Ask HN: What is a good note app, unlike Evernote?
What is a good note app for Android?
unlike Evernote which is spammy and buggy and painful to use.
- scotthsutw1 4y agoNotion hands-down best note app https://www.notion.so/ https://www.notion.so/
- pqs 4y agoSpammy? I haver been using Evernote for many years and it doesn't spam me.
- ohiovr 4y agoIndex cards are pretty good. They are thin enough to fit in my wallet which keeps my memory available long enough to use it.

- briefbote 4y agohttps://obsidian.md/ https://obsidian.md/ - it is a note taking app and can be so much more. It is my daily notes driver, my knowledge base, keeping track with tasks

- halfdaft 4y agoSince the free app is fully featured, I see the $8 as the paid version, as opposed to just for sync. But I think they're doing themselves a disservice listing it like this. I use Syncthing to sync my obsidian note 'vault', and by having my Mac's Syncthing directory in iCloud, it also syncs notes to my iPhone. This gives you a free◊, cross-platform markdown notes solution. Oh and since Syncthing has a Synology NAS package, I also sync my notes to a NAS. ◊ I just donated to Syncthing for the first time. It's fantastic
- anshumankmr 4y agoI use OneNote, but that is under the Office365 suite of products (which is quite costly)
- 88840-8855 4y agoTried them all. It is critical to me that the app is subscription-free, runs on mobile, desktop and web. I ended up using the native iOS/macOS notes app. Many features are lacking, I can only sync via iCloud, but the app syncs very well, has a decent UI and can handle attachments very well.
- orphen 4y agoI realize the OP asked for an Android app, but I'm posting this in the hope it will meet some other reader's requirements: On macOS, I've used Microsoft OneNote and the defunct Circus Ponies NoteBook. But this has been my daily driver for many years: Growly Notes: https://growlybird.com/notes/ https://growlybird.com/notes/ Years ago Growly Notes was a paid app (and I paid!), but these days it is an absolutely free download, and the developer support has been awesome. My only regret is that it is desktop macOS only.
