What it would take to rank
The App Store indexes 160 characters of you: a 30-character name, a 30-character subtitle and a hidden 100-character keyword field. A word counts once across all three, so “note taking” needs to appear in exactly one of them — and Apple builds phrases from single words, so the two or three words in this term can each sit separately.
Which field it belongs in depends on what it is worth against everything else you are chasing. That trade is what App Store metadata, field by field is about, and choosing keywords you can rank for covers how the three numbers above are worked out.
