What notepad app do you use?

Switched to a new android phone and my notes aren't stored in a cloud environment, so having to transfer manually.

What apps do you use that have cloud storage?
Alternative solutions welcome.

I just use Google's Keep Notes for simple reminders and notes, might not be what you're looking for if you need more advanced features though.

How to increase the font size in google keep?

I've been playing around with Bundled and is a good alternative to Keep: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xaviertobin.noted

Was using colour note, then swapped to Google keep

Color note. Used it for years. You can back up with Google so swapping phones isn't an issue.

SimpleNote. Been using it for years. It's got a lovely clean interface and works on all platforms.

Since very early android I've been using Colornote. It's straightforward, you either make notes or lists and the only other thing you can change is the colour of each "sticky note" you make.

I have Evernote installed. It's packed with features - so many that I've been too hesitant to use it.

I run my personal life with Evernote. I would be lost without it. To get the best from it you need the Premium version though.

Some tips for those that use it or are thinking of using it.
- Install the WebClipper into your browser
- Install Scannable - this is a separate App supplied by Evernote and integrates with it. I now scan all important documents into it using my phone camera.
- If you have a Apple pen or Android equivilant - look at Penultimate - again a separate App supplied by Evernote for maximising pen notes. They are then searchable within Evernote - even my appalling handwriting comes back correct more often than not.
