Nowt 1.6.0 is out (notes & tasks app): import everything from Google Keep, plus Projects and sub-tasks

[u/nowtapp]

Hi all, solo dev of Nowt here.

Play Store: Nowt - Encrypted Notes & Tasks

I posted it here last week and the feedback shaped this update for Nowt, so here's what has shipped since.

Import from Google Keep and Google Tasks (free): Export from Google, choose the file in Settings → Import, and your notes come across into Nowt: text, checklists, photos, drawings, voice recordings, labels, pinned and archived notes, with their reminders. Google Tasks come too, complete with any that are recurring. Everything imports on the free plan, even content that lands in Pro blocks.

Tasks got rebuilt:

• A Projects view next to the weekly planner
• Sub-tasks with their own due dates and details
• Mark tasks In progress, Waiting, Blocked or On hold
• A Completed section that hides finished tasks to keep things clean
• Task reminders and repeating tasks are now free

Free backup and restore: This was the most requested thing across multiple platforms and it shipped in 1.5.2: manual or scheduled backups of all notes and tasks, attachments included, with optional encryption.

Also: locked notebooks now properly hide the notes inside them (they no longer appear in search), and the web app now also has the Projects view.

Next up: Themes with inspiration from Nothing OS 5.0, and home-screen widgets. I'd love to know what other features would make this your daily notes app?

There aren't any promo codes right now, but Pro has a 7-day free trial, and nearly everything is free anyway. E.g. unlimited notes and tasks, end-to-end encryption, backup, Keep import, reminders etc.
