I always write in Markdown, and having my hash marks auto-converted into header text isn’t what I want. If you write in Markdown, inside a note in Alternote, however, the app auto-converts Markdown to rich text. If you paste a chunk of Markdown text into a note, nothing happens. Notesįirst up, Alternote kind of supports Markdown. In fact, Alternote offers no access to Shortcuts. Starring a note doesn’t have any effect in other client apps, like the iOS Evernote app. Both modes include the note’s creation date, and both show a star for favorite notes.Ī quick note on favorites.
ALTERNOTE REVIEW 2016 FULL
Full puts a small one-line excerpt of the note under the title. The notes list can be switched between “full” and “compact” modes. Evernote forces you to go into a whole separate view, whereas Alternote just gives me a list where I need it. The source pane at left also contains sections for starred items, plus collapsible sections for notebooks and tags. The window is divided into three panes, just like Evernote – notebooks and stacks, notes, and the note pane itself. For instance, hovering over a URL throws up a popover with options to open or edit that URL (you can just click the URL and it’ll open as expected, in your default browser (background opening can be enabled in preferences). Not hidden hidden, like in Evernote itself – Alternote isn’t nearly as frustrating. But in that simple interface is hidden a lot of power. The interface is pretty much just a white rectangle with black text, plus some relaxing blue highlights. It’s beautiful, and not a hint of green anywhere. If you ever get frustrated by Evernote’s bloat, Alternote is your answer.īest of all, it runs on Evernote’s back end, so you lose nothing by trying it out, and it automatically integrates with all your other Evernote tools. It dumps many of Evernote’s advanced “features,” focusing on note-taking and note-using instead.
Alternote for the Mac is like Evernote for the Mac, done right.
