Ratings and Reviews
Great app on iOS ... great future for Mac
This is a great app on iOS, and I am sure will be too on the Mac. It has all the really useful notetaking features, (plain text and flavours of markdown - no images etc) and syncs beautifully with the iOS versions. Menu bar apps and shortucts useful too.
Those used to the iOS app will be looking forward to the implementation of actions wit this app too - which is what gives the iOS is real power and makes it immensely useful.
The free version has all the basic features, and the subscription version add somes embellishments mostly about look and feel.
Workspaces is also included in the subscription, which is a kind of saved search (using tags) which will be very usefl to anyone with a large number of notes.
Very pleased with the response from the developers when I pointed out a bug in the first public version of the mac app - quick reply and quick fix.
First stop for taking notes. Even better when paired with iOS
I've been using Drafts for years on my iPhone as my instant note-taker. Having a sync'ed version of it on my Mac now makes the workflow complete.
If you've not used it, it takes away the 'pain' of working out where to put notes, snippets, content etc - until after you've captured. That's the right way round, too. Once you've done that, then - via actions - you can move the notes into whichever app or recipient you want.
Actions aren't included in the Mac version yet, but that doesn't stop you from using this great app.
My favourite app by far
I've been a productivity geek since the 90's, ok, i'm getting old. This app has so much power in in't simplicity. It is so easy to use, yes so customisable as well. The fact i've bothered to write a review is testiment enough.
You can get stuff into it through a chromebook and Windows too, the fact all of your apple devices are instantly updated as a highly flexible text capture app it is brilliant.
