    I've been using Catch notes for the past couple of years for note taking; saving stuff off the web; making lists; saving important info... Its a very well put together app & is very visual and its stand out feature is that it makes sense! It is actually my favorite app, so I'm a wee bit disappointed that its being discontinued.

    I've used Evernote and Springpad in the past but didn't find the very intuitive, so they rarely got used.

    Can anyone recommend a really good app for this type of thing?

    I've used catch for a few years now. I have about 50 saved notes. It's the best notes app I've used. I don't think there is anything comparable but will follow this thread with interest.

    Will you not still be able to use it after it's discontinued?

    No, it will be taken offline.

    I'm looking into using a mix of Keep & Pinterest, but Pinterest is proving a bit troublesome and even using two apps doesn't seem to achieve what Catch does... Its amazing that an app with over 5 million users is not seen as viable...

    The app will still work, but the notes won't be saved in the cloud (which is the important part).

    I'd happily pay a few quid for it (as I'm sure a large percentage of their 5m+ users would too). They're taking it a new direction, so maybe that's on the cards.
