It has enough simplicity to just open the app and inmediatly write a note, without any distraction, but at the same time it's powerful enough (thanks to markdown) to write with detailed formating if you want. Until now i've always used apps that had one strength or the other, but this one checks both for me.
The good things don't stop there. With any public note you have a link to share with anyone, and a public profile that looks and feels like a blog. So without any extra effort, you also have a blog. This is great for me. I literally started moving things form Medium and deleting them there.
Plus: amazing UX, RSS, and an API. If you want to build a more complex blog, you can do it and feed it directly with your Collected Notes content. Did I mention how amazing this is? Cause it is.
I've been using this product for almost a week now. The simple, intuitive and fast UX of this app is remarkable. It really helps you write your ideas down and take notes at least twice a day! Very recommended.
Congrats for launching this app!
In addition to the other suggestions that have been made, I think it would be interesting to add a toolbar with common style buttons for users who are not so familiar with markdown (like simplemde js editor).
Cheers!
Very useful tool for producing content in a seamless, easy way, wherever you are and whenever you need it. Looking forward for the Android version :) Beautiful and ultra-intuitive UX. Some suggestions:
-For those using it as a publication platform, it would be great to have some kind of tagging feature (as categories)
-Markdown is great but not intuitive for everyone
-We'll be great to have a native button to share content for CN on social media
-A brief bio (no pic) would be valuable too. The shorter, the better
It's clean and easy to use, but also gives you a lot of tools to edit. I love the way I can see what I'm writing and how it will look at the same time.
Been following its development for a bit. It's simply beautiful in its design and of course easy to use. Will start migrating my content from Medium to Collected Notes soon..Love it.
