Notes is a simple but effective app for taking plain text notes and making check lists. It started as a little playground to learn a new dev framework but quickly evolved into the desire to create a meaningful product.
Apps these days tend to offer an elaborate set of features, at the cost of asking the user for many permissions. Notes takes the opposite approach: it carefully picks a small set of essential features so that the user does not have to worry about security and privacy related issues. Your data is yours to keep.
While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).
