Scrivener qualifies, right? Plus it has a Windows version too.
I’ve used the ios and Windows apps - both are excellent - but not Mac.

I don’t use it on either platform, but doesn’t One Note qualify?

Thanks everyone!
I’ve updated the description to make clear that this is for *dedicated outliners* only, not every app that has an outlining function. This excludes Evernote, One Note, Scrivner, MindMap apps that have limited outliner views, etc.

Steve, I use Dynalist a lot now. I gave up on Workflowy because development has virtually stopped. Initially I didn’t like Dynalist as much as Workflowy. Dynalist is actively developed, and now I like it better than Workflowy. It has become the more elegant program.

I’m hopeful that Outlinely will eventually improve their desktop app, but right now I find Dynalist to be easier to use on the desktop. Not crazy about the iOS app though. Outlinely is still much better on mobile, and will likely remain so since Dynalist is not a native iOS app. For some reason in-browser apps can be as good as native apps on the desktop, but web-view apps on iOS generally trail far behind in terms of usability when compared with native apps.
