Obligatory: Does it work with org-mode?

I also want a similar app for org-mode. Presently, I'm using a cron (every 2 mins) that sync my org folder with github. But it's not for the mobile.

Kind of. There is basic support because of another open source org mode app - Orgro (https://orgro.org https://orgro.org), - the author was even gracious enough to relicense his code away from GPL, so that I could use it. since GitJournal is shipped on the iOS store and GPL would not be compatible. However, GitJournal internally expects everything to be markdown + yaml. So anything else are hacks I've done on top. At some point, I want to refactor and remove this hard dependency on Markdown. Edit: I mistakenly thought the app was Orgzy. I've updated the comment. Sorry.

  I am curious: why shipping on iOS store makes it incompatible with GPL ? I mean I respect your decision to make it open-source or not, but why does the store matter ?

    GPL seems to be incompatible with the iOS store as that places some extra restrictions on it. [0] [1]. Some GPL apps such as KDE Connect have a special exception in their license for the ios App Store.

  Hi. That author was me, but my app is Orgro (https://orgro.org https://orgro.org), not Orgzly. The relevant libraries are https://github.com/amake/org_flutter https://github.com/amake/org_flutter and https://github.com/amake/org_parser https://github.com/amake/org_parser.
