Tertiary Markdown is a fast, native Markdown notes app for Mac, iPad, and iPhone. It manages your files and folders the way Obsidian does — open any local folder as a vault and your notes stay as plain .md files you fully own. KEY FEATURES • Open any folder as a vault — fully compatible with your existing Obsidian vault.

Your work autosaves as you type. • Images, Bear-style — embed pictures with standard Markdown ![](image.png) or Obsidian ![[image.png]] embeds, rendered inline. • Tables, Notion-style — GitHub-flavoured tables render as clean, bordered grids. • Everyday Markdown — headings, bold and italic, links, checklists, bullet and numbered lists, block quotes, and code blocks. • One app, every device — a true native experience on macOS, iPadOS, and iOS. Your notes never leave your device. Everything is stored as simple text files on your Mac, iPad, or iPhone, so you stay in control and your library is future-proof.
