Inkdrop - Markdown Notes

I’ve been searching for a versatile note app that supports markdown for version control and daily job organization, and Inkdrop is a great fit! I mainly create and edit my notes on a computer and check the notes on the phone. Inkdrop has a friendly UI and layout minimalist aesthetics with abundant plugins plus great maintenance (the vim keybinding is a gem!). It is such an enjoyment every time I open Inkdrop. This app/software has undoubtedly improved my work. Congrats on the great work, and please keep the ball rolling!

Inkdrop could be a contender for one of the better laid out pure Markdown editors. There’s just a couple of issues that are plaguing the iOS and iPadOS experience: For starters, the back button doesn’t work. The back gesture does, but the button itself does not. This was a pretty weird thing to have happen on my first experience with the app. In general, I feel like the app here could benefit from reducing some of the visual noise. There is a lot going on on. Here are some oddities I’ll note: - preferences being locked behind that drop down arrow is odd. Compared to every other app, this is the first I’ve seen do this - 3 omnipresent buttons on the editing page. -the info button on the editing page are all things that could be consolidated to a more tidily laid out page. -having to type font name is VERY weird. I don’t even know what fonts are available on iOS. It feels as though this was a desktop app that was ported 1:1 to mobile/tablet, rather than mobile first. I think the editing experience is first class, it just needs a little love.

It is really wonderful to have an app that has a native implementation across multiples OSes and devices. I can move freely from iOS to either of my macOS apps and be assured that all of my notes are in sync. Knowing that my notes are encrypted while in the cloud gives me a sense of security. In the modern Apple OS ecosystem it is nice to have an app that gives you the control over your content. You can download all of your documents as simple markdown files. There are definitely some spots in the app that could benefit from a little polish - but overall this app works well and suits my needs.
