Nebulous Notes app for iPhone and iPad

Ive tried all the apps for writing my next novel and settled on Nebulous Notes. Why?: * excellent word search function, right from the keyboard - a feature sorely missing in most other apps! * customisable keyboard * seamless DropBox sync * TextExpander compatibility

I love the way I can manage my notes on Dropbox in real time: I use it like a database! Very powerful search engine to find files and words accross all stored files. I did not use the macros manager yet. Bravo for the developers!

Since i update to the last version and update to ios 9 (on ipod touch 5G), on my notes i cant scroll down to see my entire document. So my notes are nonexistant !

…why nobody is telling the world that this is a fantastic useful editor. Its my one (and only so far!) editor on the iPod and iPad with which I can edit _all_ text files on my Macs which I strongly hold on Dropbox to have them synced. All the other editors rely on a special directory. Would be great to see Sugarsync supported...

Best note taking and writing app for IOS and Dropbox. Its the app for the geekier ones.

Ive been using Nebulous Notes for more than a year now, and I couldnt praise its reliability and usefulness highly enough. From seamless text zoom, great interface customization (green on black anyone?), a powerful macro system to a very good Dropbox-integration this app stands out from all the other writing apps. And make no mistake: This thing isnt just for notes, as its author claims. I use it to frequently collaborate on longer pieces of text via Dropbox, thanks to Nebulous transparent encoding options. With the new MultiMarkdown-support that includes footnotes, I can now even start to sketch out scientific papers. Some seldom crash bugs (albeit without any loss of data) remain, and the interface is not as sexy as those of some of its competitors. Furthermore native support for rich text documents could boost compatibility with Windows environments, but apart from these small issues, this is one of the programmes I gladly give a five-star-rating.

The app dosent Work anymore .... Unable to open the app just the splash screen and Theniere good bye (ios6.1) Tanks in advance for your very very fast update

WARNING: the software is not syncing offline changes: existing notes can be read offline, they can be changed offline, but with the next dropbox connection they are overwritten by the data in dropbox, so your offline changes are lost. The notes are opened by default on Mac0SX with TextEdit, but TextEdit cannot handle the given text format correctly, special characters like äöüß are sooner or later displayed wrongly and then also wrongly overwritten on the iPod. Same with Microsoft Word. TextWrangler e.g. can handle the special characters properly. There are some minor bugs I dont want to list here, too. In principle the use of a note app via dropbox is a very good idea, but I will check out the alternatives or wait until this one is working properly.

When I first got this about a year ago, it worked very well: fast and efficient. Now, it is cumbersome and slow (IPAD2). It repeats keys and is usually a second or 2 behind, which makes it very difficult to type efficiently.

For a long time, this used to be my favourite editor (even with it minor flaws) until it stopped staying in full screen mode through rotation. I use an external (Bluetooth) keyboard and I frequently rotate the device. The files bar automatically shows in landscape mode. Keep it full screen mode whenever I rotate, please! Then I will go back to 4-or-5-star review on the next app update. (I anxiously await each and every update!) More detail: As a deaf software developer, it is also my favourite collaboration tool. Somebody else is often holding the iPad while I am typing some communications on keyboard (in a pinch-zoomed larger font so everyone can read). But when they start to rotate the iPad (intentionally or accidentally), the files bar automatically shows, and interrupts the typing unlike past versions that kept working. Please, provide an option to keep the sidebar permanently hidden.

I was a big fan of Nebulous Notes and used it for work every day. But in iOS 9 its laggy to the point of being unusable. Shame. Im looking for a different note editor, and will have to migrate all of my work over.

And to open the 661 characters of the file until they can be manipulated to wait about 30 seconds. Search button is also waiting press and 30 seconds.
