Indispensible

The arrival of the Mac version enhances the usefulness of the iOS version that I've come to rely on for quick capture of notes, information, or longer article-writing tasks.

The two greatest features of this are: 1) It's available on all my devices with fast startup. On the Mac there's a menu bar icon for quick capture. It is my 1st stop when I have an idea and AFTER I type it I can decide if it's a note for export to Evernote, a to do for export to ToDoist, an email or tweet for export to the appropriate tool. 2) It uses MarkDown, a simple-to-learn way of formatting your text without having to reach for a menu: bullets, numbered lists, italics, bold, headers, or indent.

One major hassle

I love Drafts and I've been using it for many years. I started using it in iOS before it was even available on Mac. In the beginning, the functionality that I enjoyed the most was the ability to reorder lines. Unfortunately, that is extremely frustrating in the currrent Mac app. The reason is that it is necessary to move in and out of the reordering mode in order to both edit and reorder the lines. I would love to just be able to edit and reorder simultenously without having to flip between different modes and start all over again at the top of the draft and find my place again. Even if it was possible to "turn on" reordering in same edit window, then that would make it so much easier. Thanks!

Developer Response ,

You might want to install actions in your action bar (above the keyboard) for moving lines up and down. That sounds generally like what you need and would not require switching mode. Some related tips and examples here: https://forums.getdrafts.com/t/tip-actions-for-working-with-lines-and-blocks/13037

Holy moly this is amazing!

I'm a paralegal and student so I need apps that work for me in both areas of my life. I've downloaded at lease 7 other notes apps and I have to say, after downloaded and testing this one out, I deleted them. I can't believe how efficient, simplistic, and aesthically pleasing this app. I love it so much, I purchased the pro version and downloaded the app on my phone. I would add feedback to allow font and background color change as well as font change but that would just be a bonus
