#1 Top Paid Productivity App, #7 Top Paid App in any category - May, 2010
The screenshots show the making of a multi-media note...
Much more than a "notes" app, Moes Notes gives you the power to record ideas and thoughts you have, quickly, on the fly, without having to name or categorize them. What kind of thoughts might you record?
* shopping lists
* photos of cars, animals, plants, or other items to check out
* audio/video walkthroughs of real estate
* stories, meetings, classes, lectures, jokes, concerts, and other audio gems
* to-do lists
* citizen journalism pieces
* audio/visual emails
For each note, Moes Notes stores:
* audio
* photo
* video
* freehand sketching
* text
* tags
* GPS location
Later, you can easily find a note with simple yet powerful filters. You only have to remember one little thing about it to find it:
* some text within it
* some tag you assigned to it
* some notion of when you recorded it
* some notion of where you recorded it
(The latter is accomplished with particular flair. All your notes are displayed as pins on a map. You then a box around the notes you want. See the last screenshot.)
Now youve found your note again. Would you like to edit it? Moes Notes really shines here:
* audio - trim, change volume, strip silence, reverse, change speed
* visual - organize any number of images and/or videos
* image - crop, resize, change brightness
* drawing - rectangular box or freehand
* video - trim, create thumbnail, grab frames
* text - insert data from Address Book
* tags - choose from list or type in new
* location - drag, set from Address Book
* date/time
What next? In many cases, youll want to share your note with the outside world. Moes Notes provides several ways to do this:
* email
* MoeMail - email directly into the note lists of other Moes Notes/Notepad users
* Facebook - upload text, images, videos
* Camera Roll - copy images/videos to and from your Camera Roll
* iTunes File Sharing - transfer audio/image/video files to your laptop
* (integration with web services is coming)
Or maybe your note is about something you have to do later. You can set an "Alert" for a note that causes it to be opened automatically sometime in the future. You can choose which media within the note to display or play! The alert will notify you even if Moes Notes isnt running, even if your device is asleep.
Soon, youll have 100s of notes. You may finding yourself wanting to email, upload, rename, or re-tag many notes at once. No problem! Moes Notes has a "Batch Mode", which allows you this power! (Tech note: Moes Notes is written largely in efficient C++. Its note list operates blazingly fast, even with 1000s of notes.)

NOTE: Many of the advanced editing features listed above can be tried for free a few times. Then you can purchase just the in-app upgrades for the features you use.
History Note: In 2010, Moes Notes was published by the San Francisco App Studio, which went out of business. Unfortunately, this required that this app be re-launched by Moes Kitchen, the original creator. If you bought Moes Notes last year, thank you very much! I hope you will consider checking out the new Moes Notes. New features include:
* multiple images/videos per note
* freehand sketching
* video frame grabbing
* Address Book integration
