/files on the SD card.


  4. Q: I forgot my master password. How can I change it?

    A: Menu → Settings → Master Password → Menu Button → Clear Password. Note that you will lose your current locked notes when you clear the password!


  5. Q: How can I create a to-do list note?

    A: New → Select checklist note → Put items → Save. Tap an item to strikethrough.
