Interesting idea but no export feature

Great to see more Zettelkasten focused apps being developed, but the primary objective of the methodology is zero lock-in with future proofing against apps that might go out of business in the future. Exporting is a required feature for a note app to gain any traction in the Zettelkasten and PKM arena. Interested to see how this app develops over time.

Love this for my Zettlekastan!

I will give it five stars when the syncing across devices (iphone, ipad, and Mac) is quicker and consistant. Great app, lots of wonderful features.

Am very excited to see how this app develops

Happy to have stumbled upon Monologue as I was searching for a Zettlekasten app that would sync to my iPhone, iPad, and MacBook. I love how Monolog also has a built-in daily review of my notes, which is so useful for remembering what you are collecting. Finally, the web page download to your notes function is soooo handy! It’s early days for this app but I hope the developer continues to polish and enhance it.

The App has potential.

The UI is great, and the concept of having "mentioned" and "mentions" is nice. But as of now, there are a few issues with the app:
- Text formatting is not easy. We also need markdown capabilities to better express ourselves with elements of text.
- This is the major issue - the app crashes very consistently. It's easy to replicate this - click on the sidebar elements, one after another, and you have a crash. This is a deal breaker, so please fix this.

Thank you for your feedback! - There are indeed plans to support Markdown in the next major version, probably by the end of the year. - What version are you currently using? It's fixed in v1.2.0. If the problem persists please email me at shu.wang@me.com for further info.

Cannot Export Notes

A promising app that I was going to use instead of Quine for unstructured hashtags. I paid for the PRO in-app update for iCloud support. I was hoping to be able to see a folder on iCloud so I would be able to export or copy my notes over time. This is not possible.

Please add the ability to export the database so the data can be used with other apps. Until this feature is added, I will not use it and therefore I must rate it 1 star.
