QuickAdvice: Lumen Note Provides A Scratchpad For Your iPhone and iPad
Lumen Note HD - Instant Notes Anywhere ($1.99) by Lumen Spark LLC is a simple little note app for your iPhone and iPad.
Have you ever wanted to have a scratchpad on your iPhone or iPad without having to start a new note every time? Eventually you forget about those quick little notes and then they clutter up with your other more important notes. How about having one note that serves as a scratchpad for you when you need it? There's an app for that, and it's Lumen Note HD.
Lumen Note HD is a simple app that allows you to jot down quick notes without the need for creating new notes every time. The first thing you need to do is to create an account with Lumen Note that will provide cloud syncing with the web app and multiple devices.
Once the account is set up, you get taken to the note that gives you a brief introduction to the app. From that point, you can replace the text with anything you want. Lumen Note HD also provides a fast and easy way to select text - simply swipe your finger across a line of text and it will be selected. This method is quicker than the default iOS way of tapping and holding text to select.
Whenever you make a change to the text in the Lumen Note, there are Undo/Redo buttons that will appear at the top so you can quickly and easily revert back to the previous state.
At the top is also a status that informs you of when you are offline or when everything is up-to-date. If you're offline, any changes will be synced the next time your device has a data connection.
On the iPad, Lumen Note HD appears like beautiful sheets of paper, which gives it an authentic 'scratchpad' feeling. With the web version, it's a simple plain white text field where you can just start typing. Anything that you make a note out of in the web version or any iOS device will automatically be synced to all of your iDevices.
For those that are looking for a full-featured notes app, this is not for you. But those that want a simple scratchpad may want to consider picking up Lumen Notes HD. It's a simple and no-fuss way to quickly jot something down.
