You don't even have a domain and are already charging $19 for "unlimited" notes? I like the app, it's not a bad idea, but the business model is not great.

Just storing notes isn't a great feature, there are thousands of note-taking apps out there. On Telegram itself you can just send messages to yourself and they will be stored, editable and deletable.

Hmmm... What would you recommend instead?

FOSS with donations. I'm not sure if people would want to pay to use this, but if it looked nice and was FOSS then people would probably donate.

agree because paying 19$ for this product is not worthy. as telegram already provides telegra.ph which is free of cost. FOSS with donations is a perfect monetisation strategy.

Only if your monetization goal is less than a few bucks per month.

That's some serious Shit HN Says. Thanks for the chuckle.

It's a service that exists solely through a platform that already provides a competing service for free. A few bucks per month is as good as it's going to get.
