After Five Years of Testing Various Note taking Apps: This Beats Everything!

After trying multiple native note taking apps such as: Apple Notes, Keep Notes and Samsung Notes, I was frustrated by the cross device problems, and eventually began a five year search testing multiple different apps I could use on multiple devices such as: Evernote, Onenote, Notion and Obsidian, Pencake and MyScript Notes. But I couldn't get used to the interfaces of Onenote and Evernote, and though i loved the referencing system in Obsidian, I disliked the fact that I had to pay a subscription for syncing. So for the past few years I ended up using Notion for most of my work, but it felt limited. I did not know how to properly sort information and my notes were scattered in a big mess. I also got increasingly frustrated with the need for online connection to access my notes and the knowledge that if I ever wanted to improve anything it would need a subscription. I also started a habit of journaling, but got my entires spread across multiple apps. After testing a few products at Appsumo I was intrigued by the promising features and interface of Journal.it, and now after having tried it for a couple of weeks, this beats everything! Everything is sorted into categories fit to my liking, and after some getting used to, I now know exactly how to organise my notes and constructively build on my learning.

Journal.it solves all the problems and limitations I have ever come across in a note-app:
- Scattered notes: Fully organized and seen in context.
- Cross-device availability: Available on all devices.
- Cross device sync: Instantaneous.
- Note transfer: Super easy. (Got all my notes from Day One in a matter of minutes).

This is by far one of my favourite app of the year. I am incredibly grateful for the amount of planning, thought and effort the developer has put into this. This App is amazing and I really look forward to keep exploring the features!
