This is the best note-taking app I've come across so far, and I've tried and used onenote, notion, keep, roam and evernote. Whether you want just a basic cross-platform notes app or something to really get your data sorted by installing tons of add-ons that can only be described as wizardry, this app has you covered. Super fast, your data is always yours, they don't do ads, and you can secure your data or choose to host it yourself if you really want to ramp up security.

Everything I hoped it would be. I've been waiting ages for this. Fantastic. Works really well. I expected a less functional version of the desktop app, but it's the same. Very impressive. On Android, it works out of the box with a link I have in my notes to edit the note, when clicked it opens the note in my vault, just as ir does on Desktop. Thoroughly recommend.

Brilliant app - I've found it works for pretty much everything I want to do on Desktop and the Mobile version is just as great, if not better since I can take it with me and work on notes on the go. I use the mobile version currently for daily notes, tracking my to-do lists for each day and capturing ideas or things I want to formulate further. It's easy to sync these with my Desktop vaults and turn them from half-fledged ideas into full ones. If you're looking for an intuitive note-taking app with extras this is the one I'd recommend. You can easily link between notes and build up what I've been calling a personal wikipedia. Since I got the app I've used it every single day for something, it's kept me on track with logging sleep & health information and also with blogging and studying.
