Weiming Note vs Nib

Weiming Note is a calm, writing-first note workspace for daily writing, inbox capture, and longer notes across iPhone and the web. Sign in with Apple, keep notes synced through an app-owned account, pin and archive what matters, export markdown copies, and delete your account directly in the iPhone app at any time.

Nib is a writing app that stays out of your way. Nib opens on your library: your notes and pages as cards. Notes are for catching a thought: tap New note and start typing. Pages are for real writing, with headings, an outline you can jump through, images and tables. File notes and pages in folders by dragging them onto one, or give them a category in a colour. Three of each are free. Format as you would in Notes: checklists, bulleted and numbered lists, bold, italic, underline and highlight, from the bar above the keyboard. Link notes as you write: type [[ and pick one. Each note lists the ones that link to it. Catch a thought from anywhere. Send text or a link to Nib from the share sheet, add a note with Shortcuts, or start one from a widget on your Home Screen. Set a reminder on any note, and Nib tells you at the time you chose. Bring your notes with you: import from Simplenote, Bear, Evernote or Notesnook, or any Markdown. Everything stays on your device unless you share a draft or turn on sync. There are no accounts, no ads, no analytics and no tracking. Lock Nib with Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode. Version history goes back 30 days, so you can return to what you wrote before. Pin what matters, and restore what you trash. Share a draft by link, read-only, for a week. Set a daily word goal and keep a streak. Turn on the style check, and Nib counts what might read better: filler, passive voice, clichés and long sentences. Make it yours: light, dark or one of seven more themes, and in Settings → Customize, the size, width, spacing and typeface of your text. Your writing is never locked in. Export any page as Markdown, or save a full backup of your whole library, free forever. NIB PLUS • Your library on your iPhone, iPad and Mac, with encrypted sync and a sync code only you hold.
