No mention yet of the very well built iOS app beorg https://beorgapp.com/ https://beorgapp.com/ Org-mode files are synced via Dropbox, iCloud, or WebDAV. Having a Siri shortcut to just tell Siri to add something to my TODO list would be a nice feature. Glancing at the shortcuts API, there is an append to file feature. I might have to try to roll my own.

Beorg is awesome, I use it daily, but it's really "TODO" oriented, and not that great for editing documents. I've often wished there was an iOS text editor that understood org format, even just basic markdown style formatting. I'm going to give org-web a go, I think it could be a good compliment to beorg.

  There's inkdrop. The iOS app is pretty limited but it syncs with the desktop app and has an electron (I know, I know) app for Mac, Windows, and Linux. It's extendable with plugins. I've been using it for a couple of months and I love it.

  Yes. To be honest this is all I want.

I’m a big fan and current user, though I’d really like to use something FOSS. And, while iOS payments are a good prompt to support the author (I’m trying to get better at donating to Free Software developers), the in-app upsells for features are pretty annoying. That said, it’s one of the most used apps on my phone.

I think beorg is fantastic and I poked around with it for a while before building org-web. Ultimately I decided to build org-web anyway because I wanted something a bit closer to the metal, in a way. My impression of Beorg was that its bit higher level, whereas org-web provides some first class support for org features while still letting you edit the raw text if you'd like to. To be clear, I think both styles have their advantages. org-web's style isn't better, its better for me.

It is extremely naive to leave private files on public servers where one does not even know a person face to face.

If you have Reminders synced with Beorg, you can tell Siri to set a reminder and it should end up in the appropriate slot in Beorg.
