Springpad, one of the popular productivity service is shutting on June 25th. It is definitely sad to see such a useful note-taking service shutting its doors. It is working on a new export tool that would let users export all their content easily before it shuts down in less than one month from now.
There are a lot of note-taking apps, but Springpad competes with Evernote with its unique features such as notebook templates to organize gift shopping, meal planning, movies, and more. Evernote eventually launched several other services such as Skitch, a drawing and annotation app for Android and iOS, after acquiring the company. Other apps include, Evernote Hello and Evernote Food, but it has been months since these apps have been updated.
Springpad that started 6 years back has more than 5 million users, said the company on their official blog. If you are looking for an alternative, you can check out Evernote, Google Keep, Microsoft One Note.
[Update: Sprinpad has released a data migration tool that lets you export Springpad data to Evernote. You can also download an HTML export of your Springpad data to save it locally. ]
