I made this for myself since all the notes apps were overly complex and didn’t support the important things I wanted - e.g, treating URLs as first class citizens, custom reminders, or easy sharing.<p>I’ve heard from others that they have similar needs too, and complexity and overhead of note taking apps is one reason they don’t use them much.
Since many are asking:<p>- notes are saved in the cloud<p>- currently requires Google login (but that was only because I wanted to get something out the door quickly). I'm considering implementing other login providers and also device-only notes if there is enough interest. I know there are legitimate concerns around this topic: I'm not tied to the login mechanism per se.
Surprised Apple let you publish this with only the option to sign in with a google account and not let you use any functionality until you do. I would also prefer to not sync yet more stuff with Google. Otherwise, seems pretty handy, I'll check it out.
I'm using "Saved Messages" in Telegram and it does most of that stuff.<p>I store text, files, links, videos and I even use it to send this from my PC to my phone or vice versa.<p>I also have several channels with bots like grocery list, reminders, etc. And I can make my own bots that connect to almost any service I want. I started using Telegram as an alternative to Whatsapp and now I'm using it even as my own personal "Jarvis". I still haven't developed all the stuff I want to a fully functional personal manager but the possibilities are endless.<p>This app looks cool. Simple and straightforward, which is something I always look up to but in this scenario I think we (at least I) need something more, to be able to make it talk to other services.
Feels weird. I often send a message to myself using Facebook Messenger in order to take a quick note. I do this because I can easily access it on any device and I generally have the Messenger opened in the background.
I'm not sure if I want to have filtering and searching in a chat style note taking app. I don't care for organization of those quick, ad-hoc notes with short lifespan. If I want something persisted, I'll probably use a more dedicated, organized place.
I like the idea. Seems like a good way to outline blog posts and whatnot. A few requests: allow for images and other attachments, include a dark mode, and charge something so it's sustainable and worth maintaining and improving.
Solid idea, even better execution. Impressed you did apps on both major platforms<p>Only think it needs to replace me sending to slack or other note app is some way to get it on my computer. Maybe that’s an ifttt connector or something.
It just looks like WhatsApp – why not use that instead?<p>For those who miss the "Saved Messages" thing from Telegram: You make a group and kick out everybody. Then you are in a group – alone. Now stick it to the top of WA and voilá! There you have your simple notes :)<p>Great thing, since you can access it with your PC via web.whatsapp.com.
This is exactly what I have been looking for, few questions<p>- why does it need login?
- what does it do with my data?
- does the data live on phone or on your servers?
- is it possible to export all the data somewhere?
Dammit, I have been playing for two months with mockups and dirty quick PoC for something like that an now someone actually made it.<p>Congrats to the author, now off to check it out :).
Very cool! I have started to build something a little similar but this looks pretty polished! Do you have any API? I would love to pull some of the data out
