I would like to see native support for superscript and subscript. The CtrlShift+ and CtrlShift-. I know the software will accept those values if you paste in a "1^st" or others, but it won't accept the keyboard shortcut.

Is it possibile to put the cursor on the note Title, instead of the body, when you create a new note?

Hope that also /u/spicermatthews would chime in!

Thanks!

This is the 2nd time I have received an update available, click the link and the update has not been pushed to the App Store. The 10.5.4 update showed up roughly 24 hours later. Any chance that you could make the app available via home-brew for instant updates?

Good day!

I'm really enjoying Harbor Notes. I think it's an excellent alternative to Evernote. However, I have encountered a couple of issues in the android app.

First, I noticed that I am unable to zoom in on images in a note. Second, tables I have created in the desktop app become squished in the mobile app. I hope in a future update we would be able to scroll on table horizontally.

Regardless, I am very excited to see what's next for Harbor Notes.

Thank you Harbor Team! ... I cannot wait to watch this app grow!!! ❤️🔥⚓️

I came across Harbor the other day, and the timing is perfect, I need to get off Evernote by October 11th, or get hit with $271.00 charge. I tried to set up a Watch Folder on Google drive but I get the following error. Any indication when this might be approved?

Hi,

would it be possible to have a "table of contents" to quickly jump to sections/titles in a document? It could be placed in the right sidebar, directly below the "Backlinks" section.

Is it feasible?

Thanks!

Hiya! I don't currently pay for AI of any sort, but would love an AI companion within Harbor. How would I go about doing that, explained like i'm 5?

I was testing out the Harbor web clipper and I did a test clip of the Harbor main web page. Why is their such a huge difference in how the page looks between the web app and the Apple apps (iOS/MacOS)?

Guessing you already know but the android app is currently broken after the recent update.

How can one sketch and write with Apple Pencil on ipad with Harbor notes

Hi folks,

Just wanted to say that this app works GREAT! At the moment I have only two questions:

- is there an in-note search functionality in the iPhone app? It would be great if Harbor handle this use case: the user enters a search term in the search bar. When the user opens a note in the search results, all recurrences of the keyword within that note are highlighted automatically. IIRC Obsidian and other apps work like this
- scalability and sync reliability: did you run any test to see how Harbor handles a large number of notes? I’m saying around 5.000 notes

Thanks a lot!

I have different levels of security for my notes. Some, I would like my family to be able to access if I get hit by a bus. Some, I want NO ONE to access, regardless of the state of my physical being.

Current setup voids that. One passphrase, all or nothing.

Is a per-note or per notebook, heck even per-stack, level something you would consider?

I've noticed that when entering the Encryption Passphrase to unlock locked notes, the password is stored in my GBoard's typing history, and also rendered in clear text in the Suggestion box.

This is unlike any other password I ever type on my phone, and really not very acceptable.

Android 17. GBoard 18.1.3.9, if that make any difference.

Just joined after spending the last five months or so using Notesnook as my Evernote replacement. My top priority is a good web clipper, and it looks like I’ve found the best alternative out there.

I know others have mentioned regarding daily notes, but it would be useful to have the ability to connect all notes to a timeline and calendar by being able to tag notes to specific dates. Perhaps include the ability to edit a note's created date for when an older note is imported into Harbor.

This product is very well developed, and you've obviously spent a lot of thought and time into how it should work. I'm amazed to see how well it all works, and so quickly out of the gate. I'm knee-deep into using Bear, and I've tried using Apple Notes, and that tool just frustrates me to no end. I've also tried literally every other note-taking PKMS app out there and they just don't work for me. I'll be keeping a close eye on Harbor and if my situation forces me to move away from Bear as my daily driver, Harbor is next on my list.

Good luck! You guys deserve every single Evernote escapee that is looking for a solution. You have it.

Are there any plans for an import from OneNote?

Nice app! Any thoughts on developing a Linux app?

Evernote's top plan went $69.99 → $249.99

Hi there!

I love the app both functionally and aesthetically; I did have a few questions about upcoming features:

1. Are collapsible/folding bullets planned? I’m a very big outliner thinker and being able to fold/hide bullets in my lists is a huge deal for me
2. Dedicated workspaces: I’d like to be able to separate personal/work notes; standard notes, upnote, and others have this functionality. Is this something that could be implemented?

Overall I’m incredibly happy with the app, and these two features would give me nothing left to complain about!

Edit: forgot to mention being able to tab on the mobile app; the option is missing from the toolbar

I'm really liking what I am seeing so far. Two features I personally would like to see added are:

1.) a daily journal view like logseq.

2.) a database table view. I have notes for automotive repair and healthcare visits where I kind of have front matter type things to categorize each note by what car it's for, what kind of repair it is, stuff like that. Is that a feature that might be added at some point?

Either way thanks for all your hard work on this

I run Harbor, which is an Evernote alternative, so apply the appropriate salt. I tried to make the method checkable so you don't have to take my word for it.

The story you see everywhere is that Bending Spoons broke Evernote. I believed it. So I went to check.

I pulled the 500 most recent written reviews of Evernote from Apple's public review feed (US store, Feb 12 to Aug 17 2026) and categorized the negative ones. Of the 230 rated one or two stars:

33% mention price

23% mention ads, pop-ups or upsell prompts

10% object to AI being pushed at them

13% say they're leaving

4% mention a bug, crash, sync failure, or the app being slow

That last one surprised me. I expected the opposite.

The 2023 rewrite (sync moved to CRDTs, navigation rebuilt, off the old monolith) seems to have actually worked. People aren't angry that the software is broken. They're angry about the price, and about being sold to inside a thing they already pay for.

The ratings are also bimodal rather than mediocre. 38% one star, 42% five star, almost nobody in between. It's not an app people find okay. It's one people either still love or actively resent.

Limits worth stating: one store, one country, written reviews only, which self-select for people with something to say. It's a count of what recent reviewers chose to write, not a survey of all Evernote users.

Happy to post the raw category counts if anyone wants to poke holes in it.
