It really is great, I've been using it for years -- and all my notes are stored as plain-text (markdown) files. Only downside is images really. If you want to try it, check out this more-recently-updated fork. The creator of the fork is apparently working on a replacement that I'm rather looking forward to trying. http://brettterpstra.com/projects/nvalt/ http://brettterpstra.com/projects/nvalt/

Any recommendation for a companion iOS app to sync with NValt?

  nvNotes[1] was great, but the latest version removed Dropbox syncing (because the developer was using an older API that is being deprecated) and now it's... no so useful. Combined with nvALT[2] on the Mac, this used to be a great combo.

  1Writer[1] is the best I've tried, assuming you're using Dropbox for sync. [1]: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/1writer-note-taking-writing-app/id680469088?mt=8 https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/1writer-note-taking-writing-...

    And Brett Terpstra -- the programmer of nvAlt -- uses 1Writer as well. He reviewed 1Writer in 2015 and continues to recommend it. http://brettterpstra.com/2015/01/28/my-pick-for-best-ios-nvalt-companion/ http://brettterpstra.com/2015/01/28/my-pick-for-best-ios-nva...

  nvAlt integrates with Simplenote for syncing. More here: https://computers.tutsplus.com/tutorials/superpower-your-note-taking-skills-with-nvalt-and-simplenote--cms-20816 https://computers.tutsplus.com/tutorials/superpower-your-not...

Thanks for this. I've been using Notational Velocity for years and often occasionally looked for an update but found none. What's the replacement you mentioned? I didn't see any info on the linked site.

  Apparently it's going to be called bitwriter (see the bottom of this post http://brettterpstra.com/2016/02/12/marked-2-dot-5-4-updates-fixes-and-improvements/ http://brettterpstra.com/2016/02/12/marked-2-dot-5-4-updates...) but there's not much information out there yet.

    It's been more than a year. Hopefully not abandoned.
