Dnote looks interesting. I don't quite get how it addresses searching and listing notes on the phone. I add "topic:...", "date:..." and "keyword:" lines in each file, grep through the files to list all topics or sort by topic and group notes by topic/keyword. I also keep the date I started the note in the filename itself. I just need a good way to search through them on my phone.

Adding lines such as "topic:..." sounds like a very useful and low key solution. I might start trying that. Thanks. You can use Dnote web app on the phone to do full text search and list notes by book. You can also install the website as a progressive web app for usability. On the downside, using this web interface subjects users to a third party system (albeit open source) and forces them to give up the autonomy that they enjoy by simply using plaintext files.
