I posted the questions I had yesterday in this forum in the Reddit thread and received an instan...
Need a memory jog

Satis, thanks for the information about the new app Notemap. You always come across such great apps!
I tried it out and am liking what I see. Although it is still in development, Notemap is well polis...
Speare word processor

I hope that the developer is still interested in developing Speare, even if it is on the back burner.
I still have not received any reply to my email enquiries that were about subscriptions.
I wanted ...

Has anyone ended up tryng out Speare?
There has been no development of the app since May last year (2025), the website is still 2025, and I have sent an email to support a couple of times over the las...
## I bought the new Pomera DM250
10/24/2025
I am trying to find out if it is possible to sync text files TO the Japanese version of Pomera DM250 via Wifi. Also, how to get English spell check running on the device.
The (Japanese) manual descri...
@Amontillado, thanks so much for your detailed reply.
Allow me some time to ingest the learnings in both your reply and your blog so I give the proper response you deserve.
"Object outlining" ... you...
@Amontillado, I have seen you post several times about how you use Devonthink in your research work.
I am most interested in how you use it for notetaking. (I have a memory of reading how you use Dev...

I just received a further response from the developers who let me know that they will keep working on making it possible to have iCloud sync with Lattics.
I am impressed with how the developers are c...

"Hi, very sorry
It's very difficult for supporting iCloud, because we choose Electron framework to develop Lattics, an...

Thank you, Dormouse, for your detailed comments on some of my questions about Lattics and for sharing insights into how you use the app and how it fits into your workflow.

I have noticed the speed of updates that often include new features.
There was an update waiting for me even today.
As I mentioned previously, when I am able to sync Lattics between my office iMac and...
Lattics
1/25/2025
Just a heads up, I confirmed with the Lattics developer that iCloud sync support is planned from next month (February 2025). Currently, OneDrive, WebDAV, and Jianguoyun are the other sync services off...
Mellel! Thanks for reminding me of this app! I should try it out properly when I work on my next paper.
For now, I will continue with Scriviner. I can quit put my finger on it, but it is something wit...
Thanks for this Alexander. I was thinking about looking at ways I could link other sync services to WebDav and you showed me the way!
Unfortunately, Multcloud is over budget for me (even more so with...
Since I work on my MacBook when I am at home and my MacBook Air when I am out working in a café or research site or at university, sync is important for me.
I am glad to hear that the progress is...
I am in the writing-up stage for a research paper I have been working on for several months. I am trying Lattics out, but I became frustrated when there was no sync option for iCloud (I use a Mac) or ...

Hello again Steve,
Thanks again for sharing your latest finds! :) (I'm just curious where/how to find out about these apps.)
Noteey seems to be on the path to being an app I could use for annotating ...

Hello Steve,

I already am a fan of Milanote's ability to link text or image boxes with lines and arrows wit...

Anyone trying out Kortex?
10/26/2024
Thanks for your take, Dormouse. From other topic posts in this forum, it seems that many other well-known apps are making it easier to work with long-form writing. Each app has its own philosophy for ...
Anyone trying out Kortex?
10/21/2024
Thanks for reminding of Lattics, Dormouse. I tried out Lattics when I was first released. I liked the concept, but the app was only in its infancy. I use Zotero daily, so the news about its integratio...
Anyone trying out Kortex?
10/14/2024
Darn! I just signed up. Hopefully, I won't receive a bunch of marketing emails. The video describing the functions of Kortex is what got me. The "capture" feature appears useful and a powerful version...

Opps ... sorry. I spoke too soon. Vithanco has a one-time purchase for three of the dedicated versions. The version which has all the versions included, the full version, has gone subscription. The fr...

Although the features may not be that of Flying Logic, Vithanco https://vithanco.com/tools/ is a possible replacement if you work on a Mac.
The app is available for a one-time purchase with a free ver...
I'm newly impressed with what Notebooks has become. I have been searching for an app that is a less bloated version of Scrivener to use when I am writing an academic paper or book (long-form writing)....
