Poker Notes 2 vs GrindLog

Have you ever had such a bad beat that you go on tilt and forget what the cards were. Poker Notes will let you capture that information, and adds some additional information in the form of odds so you can analyze the hand and share it with your friends. Poker Notes keeps your memories in the cloud so you can take them with you and allows you to share those hands with your social networks, including Facebook and Twitter. The first version of Poker Notes was released into the app store in 2008, when there were only 1000 apps. This is a complete re-write and re-imagination from the original author. Free for the first 10,000 downloaders.

GrindLog is a poker session notebook built for speed. Type hands the way you talk; the app understands common hand-history phrasing so you can stay in flow at the table or on break. Write less, remember more. One line can carry stakes, cards, and position. Add @mentions for villains and #tags for themes. Notes land in dated session folders so tonight’s hands don’t get lost in yesterday’s clutter. See the hand, not just the text. Open Analyze Hand for parsed spots, auto-tags, and per-hand range & combo notes. Step through the hand replayer when you want the table picture, not a wall of abbreviations. Turn notes into insight. Stats summarizes what you’ve actually logged: volume, stakes, seats, cash vs MTT snapshots, and spot filters to jump back into real examples. Study goals help you keep a steady review habit. Share and study out loud. Export hands in formats that work elsewhere. Use Ask about this hand when you want a clean draft to send for feedback. Built for how grinders work Multi-note tabs, quick shortcuts, hashtag and villain autocomplete, linked notes across villains and tags, and local-first storage so your database stays yours. Whether you play live or online, cash or MTT, GrindLog is for players who want one place to log, tag, replay, and review—without turning every hand into a chore.
