In my opinion, this app tries to make outgoing calls far too often for an app that I rarely use to jot down a note or two. If you install it, you can expect about 300,000 connection attempts per month. Of course, you won’t notice this if you don’t have an outgoing firewall installed. Apart from that, it works as expected. Personally, I wouldn’t have bought it if I had known about its behavior beforehand.
