Android Apps: ColorNote
There are a lot of note taking applications available in the Android Market. Most of the ones that I tried were either too simple or had just too many features that I would never use. ColorNote solved that problem for me. ColorNote by Social & Mobile is the best application that I found that is not only easy to use but also has the right amount of features so as not to overwhelm you, add to that the very neat and clean interface, and you have a real winner of an application.
ColorNote is an application that does exactly what it claims to do and it does that very well. The note taking can be in two different formats. You can either write a simple text note in case you want to jot down something that crossed your mind or you can create a checklist or a “to do” list that you can check off as you go along. The notes can be saved in various colors and you can choose this at the time of creating the note. The notes that you create can also be stuck to your home screens as widgets. As soon as you try to add the ColorNote widget, it shows you the list of notes that you have in ColorNote and you can choose the right one at that time.
Highly recommended!

Regarding the Android Color Note feature. Agree, useful. HOWEVER, I recently updated my phone and cannot restore (“import”) my old notes. I know they exist as I see them on the SD card. I tried the backup option and no luck. Any ideas? Thanks and keep up the great work.

@michael Yeah… you are right. Colornote has no import feature and that really sucks. Maybe we should write to the developer. Thats one benefit we have through the market.

Is there a way to import data to a ColorNote? I use Outlook and obviously can’t get my Notes to my Droid through CompanionLink. Can I simply connect the Droid via USB and somehow cut/paste my data to a ColorNote

@BigShot Thats the only thing about ColorNote. I have yet to hear the developer talk about import/export. A lot of users have requested this and maybe in a future avatar, ColorNote will have that feature.

ColorNote, Am I missing something what is the point of having a backup option with no restore ?????

@phillip You can restore the notes from the backup that you make. What the others are saying is that you can’t import notes from other programs that you may have used on your android phone or on your PC or Mac. To restore the notes in ColorNote simply click on the the backup that you have made.
