I’ve been using the notes app to write short thoughts, notes, poems, random ideas, etc and have found it really clunky for this. It has no simple way to edit formatting while typing or after, and a few other designs that seem to distract me. Wondering if anyone else had found this also, and maybe looked around for a better app?

    Obsidian has very rich support scripts and workflows documented for MacOS - I highly recommend it

      Seconding Notion. It’s infinitely configurable, which can be a bit of a learning curve. Once you get the hang of it though, there’s nothing I can find to replace it. Literally. I have tried.

      I actually went back to the default notes app, it’s gotten really good and I‘m getting tired of expensive subscriptions.

    It really depends what all you want to do with it. One of my favorites is craft. Their website is craft.do. They’re very feature rich, and offer almost as much versatility as notion, but unlike notion it lets you sync with your iCloud storage. If you can afford it therir premium plan is even better.

    I tried every app under the sun, I just need an app that can scan documents as well as Notes do; and that can do file versioning. I haven’t found anything like that yet.

    I’ve been through Evernote, Apple Notes, OneNote, and Notion.

    I highly recommend “UpNote” which is cross platform and has awesome sync. You can pay a small monthly fee or grab it for the lifetime fee which is incredibly affordable. I recently switched over for work and personal and I’m so glad I did.
