jtx Board

jtx Board is an Open-Source, standards-based app with calendar integration, Markdown-based notes, and tasks.

Clipto

Clipto's name is deceiving as it's so much more than a clipboard manager. It's one of the best note-taking apps that I've used. You can use it local-only or signup using email, Facebook, or SMS. It's very customizable and configurable,

Notesnook

Notesnook is a privacy-first, zero-knowledge, open-source app that is well-designed and easy to use. It has almost every feature you could want in a note-taking app and then some.

SilentNotes

SilentNotes is a great, fast, Open-Source, secure, text-only note taking app that supports Markdown and tags and has many public cloud or private sync options. If it had image and audio attachments and sharing options it would be near the top of my list. Screenshots Meta * Score: 7/10 * Version:

Journey

I've got through most of the good and great note taking apps that don't require subscriptions as that was my goal: find the best (local first) Android note taking app. If I've missed a great one that you use, please let me know! There

neutriNote

neutriNote is a great open-source and free note taking app that supports Markdown, export to PDF or HTML or Markdown, backup and restore, inline images, location, and more! The UI isn't as fancy as some other apps and there's no WYSIWYG editing but this is definitely

Notepad by Dmitry Nazarov

Notepad by Dmitry Nazarov is one of the best Android note taking apps out there. It checks off most all of the important features: offline first, fast, free, supports Markdown, inline images, linking notes, encryption, backup and restore, and tons of settings. He even has a Notepad.Lite version without

JotterPad

JotterPad is a great note taking app targeted at authors and playwrights although it can be used by anyone. It's fast and has all of the features needed including Markdown, WYSIWYG editing, version history, and publish to Ghost or WordPress! It's relatively expensive at $40/yr

Zettel Notes

I have been excited to share this app with you as it has not received enough praise or attention in the note app market. There are so many little surprises that I keep finding interesting features. Zettel Notes is impressive and free with Markdown support, multiple themes, templates, text snippets,

Standard Notes

A security and privacy first app with end-to-end encrypted sync across devices as part of the free plan, incredible! The flipside is that basic functions like text formatting and checkboxes are an upgrade. I love that it's open-source, has 30 days of change history on notes, is available

GitJournal

GitJournal is for more than Developers. It's a great open source app which is well designed and easy to use. It has a journal mode, linking of notes, Markdown support, inline images, fast search, and 11 languages. You can sync notes to github, Gitlab, Gitea, or self hosted

Joplin

A few folks online suggested that I review this app. It's open-source, has Markdown and inline image support, linking of notes, tons of sync options, as well as desktop, mobile, and Web apps. I couldn't figure out how to export from the Android app besides sharing

Unreal Notepad

Unreal Notepad is a very nice, simple note taking app for Android with a clean UI and supports 17 languages. You can color notes, add audio, photo, video attachments and even draw with your finger. One very big gap is the inability to share a note with someone. I really

iA Writer

iA Writer is one of the better Android note taking apps that I've used. It's super fast, supports Markdown, has a clean UI, footnotes, and a ton of other features for free with no ads. Thank you! Thank you for subscribing to Note Apps and joining

Markor, just use it

The Markor Android note taking app is incredible! No ads, completely local, Markdown support, audio recording, and tons of custom settings. A few usability issues but those are far outweighed by the functionality and endless customization. You can import markdown or other formats and then export to PDF, image, Markdown,

WriterPlus

I've been using WriterP(lus) for a few weeks to quickly capture notes. It's a fast and clean editor that even runs on old versions of Android. It doesn't support tags, audio recording, image attachments, in-note search, and there's no preview mode

Quillnote

Quillnote is a free note taking developed by a Comp. Sci student at the University of Thessaly. It's fast, easy to use, and has tons of functionality including audio recording, markdown support, tags, and image attachments. Best of all it's Open-Source (GPL-3.0) and supports synchronization

Obsidian v1.0.5 scores 7/10

Obsidian v1.0.5 scores 7/10

I wanted to love Obsidian for Android because it's Canadian but I don't, not yet. It made me think way too much to use it to a point of frustration. The UI is awkward on a smartphone as it's trying to replicate the desktop

Nextcloud Notes v3.2.5 scores 7/10

Nextcloud Notes is a fairly complete Open Source app with text formatting, inline checklists, hyperlinks, and tables using Markdown. It requires a Nextcloud server to work and is a little sluggish to start up. Best part is it's free! Subscribe to read the complete review. About * Developer: Nextcloud

Dynalist v1.4.15 scores 8/10

My sister told me about this app years ago and I wish I had tried it because it's simply amazing and was developed in Canada by two University of Waterloo grads. On the downside you have to signup and the cost is expensive if you upgrade. That said

UpNote v3.0.2 scores 7/10

Relative to other apps, this one is "expensive" at $1.29/mo or $18.99 for lifetime. In reality it's not a lot to pay for some great functionality. It lacks audio recording but makes up for it with markdown support, linking of notes, cross-device synchronization,
