Plain Org

This was just what I was looking for. Not too complex, just a pretty integration of org mode features and the ability to synchronise to the cloud. The apps in the bundle also seem great. The developer commented on the business model (one time purchase) being bad for maintaining the software. I hope he keeps maintaining it though - it seems like he has for a while now.

I use clear text for private and job related projects. Plain Org is a great way to have my files at hand on my phone

I love emacs but also like using a normal phone with my notes in a nice interface. Just wanted to say being on a phone brought some sync issues where I’d write updates to a file before the app could download updates. It’s a normal occurrence when you take the subway often. I’ve resorted to combining this app with another one called working copy. It lets me download my notes from a git repository locally, I make my edits on this app and when I’m done I commit back the changes. I thought I’d share this neat trick in case anyone else was like me, apprehensive about losing data and decided against having their org notes on a phone. I might write a hook to ease the flow of pushing and pulling changes but for the most part I’m using it to read things and pulling is easy enough.

This is wonderful ; the power, flexibility and versatility of Emacs Org-mode on iOS. Plain Org implements well with a simple UI easy enough to use by anyone

When I open a file in the app using a shortcut, the What’s New box always pops open. Changing the setting doesn’t persist. Seems like it’s specifically a problem when opening files with shortcuts.

The app is great with some issues. Copying and pasting doesn’t work all the time, whether its within the document or from the web. The issue above persists in the scratch app too. Another issue is the keyboard features to write quick notes from the scratch app aren’t there when editing raw text. Lastly, the current dark theme needs to be replaced with a grey or charcoal theme because the current dark theme contrast’s too much with the white text. Will update review when fixed.

Not sure where to file bug reports. If it’s non-maintained it should be taken off the App Store because currently it’s impossible to edit files with recent iOS updates.

Just needs some animations when opening subheadings.

This is very handy. It still has room for improvement, but I believe it is getting there!

Finally an org which I will use and makes sync just work with little overhead. Great job! Now checking out *scratch* & journelly
