Ratings and reviews

Cool idea, not well executed yet. I feel like they are in their infancy and perhaps will be a better contender down the line. For now, they advertise it being local, but in actuality if you want access from your phone you gotta use their hosting. Self hosting is poorly documented and is not possible to setup like common application installs. I went back to Notion, which this app basically is, but Anytype has a bit more intuitive interface.

This. Is. Brilliant. For almost 2 decades I have been trying to sync OneNote or other notes, Joplin or Synology notes and they all... didn't. Sometimes maybe. Slowly definitely. I just stumbled on this in Linux, scanned the QR code to login and my phone had all my desktop content in a blink. So well done! And the breadth of what it can do is wild. My new favorite app.

not very helpful that when I connect to my desktop, none of the settings are transferred over for my collections and things like that, which is stressful and adds unnecessary time to creating notes. This appears to be a common theme, where things could be done WAY more efficiently from a user's POV. I like the UI on desktop (wish the app was similar) I see tons of potential for this app for both the android and desktop versions once efficiency, parity, and consistency are taken into account.
