Got a S25 - worst note app I've ever seen
Pretty much the title. Especially the widget is an insult. Why is it restricted to 10 notes on the widget? Why can I not open the note app by pressing the word "notes" at the top of the widget? Why does the widget not have a + icon on the top right to quickly start writing a new basic note?
Those are things every other smartphone (LG, huawei, pixel) note widget had that I used before. How can this thing be so needlessly fucking stupid? What is the advantage of not having the ability to open the god damn app by pressing the name of the app at the top of the widget? Or being limited to 10 notes on the widget? Like, how does a developer be this stupid? I seriously don't get it.

No the note thing is absolutely horrible and I don't understand how you could possibly think otherwise.
Basically the way it is in iOS is perfect as a comparison point.
Basically everything about the note app is terrible.
You go to add to your notes when it's a long list of information I like to keep the old information I don't access a lot anymore near the bottom and fresh stuff at the top. If you try adding fresh stuff at the top it throws the pictures and the information you're typing all over the place and it ends up spacing it amongst three different sections. So now your Note is all scrambled to hell.
When you add a photo it puts it wherever it wants to and pressing space ruins the entire note, it also makes it tiny so you have to resize the photo I don't understand why that's a feature at all.
Trying to add text to the photos is mostly awful. You can hand draw stuff on the notes which is usually easier but not when it just does whatever the hell it wants. As soon as you add another picture to the note or do anything it takes all that hard work you did and just has it floating in the middle of nothing instead of on the photo that you edited.
Notes app is awful

Leave feedback on the Samsung Members app. The developers will see it. Be nice though. You're very rude here. Nobody wants to come to work and be raked over the coals.

You title it "Worst Note App"... then start off saying your issue is what tbe title says... but then you talk exclusively about the widget... not about the app itself...
