RemoteNote

RemoteNote v.1.0.3

RemoteNote is a native iPhone/Touch application which allows you to remotely edit, print, and backup the notes stored on your iPhone/Touch using a standard browser (Safari, Opera, IE, Firefox, etc) and a wifi connection. RemoteNote also requires Adobe Flash Player.

RemoteNote is freely available via the Community Sources on App Tapp Installer, thanks to BigBoss. It has been officially tested on iphone firmware 1.1.3 and 1.1.4, but should also run on older firmware(s).

Great work on this application! I always keep my settings to power off the Touch after 2 mins of inactivity. Would it be possible for your application to change this on starting to leave it on (would be nice if it also dimmed the screen for power saving). Would also be nice if there was a button to restore settings prior to shutting down application…

Thanks for the great work!

Thanks Dave!

I’ve started on a new feature that will alert you in the editor if your phone becomes unreachable. I will look into changing settings as you describe as that may be a welcome addition.

There is an application called ‘Insomnia’ available on Installer that might help in the meantime.

Great Application – functionality is excellent, finally a solution to editing and copy/paste to notes. Keep up the good work.. Future features? well I would love to be able to create a note in Remote note, at the moment I have to create a note on the iphone then go into remote note and paste in the text. This may already be available, however I didn’t see that capability? cheers

this is a great tool!
Is it possible to secure RemoteNote with user name and password. I’m using it in the office and that allows everybody to see and edit my notes.

Fantastic app! Elegant, simple design that just, well… WORKS!

How about the ability to import text files?…

Paul B. Yorke

Love the app,

Just wanted to mention one thing. I notice that the when I create or edit a note using your app each individual note (if I look at the HTML source) is surrounded with paragraph tags ( ie: p This Note /p) and when I view the note on my iphone I see that the note no longer lines up with the lines (the background image).

Going back I edited each individual note in the HTML editor and took out the p takes and at the end of each paragraph put two br takes br br and the result is it lines up properly again. Just wanted to throw that out there.

I am very impressed with the work you are doing. I have see this from the first version till now and have see it grow by leaps and bounds. I have been waiting for this type of an app. Now we need Apple to put in something to separate the notes by categories (similar to the way memos worked on palm pilots).

Any chance of turning this app into something that would automagically sync with my desktop? (even if it is intiated by me, this would be a very nice feature to have) I suppose you could have something that reads the notes in Mac Mail and then contacts the iphone to update the notes etc.

Thanks

Remotenote, One of the most useful apps on and for the iphone.

There is a better iPhone notes app called “moleskine.”
is there any way remotenote could work with this app?

Thank you for this.

Is there somewhere that describes how to restore from the download for a neebie?

22 04 2008
Hans J. Albertsson

First: This is an immensely useful app!
One of the most useful ever!

However, international characters, i e non-ascii, don’t work, or rather, not fully.

When downloaded from the iPod, the A-like characters, å & ä, get downloaded as a.
Odd. and Ö comes down as O. Odd, to say the least

However, uploading to the iPod after editing in the non-ASCII characters preserves the å, ä and ö-s.

So, it’s not simple stripping, and it should probably be easy to fix.

hi there – small bug – when you insert a time-stamp for, say, 1 minute after 12, it will show as 12:1

keep up the good work! Good use of TinyMCE editor.

Feature request – allow the port to be set (it’s probably in a plist file somewhere if I wanted to make the change myself, right?)

mike talmor

hi guys great app. 2 problems: 1) no support for hebrew characters, not a big problem because i can still copy and paste and no harm done, but sometimes it would be good to justify right or left.
The other and bigger problem – once i enter my notes from the Iphone and make even a smallest change – the header of the note dissappears from the main NOTES page, ie it shows only the date and time of being edited and the name of the note dissappears (only on the main page, in the note itself it still shows). Any suggestions? I have 1.4.1 …
Thanks for the effort!!!

Hey John,
Love your app. I have been waiting for an app like this for a long time. Extremely useful to me.
On little bug I noticed: It replaces the + sign in notes with a space. You can put it back in using the web interface and all is okay but if you put one in a note on the iphone then read it in the web interface it is gone. Just though you would like to know, no big deal though.

Nice job!

Hi, I appreciate it for your program
but I can’t use that program.. it has some error
I use Korean Language..
when I contact my server throught RemoteNote,
I saw unusual text..
like this

what’s problem, that?, Could you make it this problem?

8 05 2008
Andres

If you load a note created in notes that does not have the title on the first line
(has a blank first line) … initially the title will be displayed correctly. Once you make a change and save, the title will disappear – more accurately the title will become the blank line. Deleting the first blank line will fix the problem, but it can be disconcerting the first time it happens.

Hi!
I have emailed you about a week ago regarding the unicode support on your great app. I just installed new version and checked out. As other guys are pointing out in their comments, unicode support doesn’t seem to work correctly. Big thanks in advance!:)

9 05 2008
John Robinson

Could anyone having trouble with unicode email me some screenshots and some info as to what they’re seeing, and what they should see?

Also, I need to know where the characters are showing properly and where they are not. By that I mean, are characters showing up correctly in the editor, and not in the phone, or vice-versa? As well, are characters entered on the phone showing correctly on the phone, and not in the RN editor?

Thanks!
john

Great work! Really useful and simply makes sense.

Yet it seems to be not to be supporting other languages (Chinese) properly. All the text become strange code in the browser interface. Look forward to seeing the next release and hope you can have it fixed!

Excellent application. Being able to edit using a “real” keyboard is so productive, as is being able to copy/paste from other apps.

I especially like it because it is clean and simple with not too many bells & whistles.

8 06 2008

Greg –
Make sure you’re typing the address exactly (there’s a ‘:’ between the ip-address and the port number, not a ‘/’). If you get a page not found error then that means you’re connecting to the phone but the address is not right.

Hope that helps!

Sounds like a great app, but when I installed it on my iPhone with the installer, the program just went straight to asking me for a username and password, it did not ask for a donation or anything. I have no idea how to get a username and password and would really like to get this app working. Thanks

Great app as the note pad function was one app I really planned on using and this makes it so easy compared to type each on the itouch. Hope others help you also with donations. Well worth it to me.

AARGH! My remote note no longer works. It opens on my iPhone but when accessing it from Firefox the page is blank apart from the RemoteNote logo and it then crashes on the iPhone!

I’ve tried changing the username and password in case it was incorrect, to no avail.

I’ve also uninstalled and reinstalled. It’s version 1.0.3.

Could this be due to upgrading to Firefox 3?

23 06 2008

I should add that I get the blank page in IE too but it doesn’t crash the phone.

Hi,

This is a great and much needed app, thank you.

There is another app making the rounds called Moleskine that allows the user to organize notes into hierarchical folders. While it can import from notes.app, it does not make changes available back in the original notes. Of course, the added context of the folders would not be available there either, even if it did, so the notes become a bit of a walled garden.

So, my question w/o knowing the backend of either app is whether there is some synergistic development potential between the two? Exportable, Hierarchically Organized Notes?!?!?! The combo would be the must have note management solution for iP/Touch users.

Thanks!

Well, this app looks really awesome but my experience with so far has been nothing short of Hellish hahaa

I have an Iphone 1.1.14, installed this through Cydia, got it up and working but get the Jiggy errors and anyway i clicked the backup at one point & then went into my notes app and noticed there were no fucking notes left!!!

It had deleted them all…

Well no problem i thought as i have the back up right?

I’ve read every comment posted on this site for all versions of RemoteNote and nothing recommended has remedied this annoying(to put it mildly) situation…
I’m not going to ‘restore’ my iphone over this as that would just be too dam tiresome so there must be some remedy after all i have dam notes.db file but when i go restore it pops up with more errors(tried the adding notes in notes before restoring it!) and in the notes app the backed files appear for a few seconds until you try to access it and resets back to the normal blank state…

Everything Gonnnneeeeeee!!!!

You would not believe the amount of material i had on there and this has come as a total kick to groin… hahahaaa I’m completely gutted lol
