Memo a day is a neat memo app that allows you to take short notes and set reminders. They can be password protected if you choose to enable this feature, and you can also title the note and then simply leave a voice note if you don’t have time to be thumb typing at that moment.

This app is only 8.1MB so if you don’t like the Notes app, it is a nice supplement. That being said, I have tried a few notes apps and much prefer Evernote which is 59.2MB. It’s not huge either, and has all the same features plus a lot more space for your memo. It does not however have color coding options.
Memo a day is not so easy to use. There is a whole list of swiping motions that you have to memorize to delete, set as done, and open the control board. This list initially repeats twice, making it look a lot more daunting than it is. I took a screen shot of these motions for future reference.
Another complaint is that the menus are in Chinese characters. This isn’t a huge deal, because by tapping on them I realized that the left character is the settings menu, and the right character is the about menu.
Once you get used to the swiping controls, this app is easy enough to use. The memo field is limited to 15 lines, but does not seem to be limited to characters. The memo field also changes color when you change the color of your note. I like this feature as it helps you to classify information.
I am a color coding nut, so having five colors would help me separate my notes such as blue for home, yellow for work, green for kids, light blue for grocery notes, and orange for random musings.
Pros
Cons
Memo a day - Tell you what to do & Remind Anywhere & Password Protected & Easy to use is an iPad and iPhone app designed to help you with keeping password protected notes that you can also set a reminder for.
There is also a voice note option, which is really great for when you don’t have time to thumb type. I like many of the features of the app, however, there is no way to back up the notes like there is in other apps such as the iOS Notes or Evernote.
Overall, it's a nice little app, but further development is needed.
