Notepad is a very useful and simple app. Creating a new note is very simple with the app shortcut and can be easily shared to other apps. In a way this does exactly what it should and get out of the way. In a way it's a text area with a share button. It's amazing already, but could be improved with two small changes. 1. Delete note after successful share, and 2. Add another button that shares the first line as title and the rest as the body. Thanks for a great app!

Updated review.The developer must read! It's a fast lightweight and functional notepad and I use it more than the other word processing and editing apps thanks to its lightweight and easy interface.It stands out with the fact that it doesn't require any permissions & it's totally ad-free. It doesn't seem to be reading our notes either. Now it's even better with the search feature. Please add "favorites" and "create a folder" features and it will be the best notepad ever made for android platform

Nice simple app. However it would be nice to know that your notes are not saved outside of the app. I just upgrade to new device. Migrated data from old device, but all of my notes were not transfered because I didn't export them first. I no longer have access to old device so hundreds of notes gone.
