I'm using it both the Mac app and Android app... they are great but sometimes it syncs the wrong data between the two devices. For ex if I delete 3rd bullet from Mac app, when I open to see that change on my Android app it deletes the second line (which is wrong). Sometimes it syncs correctly but when it deletes important stuff, its not worth it... I'll never use this app again

Still the best note-taking/database app and I prefer it over Notion and definitely Evernote. I had one issue where a Video would not sync properly but I'm wondering if it's because both videos were named the same. That could be the only possibility. Other than that I have not had any file/data loss or other syncing issues. It's just so easy to use compared to other apps

Amazing! So flexible yet simple, clean and easy to use!!! I am fascinated - it's just what I needed for writing down thoughts, ideas, tasks, all kinds of lists and notes. It's super cool to be used as a bullet journal as well. It has options to add tags and links, it has a calendar, you can move your units easily to another lists or sublists... Fantastic!
