- I guess you just started that thread yourself ;-)
Our Files & Folders app is used a lot by business & home users alike, and has been the #1 productivity app for PlayBook in App World since August.
It lets you manage your local and cloud files (Dropbox, Box, Google Docs), converts many files from one format to another (e.g. doc to pdf), handles .zip files and even lets you e-mail files via most e-mail services. Take the trial version for a spin, and check out the built-in manual for tips & tricks.Last edited by Innovatology; 01-31-12 at 11:04 PM.

It allows you to take photos, videos, audio and text notes but unlike Evernote, it stores it locally. You can share notes with Dropbox if you need to take it elsewhere off the PB. Until Evernote on the PB catches up, this will be my "go to" note app.
I'm not sure why it's in the Utilities section, seems like it should be under Productivity and that may be why it's never mentioned.
If anyone else has used it or is going to try it, let me know what you think.02-01-12 12:05 PMLike 0 - ill give that a go, sure.
Edit: ok tried it, bought the fullversion. probably should have started out with the free at first.
overall ui looks nice, be nice if i could change the colours or if the dev had used something less orange and yellow.
i like that i can save audio and video to a note and task.
really hate the "are you sure you want to do this?" popups. reminds me of ms vista. dev should get rid of that to reduce cliicks.
it has potential.
wouldnt it be nice if these note and task todo apps could also synch with native memo/tasks, which are turn synched tomy outlook?Last edited by spatialmongrel; 02-01-12 at 01:02 PM.

I also lament that there is still no one app that meets all my needs - it's a shame I need both GroovyNotes and Note Smartly. Hopefully one of these developers, or Evernote, comes through with the critical updates.02-01-12 01:24 PMLike 0
