I recently moved to a Windows machine as my day-to-day home machine and thought I'd have to abandon Apple Notes (which I use on my phone and my work Macbook) but the web interface is basically identical to the apps.
- merpnderp 9y agoThat's great to know. I found how awesome Notes had become in Sierra, and now have hundreds of notes - this is an app I use every single day multiple times a day. But I don't like the new offering of MBP's and wanted to move off the mac ecosystem, so started work on something just as easy to use and as secure as Notes, coupled with sharing notes. It's just a mobile first web app hooked up to firebase with nothing making it to the server that hasn't been encrypted on the client first. Shared notes will require users to share a password, unless I find a better solution. But if iCloud Notes is just as good, maybe I'm wasting my time. I trust Apple's security, and Notes really is exactly what I want as a dev (their limited markup is nearly as useful as markdown, and I love that it is limited to a few choices).
- criddell 9y agoThe web interface actually lets you do one thing you can't on iOS - create nested folders.
- TheCowboy 9y agoI wish Apple would work more on icloud.com as a fully featured extension of their ecosystem. But they seem to be removing small features that are really useful, and I don't get the impression it has any priority. It used to be a nice way to manage mobile photos. Mass deletion was quicker and easier than on the phone, for example.
