Inkiostro vs Plan&Rip

Inkiostro is a Markdown editor for people who write — notes, documentation, theses, novels. Plain text files that stay yours, a preview that looks like a finished page, and exports ready to hand over. Write in Markdown, or in the visual editor and never see a symbol. Buy once, no subscription. No account, no tracking. WRITE, SEE, FINISH • Two ways to write: the Markdown editor shows the symbols, the visual editor formats as you type, like a word processor. Either way the file stays plain Markdown. (Visual editor: Pro, free for 7 days) • A complete Markdown toolbar: headings, lists, tables and code blocks, one tap away. • A side-by-side preview that comes back exactly where you left it. • LaTeX formulas typeset by KaTeX, and Mermaid diagrams drawn as you type. • 27 preview styles, 11 of them free: GitHub, Sepia, Nord, Solarized and more. With Pro, Manuscript, Book, Report, Academic and others set the page like print. • Focus and Typewriter modes, a live word count and a daily writing goal. FROM DRAFT TO BOOK • PDF with selectable text, formulas and diagrams included. Free, with a small credit line in the footer. • A professional ePub: real chapters, a cover, ISBN, series, footnotes that open over the page, and the accessibility declaration Europe requires. The export sheet tells you what a store would reject — before you send it. (Pro) • A book made of many files: one chapter per file, in a folder, in the order you choose. Arranging it is free; exporting it as a single ePub is Pro. • Self-contained HTML, and page setup for PDF: paper, margins, headers and page numbers. (Pro) NEVER LOSE A WORD • Version history: Inkiostro saves versions as you write. Search them, compare them line by line, and bring back a single word or a whole draft. (Pro) • Backups of your whole library: a dated zip archive with your version history inside, offered when one is due, while the app is open, in a folder you pick. Open it in the Files app and your Markdown files are right there. (Pro) YOUR FILES, YOUR RULES • Unlimited documents, as plain .md files you can open anywhere. • Folders, color labels and tags, with search that filters by tag. • iCloud Drive sync between iPhone, iPad and Mac, with no setup. • External folders: work directly inside any folder on your device or in iCloud Drive.

Plan&Rip is the sticky-note wall, in your pocket. If you've ever organized a project on a real wall — moving paper notes between days, sliding the urgent one closer, ripping one off when it's done — you know there's something a list will never replace. The physical motion is the planning. The wall is the calendar. Plan&Rip brings that feeling to iPhone. — THE WALL — Five zones: • Upcoming or Important — for things that matter but aren't dated • Current Week — what you're doing now • Next Week — what's coming • Following Week — what's after that • Unsorted — the parking lot Each week is a Monday-to-Friday grid with nine snap points: one for every day, plus the overnight slots in between. Drag a sticky into the slot it belongs to — the snap is magnetic. — THE STICKIES — Tap + to add. Each sticky has a project, a task, a date, and a color — four pastel colors to organize your week however you like. Drag a sticky from anywhere to anywhere. Long-press to pick it up and feel it peel off the wall. Drag across day boundaries and you'll feel a tick at every snap point you cross. Let go and it jiggles into place. — RIP TO COMPLETE — When a task is done, tap the sticky to open it, then drag its top-right corner downward. As you pull, you feel the paper resist — fibers giving way one by one — and the tear opens along a torn-paper edge. Pull past the threshold and it rips in half. Gone. — THE FEEL — Built around Core Haptics, not generic vibration. Every interaction has its own texture: • Peel from the wall on pickup • A tick for each grid line you cross • A settle when you drop a sticky • Progressive tear resistance while ripping • A sharp snap at the moment of separation The haptics aren't decoration. They're the second half of the planning interface. — WHAT IT ISN'T — Plan&Rip is not a project management tool. It doesn't sync with calendars. It doesn't tag, assign, or report. It doesn't try to scale to teams or quarters. It's a calm planning surface for the next few weeks of your life. That's the entire pitch. — PRIVACY — Plan&Rip stores your stickies locally on your device. No tracking, no analytics, no account, no cloud sync. Nothing leaves your phone.
