Zoot’s developer, Tom Davis, has been working on it continuously for more than two decades, so it’s unfair to say it has an “uncertain development future.” Very little of the software discussed here has that long of a history of dedication. He’s continually tweaking the app and the most recent update was May 15, 2018.

It does do those things but personally I think it’s strength is being able to quickly vacuum up large quantities of information, then sift, sort, tag, and categorize it later in myriad ways. I don’t use it routinely for a variety of reasons, but I do occasionally and it deserves much more love on this forum than it’s gotten in recent years.
