Too simple

Not sure why I expected more. Just for very simple notes that can be grouped. Cannot use this for building on ideas and creating detailed or complex plans. If you are a dreamer who never goes beyond the "wouldnt it be great if.." stage, this could be all you need. But the list of features is minuscule for the rather high price. Fooled me, but dont let it fool you.

Drafts integration?

Great update to a great app. What Id really like, though, is the ability to send notes from Drafts to Idea Store.

Useful

Its really useful now that you can post ideas to Twitter.

Idea Store Is The Best

One of the few apps that Ive consistently used over the years since I first downloaded it. The most recent update is Awesome. Its so satisfying to see an app youve been using for so long finally come into the best that it can be — the ideal potential form you saw in it at the earliest stages. Idea Store finally reached fruition, per the best potential I saw in it. And its very nice to see happen. Funny enough, its still just as simple as always. As it should be. I use it to collect scattered thoughts, or jot down stuff that pops into my head. Basically, if you have a snippet of text that you may or may not want later — stick it in Idea Store. Its not an intensive organizer. Its not for the finished, final product. Its for thoughts in the raw; jot down your idea, and go. Maybe youll need it later. Maybe youll forget about it for years. Idea Store is for the scraps of thoughts youd quickly jot down on a napkin, or post it. Just, more organized.

Good just needs a little more

Would be great if the developer indicated something about their roadmap. Is there any plan to add features? If so what? I really like the simplicity of the app, clean interface and the ability to organize ideas. It would be great if there were some improvements to how text is captured. This could come in the form of TextExpander support, additional keys to the keyboard, or a url scheme that could be used by capture apps like Drafts. Either markdown support or a custom display format like DayOne would be helpful to structure ideas and information. Additional export options that make cloud syncing more automatic and convenient would also be welcome. It would be nice to know that ideas stored could be accessed years down the road, perhaps after the developer has decided to move on.

Decent place to put your ideas, but a little limited.

Idea store is a great, simple and to the point app to put you ideas, however it only allows text and thus is a bit limited. It would be nice to see in future updates the ability to actually draw out ideas and insert pictures to complement and build on ideas rather than the app only acting as sort of starting point for your ideas. At this point it will only copy the image web address rather than the image itself.

Awesome

Idea Store is great. Sleek and functional, works great. An awesome place to keep track of ideas on the go. I only wish I had found it sooner. I use it daily... Thanks to the dev!

Nice but quite limited

Cannot reorder notes. Cannot move or copy a note to another group. Cannot email a group of notes. Implement these changes and Ill give IS five stars, but right now its just not that great.

No more scraps of paper

Whenever I needed to write something down quickly, I usually grabbed the nearest scrap of paper or an old envelope. Now I dont do that anymore thanks to this app. It also helps me organize the info until I can file it away somewhere. Ive been using it since I bought my iPhone, and its never let me down, no crashes or lost info. I love it!

Simple, but useful

Im enjoying the app thus far, but there does seem to be some limitations on the apps usefulness. Now, it stream for getting down quick ideas when I have them, but a note-taking app could do the same just about as well. Dont get me wrong, I like the way this app handles quick ideas. The other major criticism I have is the skeuomorphism of the interface. Id love to see Idea Store updated with the beautifully minimalist interface of iOS 7. With an update that adds some features and overhauls the UI, itll be a daily use app for sure

First attempt fail

While the interface looks nice, the app deleted my first entry. The second time I opened it. Not the best way to start off..

Simple, Clean, Organized... Great App

Surprisingly, I just found this app. Its been awhile since you updated but if you decide to do so again please think of adding a couple things. • iCloud sync, Google Drive sync • Open in (so people can send notes to a number of different apps)

Useful, but...

I like this app. Its good for capturing ideas quickly and keeping them organized. To that end, Id like to see an option for it to load directly to a new note page, all set and ready for a new entry. When Ive got something to jot down, Id like to not have to navigate from a home page to "Entries" to "new." The Dropbox integration is TERRIBLE. It is undependable, crude and clunky.

Great

This idea thing has been perfect. More resourceful than simple. It is a cinch to move notes around to other categories, or create in a new category. I can not think of a thing I would want to ask for accept maybe a variety in backgrounds/skins. But thats pushin it.

One of my favorite apps

There are apps that allow user to do more with more complicated structure, but ease of use and quick entry take me back to this one. Also why I use Check ++

So amazing...

This app is by far my favorite organization tool. Ive tried other note apps and this one is the best. I believe it helps form healthy phone habits for creative minded people--whenever I have something I want to remember, I have formed an impulse to go in Idea Store, punch in my password and add it right away. It saves the date and gives you endless options of organization and ways to view your thoughts. Im really excited to have this: it has honestly helped relieve problems with any tension which can stem from forgetfulness and fleeting thoughts (kind of the opposite of most apps.) Visually and structurally a very solid app.

Please Update

Update Please , be creative !

Very Well Made - iOS 7 Update Needed

I like this app a lot! But, do you think you could update the look to match the iOS 7 GUI?

Simply Useless

I honestly dont get why this app is still listed in the store, its one of the most banal, least functional productivity apps around. Not updated in 2 years.

Great for tracking ideas

The thing to keep in mind about Idea Store, and what makes it different from things like Evernote, is that it is a one trick pony, but it does that one trick perfectly - it lets you record and organize ideas. Its not a note taker, list maker or anything else, just an idea storehouse. I use it primarily for tracking ideas for writing projects, for which it does gang busters. The two features that really make it utilitarian, though, are dropbox data sync, so you can use the app across iDevices, and the ability to archive either individual ideas, or entire idea categories. The name really says it all. Dont expect Evernote and youll be thrilled with this app.
