![]() ![]() Update 12:28 PM: Clarified that Justnote’s folder sync features only work on 10.7.3+. As a note, Justnotes’ folder syncing only works with OS X 10.7.3 or higher due to be compatible with Apple’s sandbox. If you’re interested, act now by downloading Justnotes through the Mac App Store. Justnotes is currently $5.99, but will go up to $9.99 after the introductory promotion is over. I think Simplenote users will find themselves right at home with the interface, as it provides nothing more and nothing less than what the online service itself provides. I like Justnotes’ style, and I certainly believe that it makes for a richer alternative to OS X’s basic writing utilities. Without Markdown support or previews, Mac centric writers familiar with the syntax won’t find much in Justnotes either. On the other hand, users looking for free Simplenote syncing would’nt find too many reasons to move away from Notational Velocity. Simplenote is much easier and simpler to use in terms of writing, because its plain text only with moderate formatting support by using Markdown syntax. Where Justnotes excels is at its ability to aggregate several working folders into one app that manages all of your text files. Archived notes simply stay in the background and can be accessed through the Archive tab, while the Notes tab shows all of your working documents. Sharing options are few: text can be exported as a PDF or to your mail client, but that’s it. Notes themselves can be archived off, and must be deleted a second time from the Archive to remove them permanently. While keyboard shortcuts are plentiful and explained in app, sort options are accessed through the gear button along with manual sync and a preferences menu item. Favorites and tags don’t apply to locally synced folders.Īs a text editor, Justnotes’ management options are minimal. When I read that Brett Terpstra (the architect of nvALT) will no longer support SimpleNote, I knew it was time to find an alternative. The creation and arrangment of the “lists” you sync are managed through the app’s preferences. Please report issues on GitHub, not on Twitter or via email. It has been developed by Elastic Threads (David Halter) and Brett Terpstra, and made available for free (donations accepted). Every folder or Simplenote account that Justnote syncs too is clustered together in the sidebar. nvALT 2 is a fork of the original Notational Velocity with some additional features and interface modifications, including MultiMarkdown functionality. However, compared to the best note-taking apps. This means that repositories of daily notes, work related diatribes, and reviews such as this one can be linked to distinct locations. The aptly named Simplenote is a completely free note-taking app developed by Automattic, the company best known for website platform. Put simply, you can write notes that link to multiple directories, whether they be online or offline, within Justnotes. So while you *can* use Justnotes strictly as a Simplenote client (which it’s great at), you add additional Simplenote accounts or choose folders on your Mac to write notes in. Where Justnotes makes its big differentiator from the aformentioned apps is that Justnotes can sync to several locations at the same time. ![]()
