Very simple to use…sync almost real-time…great app
I have been using Drafts and learning about its different features. The app is beautiful and well-made. I love how quickly you can start writing, and it is amazing how many integrations there are. You can certainly get away with starting text here for almost anything. I also love the workspaces feature and that you can keep everything organized with the tags. Unfortunately, the app has not yet implemented encrypted fields for Apple's Advanced Data Protection. That means if you turn on iCloud Sync (even if you have turned on Apple's ADP), your texts will not be end-to-end encrypted. That is a deal-breaker for me, as I mostly use E2E encrypted apps. Using Drafts to write a journal entry for Day One, for example, will defeat the point of E2E journals in Day One if the information is stored in iCloud unencrypted. I promise the developers that as soon as they add E2E encrypted iCloud sync, I will subscribe to the Pro or Patron plan.
I was using Drafts 4. Now out of development, Drafts 5 has appeared as a Subscription. Please no subscriptions, especially for a text editor app
I'm continually amazed by how much depth this app has. It's utterly indispensable to me. Very much recommended.
The app and the developer are among the best in the App Store. No wonder it’s gotten a lifetime achievement award, well deserved! I tried obsidian for a while but came crawling back :) my only ask would be to odd outlining capability like Logseq but that’s just a nice to have, everything this apps needs it already does perfectly!! Even the subscription price is very fair and I hate subscriptions! /rant
Use it everywhere CONSTANTLY. Drafts handles so much so well that I can’t imagine my digital life without it.
Last major “update” has turned what was an intuitive app into a mess. Updating for the sake of updating is idiotic. Please stop. There’s an old saying that goes “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”
This update caused Drafts to disappear from Safari’s share destinations. Huge problem for my workflow. I’m sure this will be fixed and Drafts is a great app so 5 stars in anticipation.
literally in the middle of typing i get a review prompt. STOP
Great support by the developer Essential app
