Needs iCloud Sync. Great little app. But without sync between devices I will prefer the apps that do. Delete all archived items should only delete it for the page you are on and not all pages. The daily alarms go off at anytime. Should be able to pick a time of day when they go off.

No Bloat! Simple!. This app is one of my favorites because of the simplicity. Just a quick note, phone number or whatever you need to remember at the spur of the moment. I’ve been using this app for some time and decided to purchase for extra pages because one page was getting very full and now I can have info organized on separate pages. Dictation makes ease of use fantastic. Delete, archive, restore/backup all work seamlessly. Thank You app developer!

Great for temp lists. Great app, simple and easy. But deleting it because there's no backup option. I don't want to lose my entire to do list if my phone crashes. An option for iCloud and Dropbox syncing/backup would bring this to 5 stars.

Widget?. Having a hard time figuring out how to make the widget work. Has anyone done this so far?

One of my favorite app. I love the simplicity of this app. It serves its purpose as a memo perfectly. I just wish it has a watchOS app.

Can you make it happen?. It’ll be better if it has a Mac version or online version because we need to sync our things from all of our devices.

Excellent idea. An excellent idea executed well. I'm currently experimenting with how it impacts my workflow but seems overall positive thus far. While all of us attracted to this app probably are looking to avoid feature bloat many of the comments have echoed my wishlist. A dark mode would be greatly appreciated and the ability to drag each entry around for reorganization would be quite helpful. Again, worth trying out given the fair pricing.

Mostly Positive. I like the simplicity of the Blink app and I don’t want to encourage it to grow into a complicated reminder/organizational app with pages of instructions on how to use it, but I really could use a help section with clearly written instructions. I’d also like alternatives to the tap controls because they are not always working reliably for me, although that could be due to user error. And I agree with others who suggested that it would be an improvement if new items were added to the bottom of the list instead of the top.

Fast and minimalist. Awesome speed, minimalist design, clever features. It just takes one tap to simultaneously switch the color and set a daily (or hourly) reminder for priority items. 2 feature suggestions: 1) Drag to rearrange manually (as of now the only option is to move an item to the top) and 2) Option for starting an item on a new line instead of wrapping the words between two lines (there is no way to tell if the first word on a given line is a new item or a continuation of the previous item other than context or tapping it - a visual indicator would be another way to fix this issue).

How do I get to the app Menu?. After I purchased and downloaded Pages, a menu came up that included the notes color settings and several other items. I cannot figure out how to open that menu again. I deleted the app thinking the menu might come up when the app was newly installed That did not work and now I cannot find a way to reinstall the pages function. The developer site seems nonexistent so I have no way to get the information about the menu, nor to get the pages functionality back.

Great app but widget can be better. I really love this app. It makes note-taking quite easy and quick. However, I’ve noticed the widget doesn’t behave properly; it cuts words in half instead of moving them into new lines.

Great App!. Love the minimalist look and function. Not your typical "to do" list. Extremely easy to rearrange and prioritize what you want to do. Simple to add or complete items. I would recommend this to anyone who finds themselves getting swamped by minor or important tasks yet uninterested in learning a new app. Negatives? Not really. The latest version has a type glitch in its widget but that's completely cosmetic.

Clean and sexy app. I love the layout of the list - going horizontal maximizes screen space. And the ability to add to the list by voice makes it even easier to use. One request - the app is very bright especially at night. The minimalist interface really lends itself to a dark mode. Having that as an option would perfect the app.

Keeps todos simple, unstressful. I love blink! Most todo applications have lists, and categories, and symbols, and all this noise that is itself stress inducing. Blink doesn’t. Blink isn’t perfect, I’d like a better way to move items around (not extensive reorganization, but something other than “send to top”). But Blink tries to keep you from overdoing it, so this reorg would have to prevent overuse. Also wish “smart gesture” could be activated by force touch. But I love it still.

Wish you could edit the order of your list!!. Otherwise this is a brilliant app! So easy to use and free flowing. Please make an update to be able to edit the list, maybe a hold and drag type of gesture. Thanks and Great work!

Can't get dictation to work. otherwise clean and useful. New things should get added to the bottom of the list though.

Very convenient. Nice app. Smooth. Convenient. Great to use throughout the day. Only wish the dark screen was used for notes instead of settings, looks very nice!

Good concept but not enough options. This app is quick and easy and nags me all day, which is my preferred method for reminders. However, in the spirit of keeping it simple there should be three choices for time between reminders: 1. Green color = weekly (reminds you from the time you make it green every week) 2. Yellow = daily (reminds you at the time you make it yellow every day) and 3. Red = hourly, as well as the standard to-do option with no reminder (black). This would keep it minimal but give some more options. There are many reminders that I don’t need to see every hour but do need to be reminded about. Also, I have not figured out what making the text blue does.

Very handy.. Has bailed me out when no paper or pencil available, quick and easy. Be nice if it transferred to all devices, maybe in the future.

Great & simple, but could use a few tweaks. It absolutely lives up to the spirit of keeping it simple, but there are a few things that could make it easier still. First, an extra color or two and an option on how they're applied would be nicer on the eye easier to navigate since the format is continuous text. Also, an option of putting new entries at the bottom rather than the top, especially since there's a gesture to move an entry to the top, and not vice versa. I paid for the Pages option which is handy, but moving the title so it shows at the top of the page or in the pull-down view would be ideal. This format is great for people who get bogged down by app features since there aren't many - it's mostly mostly gestures, takes a little getting used to, but this format is great.

Clean interface. Great interface. Finally an app that’s easily accessible. The black, red and blue text color is very useful. Would like more integration with the iPhone widget. Overall fantastic app which I’m sure will get better with future updates.

Simple and Sweet. Others could learn from this developer the art of keeping an app simple, focussed and a pleasure to use. Afterall, that was the whole idea of creating apps to begin with.

Neat idea but awkward interface. My biggest issue with this app is not the concept (which theoretically I love) it’s the user experience is awkward and pretty much the opposite of intuitive. I’ve had this for months and my fingers/muscle memory has still not learned the flow and shortcuts because, again, they’re not natural or intuitive. It’s about where you have to tap, how many times and why — it trips me up and irks me on the daily.

Simple, solid, eh. Needs dark mode and some redesign. It’s nice and gets the job done for most people’s organizational style. But it’s pretty boring.

Good. Needs a few things: visual indicator when you are dragging down to archive, drag to rearrange (or simply a way to move to top), and iPad support. Thanks

Love it. Prioritized feature requests: 1) more colors for items 2) share a page with other user(s) (example grocery lists) 3) open an item to store notes/hyperlinks on it 4) re-ordering of page sequence so I don’t have to move items individually when I decide I want different order

The best app ever. App is easy to use. Remember how you had something to remember and it just slipped your mind. Easy entry... easy to remember. Best app. Plus for all the savvy elderly you’ve got additional memory now. No more forgetting now.

Minimalist perfect. This is such a great app. After trying every list/reminder app I could get my hands on, I found Blink. I was semi-sold after I tried it the first time. I loved the list layout, compact and clean. The ease of adding an item. What I didn’t realize was the quick press to turn an item red would remind me every hour. Call mom was red by default and it began popping up on my phone hourly. I keep a running list of everything I need to do and go through it each night to pick the top five or so items I need to get done the next day. I used to write those out. Now I just hi light them in red and I’m done. I am alerted hourly and when I go back to the list the red items jump off the page so I know what to work on. Just the perfect app for my workflow. It’s now on my front page.

It’s Perfect. I love this little app. I think you have to try it to find out for yourself. At the cost of $1, there’s no risk. It just suits my personality.

Love it for what it is.. Quick and easy memos. Easy reminders. I use it as a daily “to-do” list. My one complaint: I will spell check worked when entering “blinks”. Fixing spelling errors caused by the fat fingers really slows me down. I would love the autocorrect feature to work.

Less is more. For a simple To Do List app, this app is very intriguing. The simplicity of it and the use of gesture recognition is crafty.

Almost Perfect - but still worth it!!!. This app works similar to how my mind works. And it’s easy to see everything at once and making things red enables an auto reminder which is so intuitive. It launches super quick compared to other list apps. How it could be better: Like other reviews, it needs to sync across devices (including OS X, with an app). It needs the ability to share the list with another user... this leads to my next point: I love how the app opens quick to my default list. But what if the feature for multiple lists was there and you could designate the default list. Switching lists would be done through the long press menu. But it is key to open to whatever the default list is upon launching the app, for speed and ease of use. I hope adding those features wouldn’t slow it down.

Almost perfect. I like Blink but it would be much more user friendly if you could manually drag to rearrange items. Also on my wish list would be the choice to make new items go to the bottom of the list instead of the top. I bought the pages upgrade and find it very helpful. To Do on one page, holiday list on another, page 3 is orders placed waiting on delivery, my packing list on page 4. Just a few minor upgrades would make this about the perfect list app. .

Super handy and well thought out!. Quick and easy access to all those little notes and ideas that slip away if we don’t capture them.

The Model of Simplicity. This is a great app. It is so quick and simple to use. It is ideal for quickly memorializing tasks and ideas.

Needs scheduling w/ multiple occurrences.... If it had scheduling w/ multiple occurrences, it would be worth the upgrade and appear to be a very well-thought out app. Sharing pages would be nice as well through a shared iCloud or Dropbox folder or something. There are some minor interface improvements that could be made as the mechanics of navigation can sometimes be confusing. I use the app several times per week though so it definitely earns the four stars. Love that it has a widget. Love the developers pomodoro app too! A donation button is needed so I can give some additional funding.

Simple and Powerful. My Favorite to-do list app. The design is so clever and simple. Adding items could not be easier. Items are easily color coded. Everything on one screen. I wish I could sync across 2 devices.

Simple and Perfect. Does just what it advertises. I've never run into a better transcription tool.

Just enough. I love the minimal nature. Organization schemes can be a barrier to just getting your thoughts out of your head, and Blink is putting nothing in the way. The word wrapping (opposing the typical one item per line) is unpretentious and feels more welcoming, less regimented. I’d love to see dark mode support in a future update.

Extremely handy!. This is a very simple and beautiful memo application. But it would even be mo bettah with dark mode support.

The app I turn to daily to stay focused. I’ve used many task and time management apps over the years but keep returning to this one. If you need an app to record tasks, reminders and ideas with the least amount of effort, this is the one to get. The voice dictation feature is especially handy for recording entries on the go. If you’re looking for a full-featured time management app to turbocharge your productivity, this isn’t the one for you. But it does what it was designed to do exceptionally well, which should meet the needs of most people looking for a simple task management and journaling system on their smartphones.

Where’s the support?. Just started with this and I like it, but it calls itself a widget and I can’t see how to add it to widgets, and I can’t find instructions and when I click on the support link it takes me to a gambling website that’s in another language.

Perfect for brain dumps!. Quick and easy to get stuff out of your head. The voice dictation is super easy to use and great for dumping whatever is in your head. Some minor glitches after using voice dictation - app freezes but I’m sure it’ll be fixed. I’ll just add one feature. Ability to choose the “snooze” time or a more flexible reminder time option.

Useful. wonder why more than 1/3 of bottom of screen is dark gray after I upgraded to paid version

Simple but effective. I love when an app just works, and this one definitely works. I've used many task and to do apps over the years, and I love the simplicity of this one. At first, I thought the simplicity would be a problem, but the simplicity actually helps me to get things done rather than spending time playing with tags and flags and other extra features. Hope it stays simple but effective!

User interface. Make the three dots a share icon

Something wrong with the Chinese display.. Hi, I like the application very much. When I use the Component ,there is something wrong with the Chinese display. Please fix it !

Just what I need. I'm no longer doing myself into thinking that fancy productivity apps are what I need to find my "best self". This app has actually helped remind me what I need to do. Thank you thank you thank you!

Fast and Easy. Nice interface, great balance between features and ease of use. Perfect for quick notes, errands, lists, etc. Use it every day.

Pretty great, room for improvement. My only real beef is with its lack of autocorrect. Otherwise, most of the opaque features are explained within the app’s notes itself.

One way to make it even quicker. Would be perfect if we can enter multiple items at once, instead of having to watch the keyboard to go down and come up again and again when you want to create a list of many items all at once

Good but. Can you add another colour for weekly reminder? Green perhaps? Fantastic app though Simple and straight forward Very elegant

Not user friendly. Hi I like the idea of your app & the dictation. However it’s frustrating to use because the page is badly designed & formatted. Even the top date can’t be seen. You really need to re- design the page & accessories so that we can easily select various icons that will then open selected icon functions allowing users to select Color, format, font size, page number, style vertical or horizontal or point for , list or notes. These are only a few suggestions. It has potential to be a useful tool if you consider making changes.

Good, but.... It would be great to sync across device. Also, Apple Watch support would also make it more usable.

So~~ goood. Simple and straightforward input like design as well

Simple; elegant.. I love that I can see all tasks clearly on one page. It’s a simple app and that’s perfect for mind-dumping. However : another colour, say green, would be great, and most importantly, auto-correct and predictive text should work in-app - it’s supposed to be quick and responsive, which means it should allow for typing errors and not force users to carefully spell everything out!

Could be a memory app too !. Currently only reminder function is every hour and everyday If we have more colours and can choose every 8 hours, every 3rd day, every 7 days etc. It can easily become a memory app/ language learning app.

So much potential!. I love the minimalistic approach, simple works great.....But it will freeze up far too often, that’s a major flaw for a simple productivity app, I would rate it 5stars if it wouldn’t crash.

Best list app. Blink is by far the best list app I have ever tried - and I've tried many. Blink is clean, fast, beautiful, and so easy to use that it actually helps me get things done. Add and check off tasks with a simple double-click. Each morning, I identify the one to three tasks that I want accomplish and set the to 'red' for hourly reminders. I set upcoming tasks to 'blue' so that I know what's coming up. Highly recommended.

How to open setting?. Love the app but I only managed to open settings once, accidentally. There I could unlock pages and change notifications for different colors. But I cant go back there again. How do I go back to the app setting? 5 star for response from developers:)

Perfect. This app works exactly how my mind works. It’s my favourite way to organize my thoughts and list of things to-do.

One Fatal Flaw. This is a great Minimalists To-Do list app, but If I could add one thing, it would be to - completely hide the archive section when not in use - and to order things like a list Overall, it’s a great app and you should definitely get it

Great but could be the greatest. Become the greatest by adding iCloud sync!

Recently become unstable. Good app, but it’s become unstable in the last month, possibly with iOS 15. It forgets that I’ve purchased the pages feature, which I need to restore daily. Thankfully it hasn’t lost the contents of those pages yet. While we’re fixing things, can we have “Search”? When my list gets too big, I’ll start to add duplicates because I miss that something is already there.

Freezes within 2 min. won’t work. App Freezes, requiring reinstall every 2 minutes

Baffling, somewhat arrogant experience. No instructions, not intuitive at all, no clear way to figure out how to do things. In the words of Peter Griffin, this app insists upon itself. Shame.

Lacks Some Basic Functionality. Um yeah. Pretty good app. Pretty lean, rapidly responsive. Doesn’t sync automatically across devices - which is a rather large drawback. And it doesn’t have predictive text! What note taking app doesn’t have that?! This one I guess. Also needs a better instruction set. The ‘mystery’ of fumbling around trying to figure out how it works is overrated. Looking forward to future developments.

PLEASE build a simply sync and to make GREATEST APP ever. The elegance of the Blink Home Screen widget makes me happy every single time i look at it. PLEASE build a simply sync so that i can keep it up to date across platform! Alternatively, please build Shortcut hooks so I can do a simple automation on my own! PLEASE this is so good, give us the tools we need to make it GREAT. Will pay!

Good app, needs instruction & sync. This is exactly how I do things on paper, jotting things down but it would be nice to know how the notifications and colors work and to sync across devices

Settings not available. This app is setting reminders that I haven’t asked for and I have no control over what it is doing. Looks like a great app but it must have settings imbedded in this somewhere?

Very good but a few problems. So I love the concept of just quickly jotting something down to remind you later and I like the notifications so far, but the fact that any tasks you write down in the app, that are separated by a line (like you have a long task that doesn’t fit on one line of text) then in the widget it places a line in the middle of the task name as if the second half of your sentence was another task.

Best app!. Please add iCloud sync to other devices yet! Otherwise it's perfect

Adsterra is the most preferred ad network for those looking for an alternative to AdSense. Adsterra is the ideal choice for new sites with low daily traffic. In order to advertise on the site in Adsterra, like other ad networks, a certain traffic limit, domain age, etc. is required. There are no strict rules. Sign up!

The simplest memo+todo app ever. Blink is one of the most beautiful mini memo+todo app. UI&UX are cute and intuitive. There are no useless functions or complicate buttons. If you are tired using complicated or super functionalized memo/todo apps, definitely you should use this app.

Perfect for people allergic to numbered task lists. Only one niggle; I would like to have autocorrect.

Perfectly balanced. A great combination of features and simplicity. My favorite task manager!

Simple, fast, has widget!. The widget feature is what sold me. Much cleaner and more straightforward than the built in reminder app.

큰기대안했는데 엄청 좋아요. 앱 사용성이 좋네요 애플스러운 앱이에요 원래 기본메모앱에서 하나를 비슷한 용도로 썼는데, 훨씬 좋아요 알람도 되고. 메모간 이동이 조금아쉽긴한데 크게 중요하지 않아요. 2x2 2x4 위젯이 아닌 1x4 위젯이 있으면 좋겠지만 그건 아마 애플에서 그렇게 지원하는거 같네여…

Not an iPad app. No landscape mode - portrait only

So simple, so good. This is why apps should be. Just a good idea that’s not overthought. HOWEVER, I need iCloud sync. Please!

widget is not working.. I only see back box.

Apple Watch app please :). Love this app. So simple, and straight to the point! I would love it more if there was an Apple Watch app as well, though.

Love it!. Simple and useful

Perfect minimalist reminder app. The app works smoothly with no hick ups at all. It's easy to use and as minimal as an app can get. The minimalism goes a long way.

기능 요청. 아이템 더블클릭으로 편집하는 기능 추가해주세요

Update malfunction. The app is very lean and simple and works fine. Recent update has frozen the startup.

blink. click to open everything went blank had to re-install-??!!

Minimalist at its best!. I love this app!

Clear, Concise and Clean.. I love this app for To Do lists, Memos and reminders. I agree with the remarks of the other reviews.

Crashes on iPod ios12. Crashes on my new iPod Works fine, on my iPad, but crashes on my iPod.Wes, it will post a memo, but crashes and can’t do anything else with it...I have a new iPod a ios12 installed.

How. How can I change settings for reminders?

wiget. need wiget

Minimal & functional. Right off the bat I knew this would make its way to my main homescreen. Some of my favorite apps are this that are infinitely useful, but keep it simple. Something I'd like to see is for the input window/keyboard to open as soon as the app launches. Or have the option to turn that on and off.

Unique, excellent approach. Really delightful approach to a todo list. Everything I need!

위젯에서 바로 확인되어 편합니다!!. 간편한 메모와 편리한 위젯! 정말 좋습니다~~추천!!

Wouldn’t buy.. Doesn’t work for me. There are better apps.

위젯 지원 예정 문의. ios14용 위젯 지원 및 워치 지원 예정은 없나요?

Blink is perfect!. I’m not exaggerating when I say I would be lost without this app. I use it for everything and I recommend it highly and constantly! Edit: I had Pages on my old phone and when I got a new one and went to upgrade I can’t believe it’s all free! Do you have an android version so I can recommend it to literally everyone? This is my favorite app ever.

There’s no widget. Widget doesn’t exist

Simple, easy to learn but it won’t work in landscape!. I missed that it’s only for iPhone. I deleted it after 20 minutes. How do I get a refund?

Sleek minimalist memo!. Beautiful interface! Great for a quick note or simple list. Perfect combination of functions without overdoing it - multiple pages, highlight colors & archive. Thanks to the developer!

建议. 对于健忘的人，每小时提醒备忘真的太棒了，建议再加一个晚10点到早8点不提醒开关，即夜间不提醒，比如下午7点记录第二天要做某事，深夜不停提醒就不合适了

Simple to use. It's a simple app for lists, nothing complicated about. It's just what I'm looking for with the exception it won't sync between devices. Fix that, it gets 5 stars.

iap bought. 没看到内购项目

Make it dark. Please add dark mode

Good concept. Needs a polish. The mic notes gesture and UI is nice. The app is responsive but it is not very easy to add and remove new items or separate lists

Dictation bug and no support. There's a bug in dictation--it won't work if you use a keyboard other than iOS. And the support email they give bounces. Oh, well. Looked like a cool idea.

Useful. I like the concept of this app. Simple simple simple. This is a to-do list I actually use. Last update had bug, latest update fixed it, good job.

이 따위 허접한 앱을 돈 받고 팔면 양심 없는 겁니다. 이 앱은 왜 순서를 내 맘대로 못하게 하나요? 이걸 왜 안해주는 건가요? 실력 없으면 앱 내려요 돈 받고 팔았으면 기본은 해야죠? 아주 기본적인 기기간 동기화 조차도 안해주고 있잖아요

최고. 넘나 직관적이고 좋네요
