"Why share a note when I can email?" is a common question we get asked when we talk about note sharing.
The simple answer is that you are working from the same copy. So what does that exactly mean? It means if you are sharing a note, the people you are sharing with can see any updates you make to that note when you make them. You make an update one minute, two days, or three weeks later; they can see it in their notes.
With email, once you send it that's it. You send one copy and if you want to update it you send another copy and another. Maybe they only saw the first one and are acting on what you sent then. Maybe there was a reply with updates or changes and they get lost in the number of emails going back and forth. The fact is, you are working off of different copies. Each email sends a new copy and there is no way to see changes.
With a note in UberNote, you can also see revisions of each time a user makes a change to a note.
It's easy to see that sharing notes in UberNote is the easiest way to collaborate and share information.

Is sharing private?
Yes it is. The note can ONLY be seen by you and the people you share it with.
Can I tell who has made changes?
You can view in the history of a note, what changes are made. It will save a revision if the last person who updated the note is different from the current one.
We are also working on adding change tracking to the shared notes, so you can see WHO made the changes in the note itself.
