Hey,

Which app are your favorite note app on mac and iphone.

I prefer Ulysses or Day one.
 
Do mean for typing or writing with the Apple Pencil? Ulysses doesn't support a stylus last I checked.
 
I just started using Nebo (24 hrs ago) and it has become my new favorite Apple Pencil writing app. A lot more user friendly and powerful versus Apple Notes or Notability.

When regularly typing notes, I like Bear for its Markdown ability, not to mention all the bells and whistles.

Day One is good for journaling.

I also use Cheatsheet on my Apple Watch

For writing books, I use Ulysses and Pages.

I use several different note apps depending on what I am trying to accomplish.
 
FSNotes on Mac App Store for a smaller amount of currency 35 kr here in DK, which I imagine is less than 5 US dollars ?

Leafnote is on Mac App Store

Tot is also on Mac App Store

I think each have their own way of making notes as I see it.

I think of all three of them as note applications and editors, in their own right, should the need arise; markdown format or something of that nature.

Especially FSNotes is that(using Markdown) I've been using it on and off for editing Mousecape's Wiki while also using Hawkmark(which is an editor and not so much a note taking application)

There's also that GoodNotes 5 application on Mac App Store with an iOS counterpart too AFAIK

I've used Yojimbo for years. It does a LOT of things.
You can label notes with keywords, and easily search every note you have.
It keeps everything in an SQL database, so all your notes end up in the same place.
