Ratings and Reviews
My Brain’s New BFF
Anytype has quickly become my favorite app for organizing everything. It’s local-first, which means all my data stays on my device, making it super fast and private. But it still backs up to the cloud, so I get the best of both worlds. Honestly, I don’t understand why more apps don’t take this approach.
The Mac and iOS versions are so well-designed and optimized for each device that it feels like an Apple product at heart. There’s a bit of a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll appreciate how powerful and versatile it is. (I hope they add support for Apple Intelligence this fall!)
If you’re looking for a fast, private, and seamlessly integrated tool that feels like it was built with Apple’s attention to detail, give Anytype a try. You won’t regret it!
I broke up with Notion
Anytype is a great blend of Notion and Obsidian’s features, while not feeling overly complex to pick up and learn — especially if you're already somewhat familiar with Notion’s workflow.
The speed and ability to work offline is what finally won me over after years of being a daily Notion user. I do miss Notion’s excellent spreadsheet-like tables, but hopefully this is something that will be added down the road.
Let us hide inline collection titles
I love Anytype, much more than Notion. However, this small issue is quite annoying. I know many have been asking to be able to hide inline collection / sets titles, I was hoping that with the new iOS & macOS update we would finally get it, is such a simple thing to do, yet instead we got a new spaces sidebar.
Another thing I find annoying is that I can’t choose which space I want the app to open to, it defaults to my entry space, which is not my main space. I don’t have this issue on Mac, the app will open to which ever space I was using the last time before I quit the app. Again, I still love the app, and really appreciate that is free :)
