I had pre-ordered, so the app has arrived on my devices today. I’m a little underwhelmed by the changes. Most of them bring the app into line with the features that had been established in Notebooks 2 for Mac. I was hoping for something more? Not sure what exactly, but that’s my initial feeling.

To be honest I bought it more to support the developer rather than it filling a hole in my workflow.

I typically use DEVONthink for archival storage and have recently been using Noteplan (or Agenda) for daily notes.

I’ve gone so far as to reinstall Dropbox on my Macs to see if I can make a go of Notebooks. This was after I had futzed around with WebDAV - both local and through Fastmail - before deciding it was creating more problems than it was solving. Again, DEVONthink/NotePlan/Agenda have syncing sorted out without Dropbox, so not sure what I’m gaining, other than software bloat with the latest Dropbox clients.

I look forward to other people’s take on Notebooks - and am always interested in how it is incorporated into workflows.
