Overall, I can match most all functionality of Onenote using GDrive, but it won't be as convenient and fast. Daunted by the need to work with PDF’s on the go iAnnotate boosts your productivity.

iAnnotate is a free software available for Android. It enables you to collect data-rich text, images, PDFs, movies, audio clips-and arrange them on the page any way you like.

Can't find a way to annotate a pdf file on my iPad without exporting it (too slow). Growly Notes is a 4.99 versatile Note-taking App for Mac. You can screenshot or save as html or print to pdf. Same thing on Linux - I can't just search from the desktop, I have to open GDrive in Chromium and search from there. On the iPad, I have to open GD application to find text inside GD files. if I have a note "Electrician Dan 444-3333" somewhere inside Onenote page, I can run a search for "electrician" on the desktop or in Spotlight, and it would show me that Onenote file. Onenote results show up in Windows Cortana search in W10, or Spotlight search in iOS.

I also couldn't figure out how to quickly link my GDocs note to a file in a folder on the iPad. With GD, I have to use Google Docs which I personally find slow and feature limited. Onenote makes it easy to take notes or annotate pictures and pdfs. Would need separate files in GD for that. I can have a pdf file, excel spreadsheet, and hand sketch all together. Onenote is the greatest in how it allows combining all different kinds of information and notes on one page. I have 8GB from past promotions.Ī big advantage of a file-folder based setup is that it can be quickly and easily moved to another cloud solutuion. For some people, the default 2 GB it offers isn't going to be enough.

The reason I don't just use DP directly is that it's blocked at work, + it doesn't do OCR search inside files unless you buy an expensive PRO subscription. An added advantage is that now the data is backed up to another cloud. I went around this by using CloudHQ to sync GD to Dropbox (which does have a Linux client). Getting GD to sync to a Linux system is not an easy task.

The encryption and password protection of sensitive data can be handled by Cryptomator - a free and (I think) open source cross-platform tool. It has a built-in OCR for PDFs and images, and the file folder structure can replace the notebook-section-page. One alternative would be to put everything in Google Drive. The one that works for Windows, Linux, iOS, Android. So, I've been looking at a truly cross-platform solution. I'll play around with it, because at least it seems lighter weight, and it doesn't allow the silly 'infinite', place-anywhere, pages that OneNote has. However, it's just like Evernote in that it's based around a note 'unit'. However, lately I've been contemplating moving my desktop to Linux Mint, and ON doesn't work there. Like Evernote with even more UI goodness. I love Onenote - it's the best at what it does - and it's also almost cross-platform. It must sync between iPhone and Mac (I don't care about a web interface), and I would prefer to have control over where the data is stored (yes, I do trust Apple more than MS for privacy -although I would prefer my own server).Īnyways, I'm just curious if there are any alternatives I haven't heard of. I've tried, among others: Evernote, Notes.app (Apple), Curio, CircusPonies (defunct), Growly Notes, and SimpleNote. The closest I've found is Notebooks.app (by Alfons), but the presentation still leaves much to be desired. And I'm not looking for a dumping ground, I'm want something more resembling a journal or lab notebook.


Sorry, but I don't want to -search- for notes, notebooks make sense for a reason: the brain remembers things spatially quite well. Most "note" alternatives out there follow the completely useless Evernote model, where notes just pile up on top of each other, with little structure other than folders (and tags).

All contributions are most humbly welcome - they enable us to continue working on free Macintosh apps instead of going out and getting a real job.I'm a Mac/iPhone OneNote user, and although I enjoy most of the features, I enjoy neither the bloat nor the fact that I have to use MS's servers for sync.

Since our debut at the end of 2010 with only 8 apps, we’ve released many new products: Our demented developer works every day to enhance and maintain our apps, and to develop new ones. Now comes the happy ending: we’ve shrugged off the restrictions that the App Store imposed on Notes and gone back to our original plan. Then we put Growly Notes on the App Store and it was our only paid app. Once upon a time all of our apps were free.
