[@DanMills7]

I was quite surprised that Craft didn't make your list. I would have ranked it in the top 5.

[@FernandaLima-qc1qv]

Yeaaahhh

[@thephotocollective6095]

I was surprised as well. It’s better than Evernote at least 😂 with the way things are going with them.

[@FilipBodlak1990]

Wanted to mention this too. Craft is extremely capable. I switched from evernote to it. Just a bit more tricky to set up.

[@Trimalchio12]

It’s interesting that Craft costs about the same as Evernote Personal ($8 vs $10 a month on an annual plan) and also has an almost useless Free plan, but it doesn’t get the same Price Bashing.

[@carlosrebolledoaguirre4682]

Craft es una linda aplicación, pero se centra en la estética y sus funcionalidades son limitadas. No tiene etiquetas y el anidado está a años luz de Obsidian y Workflowy

[@DannyHatcherTech]

Obsidian all the way for me!

[@lowkeyproducktvt2101]

goddam you are fast

[@DannyHatcherTech]

@@lowkeyproducktvt2101 I watch at x2 and skip through bits that are obvious 😁

[@joesweeney6262]

Agree. Long time user of these solutions, and obsidian pretty much does everything I ever wanted and more. Add the smart chat plugin for full AI vector database search over your notes, so you can type in things like "who is Ken Cavandar's daughter and you'll get an answer in simple language and links. Brilliant.

[@kenibarwick]

Liked this; can you do one for handwriting recognition, especially with EInk tablets

[@poji23]

Have tried 5 of them on this list: Started with Notion, then it got too chunky and I spent way too much time trying to structure. Went to Workflowy in 2019, but it lacked a lot of features back then, couldn't support paragraphs so the outlines can get overwhelming without proper line spacing. I think a lot has changed since. Went back to Notion again for the lack of a proper replacement for me Tried Supernotes next. Good but has some friction with my workflow with the tasks feature Tried Capacities And gave up TWICE because of the complexity and learning curve,. But on the 3rd try, I gutted through, bought the Pro plan and the difference is immense. A daily user now.

[@carlosrebolledoaguirre4682]

Vuelve a Workflowy que desde el 2021 a la fecha han lanzado funciones geniales sin perder la simplicidad. Entre ellas párrafos

[@LonelyStandard]

Surprised that Noteplan didn't get a mention here. To me, it seems like a Reflect that's further along.

[@DarrenTech]

Damn…. You mentioned dinosaurs like Evernote and OneNote but Craft gets a snub. No way

[@socialwill]

What about Apple Notes? It has grown in features and so many people just use this for the built in, easy to use, notes. Plus on MacOS you and bring up a quick note just by placing the mouse in the lower right corner of the desktop

[@jawjuh1005]

Currently use Apple Notes. I love what EverNote is doing but lack of security holds me back from them. With Apple Notes I turn on Advanced Data Protection and everything is end to end encrypted. If Evernote would step up their security I would look at them again because the app itself is amazing now.

[@jeffeisley]

what's up with Notion's logo?

[@JustinBeausoleil]

Tried most of these. Capacities is definitely in the Goldilocks zone for me. Would just like them to add the calendar integration like Reflect.

[@kaelxeth]

What is the app in the thumbnail? Do you mind to share?

[@tolu619]

Hello brother. I just stumbled on your video and I'd like to give some constructive criticism if you will have it. I think you went over each application too quickly and did not go into enough detail to let people know which app suits their needs the best. For example, when talking about Bear Note, you did not mention that it is only available on Apple platforms. And when talking about Obsidian and some other apps, you mentioned PKM and assumed that your audience already knows what PKM is. As someone who has researched a lot of these apps and has already chosen one for my personal use, I want to help other people research and choose the best one for them. I wanted to give them a link to a useful KZbin video that is up to date in 2024 which will just show them the best note taking apps. However, after watching your video I find that I cannot share it with the people that I am guiding because it does not provide enough information. I know how much time and effort goes into researching, shooting and editing a video and I am not trying to demean your work. I just hope you can see clearly what I'm saying.

[@boyan-ny5xj]

Hi man，it is so easy to conclude that "this video rank is not helping people choosing the right Notes apps"

[@MHajyounes]

I am surprised that Avidnote did not make it on the list!

[@voitech_]

After 5 year adventure with PKM and note-taking, I recommend 3 apps: Obsidian, Bear, Apple Notes!

[@mr_red13]

What’s the best one?

[@artofdao]

obsidian is so much work to set up and play around to get it working. bear is so simple, perfect for notes but not for pkm. apple notes is good but you can't find anything any more visually. no views.just the search. if you have many notes you can't find anything any more.

[@carlosrebolledoaguirre4682]

@@mr_red13 Prueba Workflowy. Desde hace 3 años estoy utilizándola y no me cambiaría. Reflect es la más atractiva de las restantes, pero el sistema de nodos de Workflowy, espejos, simpleza, Kanban, fechas, reconocimiento de textos, atajos y otros es insuperable

[@UnikumMitsubishi]

iA Writer is my go too

[@LifeJournalApp]

If some of you are in search for something new, I'm launching a new note-taking app (it's free). The main distinctive feature of this app is that there are multiple ways of referecing the same concepts (so for example you can differentiate references that are about concept "X" from references that simply relates to concept "X"), which makes references intrinsically organized. I have a video that explains the whole paradigm. I hope I'm not intruding, just trying to get started !

[@syedumairali4345]

I love obsidian but I'm moving to notion

[@VikingDiariesTV]

Reflect seems to match how my brain works best.

[@JamesPakele]

Love Reflect, the app is beautiful, the interface is simple... Longer notes do slow the system though and I wish there was more capture options or integrations, like email forwarding... Also with there was an Android app with AI features to recall stuff from my phone...

[@r3gulat0r]

Evernote, but Capacities looks interesting

[@dr-apocalypto]

Would be nice to include which ones are free, and the price for the pay apps.

[@juergenheise28]

Capacities works best for me as my PKM and Life OS app

[@artofdao]

its very new is it ready yet ? I humble between he-table and capacities. I come from obsidian what makes capacities best for you ?

[@jeffeisley]

Workflowy the OG!

[@shreyasibasu622]

In love with Bear and its simplicity :)

[@DevonMeadows]

Reflect FTW

[@samuele.marcora]

What about Loop?

[@sergiorodrigues6694]

How about Google Keep? Is it too simple to enter this ranking?

[@L.I.T.H.I.U.M]

Twos is underrated.

[@adamashlock1787]

#anytype ??? Love that #upnote got some,well, love!

[@Thire33]

No mention of Joplin?

[@justinmcdaniel4799]

Tana and Craft should be #1 and #2…

[@oliverdahms5551]

I am surprised that Tana was not mentioned at all?!

[@octavian_2]

Where's anytype? Where's craft? Where's lattics?

[@dxart3]

Just one word: Anytype

[@Georgevideocliper]

Joplin?

[@elenapeter1564]

Tana?

[@blablablub5970]

isn't it still waitlist?

[@clangloop]

Evernote - because i use it since 2010 😊

[@rebeccaw9656]

Craft Docs

[@kenshin7440]

Where is logseq??!!!

[@bhanajczyk]

Only Craft 👍

[@e.m.a.g876]

Sorry but you missed the best one, Anytype !

[@jivarishi]

Joplin anyone?

[@da5is]

Loved the overview - would like to mention I found the swipe noises VERY distracting and unnecessary

[@GF-vp7bn]

No heptabase...? Well wtf

[@sunbhattacharjee]

Just use apple notes.

[@user-cf5cy8rb5y]

whaich one is free, android, windows, has free sync cloud and unlimited notes. ty

[@DavidROliver]

You have a bit of a choice! OneNote, Capacities and UpNote are worth checking out that meet your criteria.

[@ToriZealot]

which does all the work for you and delibvery free meals?

[@dinorexgx]

Notesnook.
