*scratch* vs Traverse outliner mobile

You're on the go. Someone's giving you directions, or a phone number, name of a restaurant... you need to write it down now, quickly! No time to create new contact, or a note, a file, or waste time on additional taps, bring up keyboard... You just need to write it somewhere right now. *scratch* is a simple scratch pad. • No bells or whistles, just a simple area to quickly jot something down. • Launch *scratch* and write. • Quickly create lists or checkboxes. • All plain text. • Share to other apps or save to Files as an org file (plain text). • No cloud, account, sign-in, or social required. Bonus: Emacs org mode lovers, you can use lightweight org markup like headings, plain lists, numbered lists, and checkboxes.

Open links directly from the outline. • Custom attributes Give your outline the structure your work needs with text, numbers, dates, URLs, checkboxes and reusable lookup values. • Draft status Mark an item or an entire branch as draft while keeping it in place. • OPML-based documents Create, open and edit portable OPML files directly through Files.
