Interesting app! I'm always glad to reduce friction between idea and transcription.

That said, the lawyers at Palm Software will have a field day in regards to trademark. They've been in the note-taking app business for ages.



Correct. I was taking notes on their Palm devices over a decade ago.


But their devices and apps look completely different from mine. Also there are some other apps with the same name: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=spazee.pnote&h...


I would expect a combination of name and functionality as sufficient to draw their ire, regardless of appearance. A lawyer can give better advice than I can, though.
