do you plan to have a mobile app?

would you implement database function like in Notion?

Is it a full feature todo app or just noting down tasks?

would be a killer app if it has 3 Yes


1. Planned, but our first focus is the web app (plus desktop Electron)

2. Yes. We have a bunch of default views like table, kanban, photo gallery, and calendar. You can also create your own views with a JS plugin, like this silly example of spinning globe view: https://x.com/wcools/status/1898828593255346287

3. Our aim is a full feature todo app. But we won't have every feature on day 1.


This app requires iOS 17.2 or newer


This looks very promising. All the best growing it.

From my brief look at the site, the product seems to allow users to query and display data only. Can we edit the data at all?

It looks like this product targets teams and not well-suited to individuals (ie private note taking app with database like Notion). I did not see any way to create new data or edit existing data, or if you even have a mobile app.

The first 2 problems you mentioned did not apply to me at all, while the 3rd problem has been my wishlist for Notion for a long time


Congrats on the effort. Looking forward to have this expanded or further developed. The reason why I still use Notion is definitely for their database feature and an usable mobile app. It’s hard coming back to desktop-only


Are you aware of a better alternative? I am trying to see if I should commit to using Proton or not. I am just a normal users who do not want to be tracked or my data used. Maybe Proton is still very decent for that


Not really, no. Unless you want to self-host in your own home hardware.


Not OP but thanks for the detailed explanations


Wow thanks for the link. I have not thought of it and I have been trying to export my notes out without success (I don’t have a mac)


Is there a way to export all your passwords on a Windows PC, or from iPhone? I do not have a mac


A more important question is, is there a way to export all your passwords after you're locked out? One of the major risks here is you permanently lose access to your One Ring to Rule Them All account and thereby all of the others.

In theory you can export the data to some out-of-ecosystem backup device on a regular basis, but we all know that most people are not going to do that.


Why don’t you just install the windows app they announced?


I want to have a copy of all my passwords and Apple does not provide that

I have been stung a few times by apple locking my data within their ecosystem (eg I can’t export my notes from iPhone out without a Mac, or MANUALLY copy each note which is crazy) so I refuse to use any of their apps or features unless I own my data


No

The backup situation is terrible - Mac only - Only Passwords (no passkeys) - Only items you created (so nothing shared with you, even if you own the shared “group”)

In short your only option is one at a time manual export


I don’t have a Mac so I couldn’t access my Notes natively, or export it to use elsewhere.

Another reason stopping me from using apple notes is that their search sucks (both within note and across all notes)


Which mobile app do you use for todo.txt?


Markor does that really well.


Thanks. I missed that you were talking about android
