Note-taking apps

- Claire O’Mahony

Free thinking

UNLIMITED storage and the fact that it’s free are two reasons to consider Zoho Notebook. Images, checklists and audio can be added to your notes, which are organised into searchable notebooks and can be synched across devices. You can also attach Microsoft documents and PDFs.

Ever so good

ONE of the best known note-taking apps, Evernote supports myriad types of note taking including texts, images, web pages and scanned documents, which are searchable. It synchs across all devices and can function as a planner for your life as well as for work.

Keep it simple

SIMPLENOTE does exactly as the name promises, delivering a functional, minimal note-gathering tool. Nothing but typed text can be saved and you can’t set reminders or create checklists but you can publish your notes via a web link and it has unlimited storage. This is a pared back experience.

Bright ideas

FROM shopping lists to memos and to-do lists, ColourNote Notepad is easy to use and features two note-taking formats, a lined-paper text option and a checklist option. You can type as many characters as you need and, once saved, it can be edited, shared or set as a reminder. The notes are organised by colour and it supports online backup and synching.
