Keep it simple
Love that it is a simple note-taking app.
I use Evernote for business, and when I need to put in huge amounts of information. This makes the note large, and includes other PDF’s documents, files, etc.
With Simplenote, I take small clips of information that I need to record now, and reference later with quick shortcuts on my keyboard and it’s instantly in my view. Being able to do operations via keyboard only makes it super-quick.
I’d say a few things could make it better:
1> I would request that the search gets better than it currently is…seems like you can search for 1 word and then…the results are sorts what you get…what about if I want to keep narrowing it down so I don’t have to sort through 100 notes? As an example, search on Simplenote and then search on nvAlt - you’ll see what I mean. Maybe let me search title AND note contents simultaneously.
2> Maybe allow for some different fonts to be used - sometimes it’s just easier on the eyes to use something else and I didn’t see an option to change this as of yet.
Sync has been wonderful and was a huge pain in the past - also being able to collaborate on documents and publish to the web right from the app is a real time-saver instead of having to go online and do it via the site.
3> More keyboard shortcuts, like adding tags without having to mouse cursor over to the field
4> Option to enable Markdown in-app instead of having to go to the website for a published note to check a box that states it’s using Markdown…that’s a bummer.
5> Sort option by published or not
6> Add an icon so we can see a note is published in-app like we can in the web version
Keep up the great work on this app!
