Oh, wow, yes, Quiver appears to have disappeared from the Mac App Store as well!

#Bear vs macjournal install

But when I tried to install the update the App Store said the app had been removed. I cancelled Outlinely also, because I wasn’t using it as much as I formerly did.īTW, today the App Store notified me that there was an update for Quiver (the first update in years, I believe). I like Notebooks a lot-always have-and it’s good to see 2.0 is on the horizon. If Files were more robust and didn’t seem like yet another Apple afterthought, then I might pare down even more.

I already sync docs with DEVONthink and didn’t need two document managers. I recently cancelled my Keep It subscription and removed it from my iOS devices since I just wasn’t using the sync feature. Thank you for your thoughtful post, Bill.

Notebooks 2.0 for Mac should be out before the end of the year! Whoopee!!! Oh, and having said that development work on Notebooks appeared to be stagnating, I’ve just found the following post on Alfon’s blog: But before I do that, I might harass him on the current status of the app(s), since development has stagnated for a while now. Of course I could simply scrap everything in sight and stick with Alfons Schmid’s golden oldie Notebooks, which did all the things lots of other, more recent apps do years before anybody else. Yes, it’s a subscription app, but it’s very cheap and works very well. One of my new favourites is UpNote (for reasons discussed elsewhere).

Outlinely is still, I think, unique, despite impending competition from Workflowy, DynaList et al. On the other hand, I can do something very similar to Bear using Simplenote (although I do love Bear’s interface!). They’re modest subscriptions for very competent cross-platform apps. Of course it doesn’t have an iOS app (yet).įavourites I will continue to subscribe will probably include Bear and Outlinely. Also, I’ve recently discovered Zettlr, which is pretty darn cool (and free!). With options such as MWeb around, and in view of iaWriter’s sudden revitalisation, I’m really not convinced that Ulysses offers as much value-added as it could/arguably should. I’m even questioning Ulysses, which I’ve been using for a long time (so transferring the data will be a laugh a minute - but hey, Markdown!). I need to find some more effective way to manage what is now a very large Curiota collection of PDFs (web pages, references, downloaded docs etc.). And actually, it’s time I took another look at DEVONthink for iOS, too. At a pinch, Scrivener could also be used as an alternative, although it’s not optimised for info management in quite the same way. Notebooks (although the desktop version hasn’t been updated for quite a long time) is a valid alternative, I feel. I’ve had just a few too many issues with synchronisation of what is admittedly a very large corpus of documents over the last couple of years, and as a result have found I trust the two apps less and less. Most recent in my “cancel subscription” list is, alas, KeepIt (and KeepIt Mobile).

.Ah, as the festive season lights up ahead I find myself confronting - once again - my long list of subscriptions on the App Store and Mac App Store.Īctually, it’s a list that’s rapidly getting shorter, as I ruthlessly evaluate how often I actually use apps which, as a CRIMPer, I would prefer to keep, but in practice barely ever touch.Īlso, the (re)discovery of MacJournal’s comprehensive range of features has caused me to question quite a few of my go-to subscriber apps.
