The Craft toggles are done really well!! I would love to see the same implementation in UpNote...

It is hard to believe but I am CRIMPing once again. I have been from
NotePlan to Notion back to NotePlan and now to Craft in a matter of a
few years. 'I doubt anyone on this site could relate to that.'
After reading the posts about Craft on this site, I downloaded and tried
it out. Beautiful design that just feels right, but I had moved from
Notion to NotePlan because I wanted a Journal tied to a calendar (plus
folding text). Then I got the email saying they had added a daily
journal tied to a calendar.
I think they once again did a great job on the design of the daily
journal. Craft has always seemed like a somewhat scaled version on
Notion, but more elegantly laid out and much faster. I had no real
problems with NotePlan, but so far the execution of Craft is a step
above most of what I have used in the past.
Besides the daily journal, what got me really excited about Craft was
their toggles. I had a lot of difficulty using toggles in Notion. They
were extremely slow to load, and I had lost data copying them from day
to day. Also, when copying toggles it would only copy what was expanded,
not the collapsed pages.
Craft toggles are very useful and user-friendly. I am already
incorporating them more than I did in Notion, and they easily replace
the folding text feature of NotePlan.
Craft had a nice import feature that imported all of my notes from
NotePlan including images! The hard part was placing all of the daily
journal entries in the respective calendar days in Craft.
The biggest issue I had with importing was that larger pages did not get
completely imported, and hand copying a large file into a note has a
limit, but it does not inform you of that. Large files also seem a
little slow.
But so far I am extremely pleased with Craft for note taking and daily
journaling. This usually happens during the honeymoon period and may
change in the future, but so far I am very pleased with the program.
