▲ 95 ▼ Best lightweight note-taking app? (lemmy.world) submitted 3 years ago by punninglinguist@lemmy.world to c/android@lemmy.world 63 comments fedilink hide all child comments Looking for an app for note-taking with the following features: No ads ever No nudges to upgrade, subscribe, unlock premium features, or any bullshit like that. No recurring fee (ok paying up-front for the app) Clean, simple interface That's it. I don't need multimedia, multi-device syncing, cloud storage. I just need a place to write down ideas and grocery lists. Recommendations?

Plus, if you think you can get value out of the note linking feature, you can make some incredibly detailed knowledge bases. Really powerful tool when you need it to be, dead simple note-taking by default, it's a damn good app permalink fedilink source parent [–] Heliumb0y@infosec.pub 1 point 3 years ago This definitely, also cross platform.
