ThreadNote vs Kanso

ThreadNote is a simple text note application that stands out for its two unique features. Firstly, it eschews the traditional title list format; instead, all content, both titles and body text, is displayed in a list format (with a limit on the number of display lines). Secondly, it allows for the creation of child notes, enabling users to organize notes into a branching hierarchy of parent-child relationships. Users can navigate between parent and child notes with left and right swipes, and can use pinch in to fold notes down to just the title and the first few lines of text (configurable from 0 to 10 lines), with a pinch out gesture to unfold. This folding action can also be performed by tapping a button on the note. Features: - Notes with titles, body text, tags, creation and modification dates - Note filtering through string and tag searches - Note editing and deletion - Tagging - Bookmarking - Note sharing (exporting) - Changing the order of notes - Moving notes between parents and children Note Sharing: - Notes can be exported to other apps or file folders via the action button on the note editing screen. - Options to select only the note being edited, all its siblings (notes at the same level), or all its descendants (notes at lower levels) - Select multiple output items: title/tags/creation date/modification date/body text - Auto-numbering: Automatically numbers titles when exporting multiple notes (optional) Settings: - Changing the font of titles and body text in the list and editing screens - Changing the base color - Dark mode toggle - Adjusting the maximum note width - Setting the number of lines for folded display in the list view (0 to 10 lines) - Setting the maximum number of display lines for body text in the list view (up to 500 lines) Other: - Backup and restoration of all data Limitations: - Only handles text. It cannot manage images, audio, location data, etc.

Just one a day. Kanso - Minimal places today's photo on a sheet of washi paper, lets you add a word, and then lets it go. It is not made for collecting photos. It is made for letting them go. - A DAY, IN FOUR STEPS 1. Take or choose Shoot right there, or pick a single photo from your library. 2. Compose Choose the shape (square, circle, rectangle), the paper, and the tone. Few choices, so there is little to hesitate over. 3. Write Add one line. With the keyboard, or by hand with your finger. Three pens - fountain, brush, pencil - and five inks. Write slowly and the line thickens; sweep quickly and it breaks into dry-brush marks. 4. Let go The card drifts away on the wind, and only empty space remains. - YOU DECIDE WHAT STAYS Before letting go, you can save the card as an image or share it. Do nothing, and nothing remains. - THE HOLDING PLACE Not sure yet? Set a card aside for later. Sort into Discard, Give, Sell, or Undecided, and decide another day. - iPAD AND APPLE PENCIL On iPad, a canvas lets you draw directly on the paper. Line width follows pressure, and quick strokes break into dry-brush marks. Once Apple Pencil is in use, finger touches are ignored, so you can rest your hand. Turn the device sideways and the card becomes a picture diary - photo on the left, words on the right. - KOYOMI - A ONE-TIME PURCHASE For the days you do want to keep. After you unlock it, every card you let go stays quietly in a calendar on your device. You can also choose a past date and fill in that day after the fact. It also lets you hide the date in the lower-right corner of a card, and adds four watercolor washi papers: Blossom, Mist, Leaf, and Wisteria. One payment, not monthly or yearly. Cards you let go before purchasing are not restored. - EVERYTHING STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE Your photos and your words are never sent anywhere. No account to create, and no analytics of any kind. Your original photos in the library are never modified. Japanese / English iPhone and iPad
