love the concepts in this app, nicely thought through!

took me a while to figure out the UI and I ended up with lots of notes delayed/hidden. It would be fab if there was a way to list all notes in db, with buttons to edit/re-show/delete.

This would also help the situation when you accidentally snooze something and then can't remember what it was!

Thanks again.

Anyway,

@artfulrobot I second the idea of showing all notes. Using the app I found myself making mistakes and not knowing If I deleted something or snoozed it. Some tooltips or an initial tutorial might help.

@Lumb-Chul Turns out there is a feature. Touch and hold the time button and it will show all pins. Touch and hold post to lock all pins. Sorry for the trouble.

artfulrobot commented 5 years ago

what does it mean for a pin to be locked out unlocked?

nproth commented 5 years ago

I'm sorry you had a hard time figuring out the interface. Providing guidance in the app is definitely important and those two features should be moved to a more accessible location as well.

Also I plan to implement such a list showing all notes eventually.

I hope you can enjoy the app despite its current shortcomings.

Notes pinned to the notification area are unlocked by default, that means that you can swipe the group notification away which snoozes all pins at once. Unfortunately this also happens if all notifications are cleared. To prevent this you can lock your pins so that the group notification and the individual notes it contains can't be swiped away.

@nproth thanks for the explanations. I hope the PR is helpful :-)
