MacroMark vs Subnotes

MacroMark is a fast Apple Watch and iPhone capture tool for people who live in Markdown. Tap your watch, speak or type, and MacroMark turns the thought into a plain-text daily note entry. Your captures append to date-based Markdown files in iCloud Drive, ready for Obsidian, Logseq, or any folder-based notes workflow. Key features - Capture from Apple Watch with microphone or keyboard input - Save quickly when the moment passes, with the original capture timestamp preserved - Queue watch captures until iPhone processing and export are durable or safely retryable - Append notes to daily Markdown files instead of creating scattered one-off files - Use verbal macros to turn spoken triggers into Markdown formatting, dates, times, locations, and reusable text - Review daily notes by date from iPhone or Apple Watch - Keep your notes in plain text, in storage you control How it works Start a capture from the app or watch complication. MacroMark records the thought, transfers it to the iPhone, expands any macros, and appends the result to the configured daily note. The workflow is designed for quick capture first: fewer taps, durable delivery, and Markdown output you can keep using anywhere. MacroMark is for note-takers, writers, field workers, Obsidian and Logseq users, and anyone who wants quick thoughts to land in a real Markdown system instead of a closed notes silo. MacroMark is free. Capture, daily notes and custom macros are included; no subscription is required. Questions or feedback? Use the support link on this App Store page.

Subnotes is a plain-text notes and to-do list app for iPhone, iPad & Mac. Any line you write can become a task. • Thoughts and tasks, side by side — jot things down like a paper notebook, then switch views to see everything organized by priority, automatically. • Editing a task is just editing text • Recurring tasks and due dates • Link notes together to connect related thinking • Templates for weekly reviews, meeting notes, habit tracking, trip planning, and more. Note-taking and task planning are deeply personal — so Subnotes stores everything as plain text, not a proprietary format. Copy, paste, or export anytime. It also syncs privately over your own iCloud account: no signup, no account creation, no servers but Apple's. For iPhone, iPad, and Mac
