That’s one app I really wanted to try to use but they don’t yet have a trial or monthly subscription option for iOS (supposed to release one). I didn’t want to pay $50 for it just yet.
@nightscout Makes sense. Another one that works well is Writer btw. Basically any text editor that can read and write to external folders on iOS/iPadOS.
Although Ulysses introduces problematic characters for some reason, at least it did just before I left it for Obsidian.
Ah forgot about Writer. I never tried Ulysses with Obsidian either. I have considered iA Writer because the UI looks pretty nice but haven't taken the step yet of actually paying for it on iOS. I also love Noteplan3, but that app doesn't use the filename as the note name, so it's not interchangeable with Obsidian.
Yeah I did. The issue is that Obsidian uses the Filename for referencing documents while Noteplan uses the first line in the note. The dev has said he was going to try to work on a solution to allow NP users to pick which they wanted to use, but until that happens you can’t really use the two apps interchangeably without breaking all your back links.
@nightscout @laroquephoto At $50, the mobile version of iA Writer has become way overpriced, especially if you’re only going to use it on an iPhone. Imo 1Writer is pretty much equally good (I own both) and last I looked it only costs $5. Fwiw, you can also sign into Dropbox with it, which you can’t do with iA Writer.
Yeah, I agree. The developer said they were going to move to a subscription option for iOS, but that has not happened yet.
