New to 1.1 is the Synotes History tab in notes view. There isn’t any landscape editing yet, but you can definitely use the app for quick notes or for writing up drafts.

This can be a little disorienting at first, however, since the text shifts according to the presence of the tabs sidebar. The notes screen is also markedly improved, and the sidebar automatically hides itself when you edit a note or press the new tab button along the bottom of the screen. Icons also make more sense to use, as they now function as visual catgories that you can filter through with two quick taps. The list view is more complete and you can now sort notes by creation date, last modification, icon, or in whatever order you please. I haven’t covered everything that has changed because I don’t know the app all that well, but you can see a complete list on the Syncode blog here. There’s probably a better way of putting this into words, but Synotes is simply a lot better this time around. I just assume there isn’t an “s” and move on with my day. I guess I’m just too used to Evernote, Simple Note, Awesome Note, Canada Note, and others, that I just don’t bother reading the end of names any more. I keep referring to Synotes in the singular, even though the actual name of the app is in plural form.
