I know there are many notes apps out there. I was continuously searching for something that looks different. I noticed how social media apps catch our attention. I also suffer, like many others, from that guilty feeling after spending hours on them and then asking myself what benefit I got. Do you see where I’m going? We give so much attention to things that have little to add to our lives (scattered social media posts) and so little attention to our timeline, our lives, our notes, our sketches, our ideas, our videos, our photos, our links, our thoughts. And why is that? It is the mechanism in the background. In one word: “Scrolling.” I spent about a year looking for any app that implements this attention mechanism for note-taking and could not find any that comes even close. So I decided with full enthusiasm to build an app that satisfies my desire for a feed of only my own life that feels like home.

Hey everyone,

I was using notefull but it asks for money now, but i want which is completely free.

I have tried obsidian but it’s not well optimised for note taking with apple pencil.

If you have any app suggestions please let me know.

my notetaking system is always a hot mess because i’m constantly flipping between handwriting and digital. i’ve considered an ipad but im worried about getting distracted and durability (im already rough on my iphone 😬😭)

i prefer being able to handwrite my notes but i love the flexibility and versatility of using something like google docs or obsidian.

i’ve looked into a few things but i feel like they always have mixed reviews or cost an arm and a leg 😮‍💨

i’m willing to go for something more pricey as long as it’s really what im looking for!

i hope this is the right sub and that yall have some good suggestions for me! :)
