From where I sit, office apps (specifically Office -- as in Microsoft) are far from waning. My gov't clients eat this stuff up and churn out .docx .pptx .xlsx as fast as they can. The billions spent...

Notebooks 2.0 now available for macOS

He's a good guy. Worth the investment just to keep the effort going.

Notebooks 2.0 now available for macOS
7/11/2019
OK, it's great to see v2 arrived, but a few quibbles. The website says that v2 is an "upgrade" but there's no upgrade fee. Just $39 for v2 and that's that. I notice that on the App Store it's $35...
"Hook" app now on sale
7/6/2019
Starting a new thread on "Hook" since the original thread was diverted into numerous unrelated topics. This app is now on sale -- official launch is July 10 2019 I believe:

I believe the last version of TheBrain that offered this HTML export feature was v8. The software is now on v10. TheBrain seems to have abandoned their pre-v9 export features entirely.

Thanks. Agenda is a nicely designed app. The release notice sent to subscribers hinted that Apple Pencil will be supported in Agenda on iPads after ipadOS 13 is released -- which will support addin...
Capstone: a tablet for thinking

Very interesting. The features in the main demo video remind me of similar features in ZoomNotes, on iOS and macOS.
iMindMap and DropTask merged into Ayoa
6/21/2019
I'm pretty sure the only integration DropTask/Ayoa has had with calendars is with Google Calendar. That's what I use, which is fine -- I just display that integrated calendar with my calendar app. ...
iMindMap and DropTask merged into Ayoa
6/21/2019
@Jeffrey Smith -- just a thought, but if clearing caches and cookies doesn't resolve the problems you're having with settings for the subscription, you could do all of that on their iPad version, if t...
Thank you Simon -- I see the distinction. Finder is an excellent document repository and Foxtrot supports that use case very well.
I prefer working in DEVONthink even when just doing repository work...
I'm not grasping how Foxtrot is a DEVONthink replacement. Foxtrot is discovery (seach, etc.) on steroids for whatever is in the target volume indexed by Foxtrot. DEVONthink is limited to whatever i...
Agenda v6 (beta) on the Mac includes the anticipated integration with Reminders. It is very cool, IMO. Add reminders to individual lines or items in Notes -- if you want that granularity. Or crea...
How does IOT play into that future, @washere?
I have no doubt, as @washere argues, that Linux will continue to make inroads. I'm just not sure in what domains "Linux will be king". Certainly Linux penetration is growing with AWS and others del...
Thanks for the heads up, Lucas. I agree, it's rough. Maybe check it out again in a year or so. Not really compelling at this point to replace Dynalist with something that costs as much and has few...
Most days I am on VPN using a Dell laptop (GFE from the agency I support) with Windows 10 and M365 (O365 for gov't) client and cloud apps. Next to it, on my MacBook running a Windows 10 VM for my cor...
Forced Upgrades

I am one of the 3 people in North America who likes the TouchBar. I think there's a fellow in Uruguay who likes it, also, and a doctoral candidate in Kazakhstan who depends on it for her thesis work...
iMindMap and DropTask merged into Ayoa
6/11/2019
Yes, deleted without warning. So far, for me, iMindMap 11 is still running -- and I will never choose the command in options to check for updates. The whole process stinks. The irony is that the...
I played with that thought a while back and decided no -- the DEVONthink sorter in the menubar is not a good substitute for Curiota. It failed in two respects:
1. The DEVONthink widget cannot be de...
Is anyone actually using Hook?
I realized this morning that it has been activating every time I boot but it never occurs to me to use it.
I think the developer is getting close to ending his be...
Forced Upgrades
6/11/2019
Bill, Bear is **only** $1.49/month -- for 50 cents you get a cute icon. Come on, who can resist :-)
My interest is piqued by nvUltra -- the long promised vaporware follow-on to nvAlt. Since Fletch...
iMindMap and DropTask merged into Ayoa

OpenGenius has merged its two main products, iMindMap and DropTask, into a single subscription product, "Ayoa".

Figuring out the pricing is a bit of a challenge. I had a DropTa...
(Yet another) interesting new app!
6/5/2019
Notenik is interesting, but you get what pay for. It's free. And it's very buggy. After a few attempts to do what the help file says it does, the app stopped letting me edit notes.
Deleted.
Stupid Devonthink tricks
6/3/2019
Since tags are just a type of group in DEVONthink, why not just use groups for your projects? When the database is "enabled for tagging", child groups and documents inherit the parent(s)' names as g...
