Notif, one of our favorite apps of the last year because of its simple yet powerful note taking abilities, that we’ve already written up a couple of times, received a new feature last night thanks to a recent update. In Google Voice Search, as you tell Google to begin a “note to self…,” Notif (pro version only) will show up as one of the options after you have spoken your note. Should you choose Notif, your spoken note will then appear as all Notifs do, in the notification bar until you swipe it away. 

It is always a good day for app updates. Today, we got some from Facebook, Notif, and Sliding Messaging. As with most Facebook updates, there is no changelog, but if and when they decide to post it, we will update the post. As for Notif, there are a few new settings/features such as keyboard popup settings, icon settings, and other little bug fixes. 

“When will Android have a dedicated notes app?” I hear that a lot. Maybe I/O 2013? Until that day happens though, check out Notif. It is a notes app made specifically for devices running Jelly Bean, which allows for the expanding of notifications in the top bar. You can make three different types of notification reminder/lists which all look great and work flawlessly.

First, you have text notes which can have a title and then the body of the message. Then you have picture notifications and lists, which I have previewed above with my grocery list. Tell me again what aisle street cred is on?

Again, it’s for Jelly Bean devices only, so quick apology to everyone else.
