Outliner

This is truly the best mobile app I have. Instead of wasting time on YouTube or social media I can write short stories, tweak my space combat board game rulebook, add films that me and my girlfriend should watch or have watched or just updating the things to do list. My only worry is that Carbinfin will run out of money and the app will be gone. The other bloated apps can’t compete, this truly the best.

Outliner motsvarar mina höga förväntningar på hur en outlineapp ska vara. Outliner är smidigt och flexibelt att jobba i och tack vare möjlighet att synka mot en server, arbeta med informationen från en vanlig browser och möjlighet att dela listor med andra användare känns det komplett. Själv använder jag Outliner till packlistor, organisera idéer, anteckningar mm. Jag har nu använt programmet i många år och utvecklaren har flera gånger levererat nya meningsfulla uppdateringar. Det finns dock en sak utvecklaren gärna får uppdatera, gör en bättre synkning som känns mer modern. Gärna en automatisk synkning så fort man har skrivit något nytt och där en annan användare automatiskt ser ändringarna på delade listor.

Om du inte vet vad en outliner är så har du missat ett värdefullt verktyg. Om du vet, så förstår du varför du inte kan klara dig utan en. Jag har testat ett flertal outliners till iPad och iPhone, och den här sopar banan! Synkar smidigt, och helt automatiskt iom senaste versionen. Man kan dela enskilda outlines med andra användare. Flitigt använt i vår familj. Ett gratis tillhörande webbgränssnitt är toppen - även om det inte är det bästa tänkbara så är det enda appen som erbjuder det. Utmärkt för mer omfattande redigeringar.

Vilken upptäckt. Är så glad. :)

I’ve used it daily for over a decade now. There’s simply no better app for nestling lists within lists within lists. Now, I wouldn’t say it absolutely needs an Apple Watch companion app but it sure would be awesome on the watch.

I have used this app, and relied on it, for many years. I just count on it so much, it’s a part of life for me. It keeps my lists, checklists for when I have to travel, outlines for classes I teach, etc. Super features for me: Easy movement of whole outline blocks, simple to do and without the complicating logistics of other programs The ability to access outlines from ipad, iphone and the web. Easy export Just puts from my knothole. Thanks a ton for keeping this going. I wrote this review several years ago and my opinion hasn’t changed a bit!!

It’s so incredibly simple fast & easy to use. Elegant software at it’s finest!

Great for all kinds of outlining. Also great for Goal tracking and other aspects of linear time management. Excellent integration with Dropbox and seamless text exporting. It is not perfect, but it is a minimalist app which perfectly handles outlines.

Let me start by saying I love this app. I’ve reviewed it with 5 stars before but I’ve recently ran into a problem. I use Dropbox to sync my OPML files and this has worked flawlessly for a long time. However, I had to create a new Dropbox account a few days ago due to a lock. This meant I had to re-connect apps that relied on the platform to Dropbox from scratch. Outliner was one of those apps. Unfortunately, a few hours after authorizing the app, Outliner threw a sync error asking me to re-authorize. I did so thinking it was a fluke. However, this kept happening every time I used Outliner thereafter, the app kept asking me to re-authorize. At first, I thought this was an issue with mine alone or my Dropbox having a problem. However, upon researching, I found that Dropbox have updated their API with short-lived access tokens that expire in 4 hours time. According to Dropbox team, the app itself needs to be update to make use of permanent tokens if one wishes to authorize access once and have syncing without interruption after. And so I’m asking the devs here. Please update the app to correctly sync with Dropbox once more. Since there aren’t many cloud storage services available to use for syncing, users are limited on their choices and the buggy behavior slows workflow a lot besides being plain annoying. Edit: just like that it’s back! Much thanks to the good folks at CarbonFin for fixing the Dropbox issue. Now it syncs perfectly like it did before. This app is indispensable!

I have used this app for a number of years and it stays on all my devices and is used constantly. If you're looking for an outline app this is a must for you!
