Comments and Reviews

   
 Post comment/review
Comment summary: Users praise Inkdrop for its elegant design, cross-platform functionality, GitHub-flavored Markdown support, and seamless syncing across devices. It appeals especially to software developers due to its advanced search filters and privacy features, including encryption. However, concerns about the lack of a web version and end-to-end encryption exist, with some criticizing the application's server-side encryption practices. The pricing may be seen as high compared to free alternatives, but the app's continuous updates and supportive community are well-regarded.

Github-flavoured Markdown, status per note, end-to-end encryption, revision history, and over 100 plugins! This is amazing for an app costing only USD 4.99 a month.

I use it on my Mac and iPhone. It's a handy, multi-platform, light, and easy-to-use markdown app. Great UI and quick support.

Portable between multiple platforms. This is really the killer feature for me. I'm able to use this on my Windows laptop, Apple laptop and on my iPhone. I know that all of my notes will be synced seamlessly between each platform and that the UX will be consistent no matter what device I'm on. This was a step forward for me from something like iCloud Notes which locks me into a particular platform (macOS, iOS).

This is a great utility app - it stays out of the way and lets you create documents and organize them. Very easy to use and quite intuitive.

You also maintain ownership of the docs that you create. Should you choose you can export your entire collection and have them in Markdown format. The application doesn't prevent you from getting to your content and makes it easy to take ownership.

My only con here is the price. While I understand this is a competitive space, it sometimes feels hard to justify 5USD a month against tools like Notes which are free and let me do 60% of the same thing.
