Anchu vs gronotes

Anchu gives your work a place to land. Keep tasks, notes, and documents together in a calm workspace that stays useful when life gets busy. A focused task board shows what needs attention now. The knowledge base keeps projects, research, and reference material in a simple folder tree. Search looks through document text—not only filenames—so the idea you remember is enough to find the page you need. On Mac, documents open ready to edit. On iPhone and iPad, they open in a clear reading view with native text selection, then switch to editing when you choose. Your document files remain ordinary, portable Markdown, HTML, or text files in the Vault you choose. Open that folder in Finder or Files, edit it with another app, back it up, or give a local AI agent permission to read and process the same files. Anchu indexes the files for fast navigation and search; it does not turn a hidden server-side document database into your source of truth. Privacy stays understandable: the local Vault remains under your control, and the service handles account, task synchronization, and the metadata needed to keep devices organized. Network connections use HTTPS. You choose which devices, folders, and local tools can access your documents. Anonymous mode lets you start without an account; sign in only when you want sync and device continuity. Anchu is deliberately quiet: no advertising profile, no dark patterns, and no lock-in to a proprietary document format.

A good place for your thoughts. Keep notes, tasks, ideas and code snippets in one clear app. Use tags, search, colored flags and due dates. Work locally and offline. Export your data or select your own shared folder through an available file or cloud provider. Ten entries in total are free; a one-time in-app purchase enables additional entries. Existing content remains readable, editable and exportable above the limit. No subscription. Shopping lists with an optional store, full item search and reuse of previous groceries. Checked items remain visible for five seconds so you can undo a tap. Recipes include ingredients, preparation, servings, custom categories and a favorite star; send ingredients to a new or existing shopping list. Attach images and files (up to 8 MB per file, 32 MB for the whole notebook including history). Track homework by subject, optional due date and completion. Choose visible sections per device in Settings; hidden entries are preserved. A list or recipe counts as one entry.
