It also starts up quickly, since it's built in native apps and not some third-party platform like Evernote uses that makes it work more like a web app. It also looks loverly - the developers have obviously put a lot of care and attention into the app. It is highly capable, syncs nicely and has a solid preferences menu. The developers have also added a bunch of nonsense that NO ONE was requested, such as a task function and calendars.Ĭraft is the closest I've found to a solid app that could replace Evernote. For the past 8 months, Evernote has been troublesome, including syncing problems, spinning disk issues when opening the app, disappearing files and other issues. I'm a long-time user of Evernote who's constantly searching for a less problematic writing app. The developer has said that these functionalities are coming and based on the current rate of development, I don’t think they’re going to be far off. That’s less of an issue for me because I am using this as a writing app vs a note app like Notes or Evernote. I mentioned the lack of being able to add screenshots using the share tray.
As I get more familiar with the app, I’ve found that the “linking/backlinking” capabilities can be used to create a “sort of” tagging system. I’ve just been spoiled by all the apps out there that have the big, colorful Add button like Things and Evernote. First of all I misstated when I said there was no quick add capability because there is a button for a quick add in the app. I paid for one year to support development. It doesn’t have a quick entry capability, it doesn’t accept screenshots from the share tray and it doesn’t have tags. Three things missing from this app that keeps it from being my primary note taker (and worthy of the subscription cost IMO). This is a great app and I use it for formatting and sharing documents. For aging eyes looking at a laptop screen on a lap, for example, a way to make the font size larger and easier to see would be so appreciated!! I can increase font size on the web app using this shortcut, but the web app still lacks many of the app features.
#Craft vs noteplan plus#
The control plus option that I usually use to do this currently functions to transform the text into larger bold headings, rather than to simply make the text larger so that it is easier to see. My only request is for a way to make the app text font size larger and easier to see. It helps me think, plan and write, which is your mission.but it really DOES help me do all of that! This fits the way I think/operate, and my most productive workflow so well, as it has become a place where I can keep a daily log of journal reflections, tasks, phone calls, meetings, etc, while also giving me easily accessible and connectable spaces to dive in and focus on projects, brainstorm, keep and plan long-term someday tasks and keep everything organized.
Took me awhile to grab onto Craft despite all of the buzz, and now it has become my essential app, especially with the recent calendar and daily note integration.
