I bought a Pro subscription a while back, and have been using it as a work journal and daily management tool. But the team is really improving things. In addition to the standalone app (that Chrome subset thing), they’re working on Android and iOS apps. I’ve been using it on my Android phone (just the website) and iOS (again, website only), and it works much better than the experience of Workflowy. About all it’s missing lately is a word count and drop and drop on mobile. But they’re closing the gaps between desktop and mobile rapidly. It’s nice to see, along with Outlinely, some real progress in the outline app world.
Merry Christmas, all.

I should try it again. I have grown frustrated waiting for a new Workflowy version. The developer says soon, but no indication of what that means.

After three years as a workflowy pro subscriber I too ran out of patience and recently switched to Dynalist. I’m not going to continue paying workflowy $50/yr just for hosting my outline data. Dynalist is doing a great job of making steady improvements and enhancements, and engaging their users on a regular basis. Very refreshing. I will gladly support their efforts with a pro subscription and encourage others to consider doing the same.

I see your point. If you’re not using it, it definitely doesn’t make sense to keep paying for it. Workflowy lets you easily export to OPML. And of course, Dynalist will import it directly. Kudos to Workflowy for building an open platform, and for making such a frictionless tool.
I don’t know as much about encryption on the Dynalist platform. Anybody else?

I’ve recently begun using Dynalist too. It’s not as “clean” as Workflowy, but it has a number of features that Workflowy does not. The most important of these for me is that I can organize my outlines in nested folders. I’m putting it through its paces, but I like it so far.
