- I don't think you should name it that...
- Cool idea, lock screen notes actually solve a real annoyance. But yeah, you might want to rethink the name—it’s likely to turn people off before they even try it.
- That is a poor choice of naming. Sounds like JewNote.
- I was going to say that too. Perhaps it came from a non-native English speaker. Please change it.
I like the idea, if it's actually safe and you can't use this to get into your phone through some tricky means like a buffer overrun.
- As a non native speaker, it never crossed my mind and I was quite confused at the first comments...
- Mythical Show HN pull
- Great demo video as well, I appreciated that it didn't waste time. I'll echo the comments here though, the name doesn't sit well with some audiences.
- Simple idea, right surface. Lock screen is the most underused real estate on a phone. Curious how you handle the note limit before it gets cluttered.
- First they controlled Hollywood.
Then they controlled all of Politics.
Then they controlled when we went to war.
Now you want them to control your notes???
/s but “Joo” is filterspeak for “Jews”. Sounds antisemitic as fuck.
- Joo is also Finnish for "yes" or "yep", name sounds like "yes-note".
- You are totally right but the name may still be an unfortunate choice for native English speakers
