Specifications

1. The app consists of two major activities:
   • a note-taking activity that accepts a title and text for one or more notes
   • a TODO tracking activity that accepts an entry, with a checkbox to show whether this entry has been done or not done
2. The app should have a user interface that allows for easy access between the note-taking and TODO tracking activities as well as to see their details at a glance.
3. The note-taking activity should provide a view for its notes in a reverse-chronological order, with options for updating and deleting old notes.
4. The TODO-tracking activity should provide a view for its entries with options for updating and deleting old TODOs.
5. The app should make it easy to switch between the note-taking and TODO-tracking activities.
6. The app should make it easy to switch a note to a TODO entry, and vice versa.
7. The release APK of the app should take up no more than 3MB of disk space.
8. The release APK should target Android devices running version 4.4 (KitKat) and up.
