Right on the money, Jeremy. I've had Craft in my apps folder for years, but only started exploring the features recently. I decided to begin transferring notes from my Evernote app to Craft because the notes there are so much more useful. (Not an easy task since Evernote restricts exports to a weird native format that few other apps can import.) I regrettably paid for the upgrade of Evernote in January, but that app has become so bloated with tasks, calendar and other features done so much better by Mac system apps for free. Evernote has seriously pushed the notes feature way down the bottom of its features and because it's so bloated, there are updates and fixes for mobile and desktop almost daily.

One of the beautiful features of Craft is you can convert a beautifully styled note into an email and the email looks just like the stylings in Craft.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts Jeremy. I totally agree that Craft really stands out for the writing experience. The beta web app for Android is impressive, and the overall aesthetics truly make a difference.

I've been using it for over 2 years and dropped everything else. I'm looking forward to the updates with tags, image resizing, and columns too. And maybe some additi in nal embeds. What I do love is that they don't bloat the app like some I could mention.

While other apps might excel in project management, when it comes to the sheer joy of writing, Craft is in a league of its own.

The app I use all the time is Notes - but I'm going to try Craft to see how it works. I like the idea of having a better look and feel, particularly in organizing the docs.

Craft feels like the โ€œiPhone of note appsโ€: everything looks great out of the box, yet it scales from grocery list to full project wiki without ever getting in your way. If I had to shrink my toolbox to a single icon, Craftโ€™s elegant pages, live-collaboration links and one-click PDF export would keep me productive.

One small workflow hack: when I drop iPhone HEIC screenshots into Craft for documentation, I first run them through https://heictopng.live/ to get universal, lossless PNGs with transparency intact. Itโ€™s browser-only, private, and freeโ€”perfectly aligned with Craftโ€™s own privacy stance.

I tried Craft after your previous recommendation but struggled to get going. I couldn't export the documents.
