Yeah, I can access dropbox fine but if i have to reset my phone to get this app ever to open again i am not going to be very happy. And I can't depend on it if it is going to do things like this. I was thinking of using this instead of pages for my worship file every Sunday morning that has all my songs and Scripture passages in it. But when somebody's picked me up late and church is about to start and I'm trying to set up one iPhone for taking notes and the other for my worship file plus getting a bluetooth keyboard going for one and a braille display going for the other, the last thing I would need is an AccessNote app that won't open! I wouldn't have time to reset my phone! Pages may have some slight aggravations but at least it always opens! I don't want to be unfair; if I find out there's a way to keep this from happening I'll be glad to use AccessNote but for now it's too much of a risk out in an environment where I have to set up a lot of technology in a short period of time. It all either has to work right away just about every time or it's not worth it!
