Simple note-taking apps seem to be on the rise. Fetchnotes belongs to this category, but it left me wishing that its developers had filled out its slender roster of features. After you create an account to make notes accessible from any device, you tap a plus symbol and type a thought. You can apply hashtags, but their purpose is confusing. The #books tag, for example, seems intended to generate a link to Amazon for the book you want; in my tests, however, a note referring to the Bible created an Amazon link to a, well, much more obscure work by an anonymous author. And tapping the hashtagged word doesn't show you other notes with the same hashtag. Similarly, you can mention a friend on Fetchnotes using a Twitter-like "@"nickname.
