Hvis man velger å synkronisere filer gjennom iCloud, i stedet for å lagre de lokalt på mobilen, tar det flere sekunder å starte appen. At det tar opp i mot 10 sekunder å komme i gang ødelegger flyten og gjør appen ugunstig for å kjapt notere ned noe. Jeg kommer ikke til å bruke Obsidian på min mobil.
I’m very happy to see a full-featured iOS client which can sync via iCloud, and that we finally have another iOS note app which uses MarkDown files in a regular folder instead of a locked database. However, being some kind of web app, this still doesn’t feel like a native app (although the “Minimal” community theme helps a lot). I think also that the default mobile UX could be improved, e.g. by making the Quick Switcher accessible via the default drag-down menu (luckily you can customise this yourself).
Pleas giv us Dropbox synk. Im working cross platform and thats the only real solotions for me. I cant start to use this before Dropbox synk is oficial
I’ve always struggled finding a way to stay organized without feeling overwhelmed by the process itself. Any app that promised to organize my brain just sat on my phone. I write books and besides Google docs (which definitely has its limits), I tried so many different apps which either I had to subscribe to be able to access their gated community or they just weren’t simpatico with my brain. Thankfully, I kept my search up, and finally discovered Obsidian. Whoever made this app, thank you. I recommend it to everyone. It’s simple and straightforward without a lot of flashy design—nothing wrong with that, but as someone with a mind of fireworks, it’s nice to have something easy. It works on my desktop as well, which makes this writer very happy. 🌞
What is the point to have to pay for synch between my own computer and my phone?
I’ve been using Obsidian on desktop for a while now. As a software engineer and hobby novelist it works great for both my technical notes and my brainstorming. Having the file system be something I can access easily and create copies of puts me in control and I love it. I just found out I can share a vault with my iPad using iCloud sync and my favorite app just got even better?! One small request, I’m working on an iPad mini (not ideal I know but it is great for portability). Providing ways to hide parts of the UI like the format toolbar that appears above the keyboard and isn’t really needed for those who know markdown, would be great. I want to be able to use my iPad to jot down story ideas on the go but the vertical space with the landscape keyboard is really small.
The Obsidian app is one of my most frequently used and relied on apps, and it has been for years now. I use the Obsidian Sync service and it's been pretty flawless for me between my iPhone and my Mac (the only two devices that I use regularly). I've had a couple minor issues, but they were addressed pretty quickly via the Obsidian forum. Overall, this app is essential for managing my life, and I'm extremely thankful for it and the awesome dev team who supports it!
Obsidian is my favorite app yo organize my notes for large and complicated projects. The app *used to* constantly freeze when opened because it would get stuck syncing iCloud files, which would never finish on cellular data. Other times it would load but then immediately freeze. Since I updated to iOS 18 and set my Obsidian vault folder to “Keep downloaded” in the Files app, it has worked flawlessly.
I don’t see anything on the development, Apple intelligence integration but it would be really cool if he did that, regardless it’s a great app
