Craft allows you to take notes with a breadth of editing tools, which you can access via menus and keyboard shortcuts, to visually format documents with different headings and text styles. Think of Craft as a mix of Apple’s Notes app and powerful research tools such as Notion and, to an extent, modern alternatives like Obsidian and Roam. I don’t mean this in the context of “I’ve seen it all, everything is boring now” it’s just that after writing hundreds of app reviews in 11 years, testing even more betas, and following the evolution of App Store trends on both MacStories and AppStories, my threshold for being impressed by the 1.0 version of a new app or service is very high.Ĭraft, a note-taking app for iPhone, iPad, and Mac, is the kind of new experience that not only singlehandledly redefines a category, but it’s so exquisitely well thought-out, so elegantly designed, it pushed me to reconsider the very basics of my note-taking workflow. As we did last year, we have also created beautiful physical awards commemorating the winners, which we will be sending out to each in a couple of weeks.įederico: I’ve been reviewing apps at MacStories for well over a decade at this point, and it’s only natural that, over the course of several years, it’s become increasingly rare for a new app to genuinely surprise me and upend my expectations in a specific category. These are the third annual MacStories Selects Awards, which we debuted in 2018.
#NOTEPLAN ALTERNATIVES PLUS#
We had a wealth of excellent apps to choose from this year for the seven categories the MacStories Team chose:Īlong with the Readers’ Choice Award, which was chosen by Club MacStories members, that makes a total of eight award winners plus twelve runners-up. MacStadium: Your source for cloud-hosted M1 mini. The result was a list of MacStories Selects candidates that was longer than in any prior year of the awards. However, as we survey the past year, the depth of innovative apps makes it clear that many developers poured themselves into their apps in 2020. To say that bringing an app to life from idea to a fully-formed 1.0 is tough is a vast understatement, and 2020 hasn’t made the process any easier. With so many apps available in the App Store, though, it’s easy to take them and their creators for granted, which is why as the year comes to a close, we step back and pause to celebrate the MacStories Team’s favorite apps and the people who make them. They help us find a job and home, get work done, blow off steam, order a meal, and everything in between. Apps have become ubiquitous, seeping into every corner of our lives.
John: The MacStories Selects Awards are our annual love letter to apps and the people who make them. Box vanishes and I need to select the header and set it to minimize again. Minimizing paragraphs (the downward arrow function that leaves a. I'd like to keep it on the bottom of the screen, just offset. If the app doesn't support them than it is what it is.ġ.regarding the apple pencil - does Noteplan use a different "replace" function than other apps? I noticed that the "replace" function in Keynote gives more accurate results, especially if I'm using uncommon acronyms.Īpple pencil - can I customize the Noteplan bottom bar (the shortcuts bar with the special characters used for headers, tags, etc)? I'd like to remove the characters I don't use or sort them so my most common ones are all visible on my iPad.Īpple pencil - is it possible to move the apple pencil dock and keep it in the new position?( the midsized bubble with the keyboard, undo, and return button on it) it auto centers right now and covers other important things. If there is an alternative way to do these things I'm open to options. Context: I am using an iPad mini 6 with apple pencil, primarily as a digital notebook in a corporate setting.
