Hidden Gem!!

Very much appreciate the hard work put into this app.

Fits my needs perfectly, and it’s open source. I’m not rich, but I can honestly say that I’ve underpaid, and this app is worth much more.

The macOS app is beautiful as well.

Thanks again for the hard work put into this app!! (8<

The new nvALT

Works like a dream. Now I have nvALT back on my Mac. Solid, reliable, no lock-in as text files written to disk. Great markdown support. Five stars from me.

Feature requests

Would it be possible to add an option for the user to select the app accent color? As well as create our own syntax themes. They could be imported or created within the app

Hello, I cloned a git repo that I have used for vimwiki for years. When the repo was cloned into FSNotes, the app does not preserve the folder structure. So I have 1639 folders at the top level. However, if I go into the files app and see the files that the app is using, the folder structure is still there. Would it be possible to fix this? Thanks

very useful

Response from developer

Thank you very much, Shawn!

Super slow to load

Takes 5-10 sec to launch the app, every time. I suspect it’s from using iCloud to sync my notes. Painful.

Response from developer

1,000 notes in my test load in less than a second (iPhone 12 Pro Max).

暗号化についての記載が不誠実

説明文にAES256暗号化とあるが少なくともiCloud上では平文保存されてしまっている。暗号化パスワードを設定する意味がわからない。また、検索機能について、トップ画面での検索のときにエンターを押してしまうと新規ノートになってしまうのが慣れないと使いずらい。検索でキーワードがハイライトされるがキーワードまでジャンプしないのが不便。ノート内に複数の該当キーワードがある場合は前後にジャンプする機能がないと不便。ノート内の検索は現在開いているノートに限定して検索されたほうが便利だと思う。ただ開発者が明らかな不具合以外はアップデートしない方針のようで、今後の改善も期待できない。

Response from developer

AES-256 はすべてのノートに使われているわけではありません。暗号化したノートのみが対象で、個別に暗号化することも、フォルダ単位で暗号化することもできます。 ノート内検索は FSNotes 7 ですでに実装されています。 GitHub にアクセスできるのであれば、私がこのアップデートをリリースするために、過去 7 か月間ほぼ毎日作業していたことが分かるはずです。これは私の仕事に対する完全な侮辱です。今後二度と FSNotes のユーザーにならないことを願います。

Doesn't respect my device's font-size settings

I want to like this app, but I can't see the text well enough to get that far. Will be asking Apple for a refund.

Clean Open-Source App

The UI looks nice and the documents sync up to ICloud well though I wish there was an easier way to reach the bottom part of my notes.

不好用

为什么还不能评价?

Great App but it will not Sync

Love the App and the way that it works, but i just cannot get ot to sync with my Mac’s, each one has different notes and without the ability to sync it cannot be useful which is a real shame. Also support is via Github which i am unable to get access to.

Response from developer

In general, iCloud Drive synchronizes data, not the program. It's more productive to write to support, but since that's the case - bye.

Bin begeistert

Ich habe so einiges ausprobiert , aber jetzt bin ich fündig geworden . Den Preis für IOS und MACOS zahle ich gerne , weil alles reibungslos funktioniert .

Feature request

Could you please add Shortcut actions e.g. paste clipboard as a new note.

doesn’t save changes for existing notes

Notes were synced from the Mac, can create a new notes, but editing existing ones rolls back to the previous state. Also rolled back many of them to the state around two weeks before.
Tried to enable/disable git but doesn’t help. Existing notes rolls back after edit in 15-30 seconds or after reload app all time.

Response from developer

The program does not synchronize data, but only shows what you have on your drive or in the cloud. If you're seeing old notes or not saving new ones, it's worth looking into errors with iCloud Drive or disk permissions. I look forward to a detailed report from you on GitHub to help as soon as possible.

Schnell und Ausreichend

Ich habe FSNotes zuerst auf dem Mac verwendet, da es dort gratis und auch Open Source ist. Mittlerweile benutze ich FSNotes auf allen meinen Geräten. Vorher war ich bei Bear Notes und an FSNotes fehlt mich gar nichts.

强烈要求增加语音、视频保存

非常棒的笔记app,不过还是想提个wishlist:增加语音、视频格式。这样就能真正当个笔记wiki用了,或者干脆另外加个网盘保存这些大文件,另外收费也行。

对了,还希望增加ai助手:这样可以帮助查询、改写笔记。

无法点开链接文件

ios上的笔记中无法点击文件链接打开文件

Response from developer

已在 6.4.0 中实施,请更新。

Works well with FSNotes on Mac

Thank you for making an excellent successor to Notational Velocity, one of the all-time great apps. Please add an option to make the default folder Notes. Seeing “Inbox” in huge writing every time I open the app makes me think I’ve opened my emails. I would also like an option to turn off the bar of shortcuts above the keyboard.

iPhone版有收集箱列表,但是查看不了记录的文章内容

我在Mac上版本是OK的,但是在手机上,只显示了收集箱列表,文章列表不显示文章的标题,点击文章后也没有文章内容

Feature requests: app accent color

Would it be possible to add an option for the user to select the app accent color? As well as create our own syntax themes. They could be imported or created within the app

Also ich liebe die App echt mehr als Apple Note

aber ich vermisse sehr das Tabellen Feature in notes.
