Some feedback about the website; the nicescroll.js plugin reduces usability in my opinion. It changes the expected behaviour of my browser, and it took me a couple of tries to get the page to stop where I wanted it to.
Thanks for the feedback. Just disabled it.
I think you need a video of your app, highlighting its unique features on your website.

Like any app category, there are numerous alternatives, so you've got to really demonstrate what makes your app different and compelling.

Thanks. We are making the demo video and will update the website ASAP.
We just uploaded a demo video on the website
Great integration with other services reminiscent of a slightly similar app 'Drafts'. Automatically creating a list reminds me of org-mode. I wonder if I can automatically sync org files and swipe off todo's.
I totally don't familiar with org-mode. But speaking of Drafts, yes, we really like the idea how Drafts can quickly start to type texts. But we want a more intuitive interface and other features like automatically creating notes with texts copied from other apps, one button sharing, etc.

We want to make collecting and managing texts on the iOS devices easier and smarter. For example, you can copy an URL from the other apps and get a new note with webpage title + URL. That would be useful if you are gathering some information.

Thanks for your feedback. We'll make it better.

with org-mode (an emacs mode for organizing lists) you can make lists with bullets: * TODO sublevel 1 * sublevel 2 and prioritize them with [A], [B] etc, tag them with :tag1:, :tag2: etc, and time, schedule etc them with :CLOCK:, :SCHEDULE: etc.

I am using Drafts to edit create org files in dropbox. Your swipe feature is handy in this regard so I can more easily integrate org-mode with my mobile workflow. There is an mobile-org app but it's a bit dated, and apps like Clear with similar swiping of tasks do not export with other services or files.

One thing I miss from most note apps is the ability to tag notes with just `#tag` wherever in a note. Clicking it should bring me to the tag view.
I'm guessing you aren't a native English speaker? There are some nasty copy mistakes in there such as your heading "More Carefully Design"... try and get someone to proofread your copy.
Thanks. And yes, we are Taiwanese. We'll be more careful.
The category title "More Carefully Design" doesn't make sense grammatically.
A simple preview video just added to the website. It demonstrates how to collect texts from other apps.
NoteBox or Draft,Which one do you like?
Though there's something weird, it's definitely a good work.
Thank you. Can you be specific about the weird parts?
what distinguish notebox from other note app, says Simplenote?
First, it collect texts much faster. You get a blank note screen when launch the app (like Drafts), plus create notes when you copy texts from other apps (while it is in the background).
Second, it treat notes somewhat like todos. We think every note has its purpose. They are meant to be keep for reference, do something, share, archive, or discard the idea(delete), etc. We made sharing and doing other actions easily.

For example, if you are a Evernote user, you can send multiple notes to Evetnote at once.
