Can not test software at once?
$ 29.99 payable in advance without testing first?

This is an excellent product and I am fine with paying another $30 to update after several years ownership.

My only wish is that it synced between devices, but the developer is working on that, according to the website.

I use this app every day and it saves hours a week. Well worth the modest fee.

For all the whiners about the Mac App Store... It has nothing to do with Apple becoming a "monopoly". No developer is forced to distribute through the App Store. They choose to do so.

Why do they choose to do so? For the simple reason that they actually can make a living now because more people are exposed to their applications and sales increase.

They can now make a fair living through their efforts sold through the App Store, and they can spend more time on development and less on administration and paperwork.

Yet here are people sobbing because they don't get a discount on a $30 app. It's a $30 app, not $300. A developer can spend hundreds of hours delivering a new release, but at low traditional-shareware fees their efforts are reimbursed at below minimum wage.

The app store better rewards developers who provide quality products like myNotes.

Spend less at Starbucks for a couple of days and support small, independent developers.

Well, shoot. This is the whole thing about the Mac App Store... stuff starts to become available ONLY that way... Apple gets more and more of a monopoly, thus can dictate the market... I'm not going to pay full price for an update I don't know is significant just to be tied into the MAS scheme! This is B.S.

I have had this program for some time. Very nice and useful. However as I paid for it once I was expecting a discount with this next upgrade. Imagine my surprise to hear from the developer that I had to purchase it again at full price. This a new angle to me. Guess I will be looking for other software to do this job once my present version no longer works.

Version 2 is a major update and the first paid update for over 6(!) years. Those who purchased previous version during the last two months were eligible for a free upgrade.

Guess I am used to a discount. All the other companies I have dealt with give a discount when upgrading. I have assumed this is the standard practice.

myNotes 2 is available exclusively through Mac App Store and unfortunately App Store doesn't allow developers to create discounts to specific user groups.

I understand that limitation. However, other developers of software I have that are also now in the ap store will continue to email me with upgrade discount options. So I know it is possible to do it that way.

Rpitcairn: We live in a new era. The MAS has made it impossible to get discounts or demos. Honestly, I've seriously started thinking about switching to Windoze or Linux. I've been with Apple products since 1987, but I don't like these recent approaches.

Rpitcairn replied on 21 Oct 2011
I agree, it has changed. I probably like many others made some regretted purchases at the app store and learned my lesson. Now I am not buying anything unless I can demo it first. I think developers are learning this too and I see more options of trying and THEN buying in the Apple store.

With regard to myNotes, I can accept that it's a major upgrade and such. However, it would be nice to have a better sense of what makes this upgrade "major." All MacUpdate says is "new features" and Lion support. I don't think it should be the customer's job to figure out what's new, and I especially don't think I should have to fork out $30 just to see if what's new is really "major" to me or not.

I quite agree. That is what has happened to me in that I purchased something untried, sounded great, but was not really that much after all. A disappointment and no way to get a refund.

Looks like it might be a decent notepad but 29.95 is a lot of money
to shell out without even being able to take it for a test drive.

What's with all these app store developers expecting customers to blindly pay them for products they don't even know will work for them.

Uh oh. The website is down. E-mails to the dev are getting bounced back as undeliverable.

I think this one's gone.

Anyone know whether it still works under OS 10.7

The story is: it's in the App Store. And if you bought it already, you can pay 30$ another time to get a up-tp-date app! Thanks you a lot!

So I give it a try as a replacement for voodoo pad, and I like it except you cant link between notes, this is its major flaw, it will only link internally, ok it has the tree thing going but its not quite right

Great program. Simple, minimal, gets the job done.
There's one major flaw though: the Spotlight doesn't search within the MyNotes.

UPDATE to my previous post:

Even though I used to use a tree up to 3 levels deep, I've found a way to reorganize my notes to where this is no longer necessary. So the current way myNotes works is pretty cool, I just needed to rethink how I did a few things.

After paying for and using it every day for awhile now, I've found only one main thing I would improve:

Often when pasting text from somewhere else into myNotes, it has this annoying habbit of maintaining formatting, causing me to have to go to Edit->Paste And Match Style ... it would be nice if I could set in config to ALWAYS match current style.

Other than that, wonderful software I use every day. I just hope the data is super-stable and secure, as well as easy to back up?
