Great App But Unusable Without a Search Feature

I really like Letterly and was looking forward to using it in my daily life. I have ADHD and this is something I have been looking for to help organise my muddled brain.

Unfortunately, it is totally unusable for me as it is. This is very disappointing.

For some strange reason, that I do not understand, there is no ability to search anything. And, as it is purely phone based, it doesn't take long, or many notes to get yourself totally lost and frustrated trying to find something you want to refer back to. Surely, this is a basic feature for any type of software where content is created and stored?

I wrote to support, who were responsive, who agreed a search was a good idea but informed me there was not timeline for a search option at this time.

If you make several notes per day, it doesn't take long to for your notes to get lost and then struggle to refer to anything you have done.

I also have voicenotes which does not yet have a mobile version, which is a pain, but you can easily question and interrogate your notes and it provides a comprehensive and informative reply with all relevant answers. When out, I have to record my thoughts on my phone and play them back to my desktop when. get home, which is not ideal but at least it is a workaround.

There are a lot of pros with Letterly and I am sure it will grow into a capable app overtime.

Oftentimes, with deals on Appsumo, I buy and sit on them and wait for them to mature and iron out the kinks, but with the speed that AI is evolving and there are a huge number of new apps and software popping up everyday, I think that this one is a refund for me I am sorry to say.

Thank you so much for such a detailed review!

Regarding the search feature - navigation is currently one of our top priorities. We can't give exact dates because we want to avoid making empty promises. But we're actively working on it, we even have the design ready. Just hold on a bit longer! And this isn't the only thing we're working on right now, surprises will keep coming :)

With the upcoming implementation of the search feature, we hope to improve in your eyes!
