+ Extras>Text compare now allows for importing and comparing text files
+ Hotstrings - Similar to hotkeys, hotstrings are a great way of saving time for frequently used phrases and wording. To access/create a list of hotstrings, from the main menu choose the Hotstrings option then simply enter a shortcut word on the left then enter some text to the right and save. To apply a hotstring, from within a note hit the edit menu in the top left and click the hotstring on the lower bar you wish to apply.

PLBelanger, I'm new to Samsung Galaxy S3. I really like the iPhone default Notes. Once I opened the SGS3 default S_??? I didn't like it. You can only create one page at a time. Blah!

Downloaded your Classic Notes. It was the same if not worse. However after reading your thread it sounds like your app can do a lot.

The Classic Notes I downloaded was free. Do you have a Classic Notes that I have to purchase, but a much better App then the free version?

I have one week left before I can turn my phone back in. So far I had 3 or 4 issues with the SGS3 and notes is one of them. I need the notes to create daily To Do lists, Prayer List etc. I also need it to have the ability to be more than one page or automatically switch to the next page while I'm inputting info.

I want to give the Phone and Your App a fair chance before giving up on it.

Where can I get a copy of the Manual for your App?

Thank you, and hope your App is successful.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by only one note at a time. Can you explain?

Updated with the following changes:

- Zar added to currency preference (request)
- Cut at width option added in text utilities - Will cut every line of text in a note at the specified width
- Split pane option added. Open 2 notes/files in a single view. Nice for comparison or reference. Can also highlight differences between the two texts. Both views can be saved. Can be accessed from the note edit menu.
- Option added to place cursor position at either the beginning or end of a note when opening.
- Bug fixes

Updated:
- Added option for hotstrings to be placed at cursor position as opposed to mass replacement of the shortcut word (though that is still there if you like that method)
- Added split-pane clone option. This will simply copy the current note into the split-pane.
- Added a help dialog for hotstrings (top right) in case anyone is unsure of what it actually is lol.
- Hotstrings can now be access from the "new" menu

PL Belanger, Two statements. When I use the Note Classic with a long note, the page refreshes back to the beginning and the keyboard pops up every time. Sometimes I like to view my list whether it's a Christmas List, Prayer List or Shopping list.

If I'm shopping, look at the list the keyboard pops up. While I'm still shopping and the screen goes blank, and I need to look at the list again as I pick items off the shelf, the screen comes back with the keyboard instead of just the list. Is there a way to have only the list come back until I hit edit. Then the Keyboard should come back.

Question 2). I notice on the freebee app, there's an Advertisement. Is that from you or Samsung? If it's from you, how much do you charge to advertise? Paul

OK, I will look into the issue. As for the ad, that is from me but it's not me who charges but rather Google :)
