Don't OneNote and Evernote already do this kind of thing? (On mobile, haven't tried yours, yet.)
You should be signing apps if the smartscreen prompt really bothers you. Be mad at virus and malware authors that forced this, not Microsoft or Apple.

- naikrovek 8y agoCode signing is not an issue, it is a feature. You can think of it as a way to programmatically check that the executable has not been modified since released by the developer. FOSS sites often recommend that a downloader check the hash of a downloaded file against one provided, never seeming to realize that if an attacker can replace a .iso file that there is a high likelihood that they can modify the MD5 hash shown to match their modified file. Code signing prevents this. Code signing is a good thing.
