About

Swift Notion

Features

# What is SwiftNotion? SwiftNotion is an app that allows you to easily send notes to your Notion databases from your iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch! It supports not only text notes, but also sharing web pages, quick access from home screen widgets, easy input from Apple Watch, and even Siri voice commands. This app has a simple function of only posting to the Notion Database, so it does not refer to your Notion data, and your data is protected. Please use it with confidence. # Important Notes - Only databases with a text property named "Title" are supported. The note content is recorded in this text property, so an error will occur if it doesn't exist. - Having a URL property named "URL" is convenient when sharing websites. - Having a date property named "Created time" (which I believe is the default for Databases) is convenient for recording the date and time of the note. - It's okay to have other properties. This app won't reference them, but it won't interfere with them either.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Thangs at Free against Swift Notion's $29.99. Thangs also leads on iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.5). Swift Notion's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs weekly). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
