I was texting a friend and as I was walking in my apt I saw this in the box to send


I've been using ColorNote and I think you might like it. Check it out from your Android phone:

*Note: Tap the Market icon in the Complete action screen that appears after you tap the link above.

So is color notes trying to hide spam in their programs? All I know is I am uninstalling it and I am very mad. So anyone else seen this happen?

Damn i hope this isn't the case. Color note is hands down the best memo app i have used to date. Between its lock settings, ease of use and just the sheer fact that it's nothing more than a quick note app.

I have yet to notice anything like you mentioned above using it. However if this does turn out to be the case it will be gone for sure.

Does Color notes sync between itself and Google Calendar, or just its own built in calendar? I'm using Gtasks, but the UI in Colornotes is better. I just want my notes/lists either synced to Tasks or Calendar, but I like a less cluttered "simpler" app.

Color note actually goes pretty easy on the permissions. Network communication (limited Internet access), system tools (prevent phone from sleeping) and storage (save to sd card). None involving sms, which they would need to do that. It is quite impossible that the spam came from the color note app. Maybe it was from a third party sms app?

I ran it through my Addons Detector, to be safe. It doesn't have any addons, not even for advertising.

It sync's to its own calendar only. (I wish it could sync to google calendar.)

I haven't experianced any of the OP's issues either.
