Post-it Notes

I loved using physical post-it notes for my huge physical Kanban whiteboard in the office. You know, in the old days when we used physically go to the office? So, I was very excited to try out their mobile app. It was a joy to use and explore but it lacks key features for me like markdown support (imagine that in a post-it) and the ability to add images and audio attachments. What I really enjoyed were the bright colors which made me feel good while I was testing it. As you'd expect from a big company, they provide a lot of help and tons of export options including the hip cloud tool Miro and PowerPoint for the older generation. Bottom line? Post-it Notes is worth downloading and trying out but I wouldn't use it for any serious note taking.
