Cloud Outliner - Nested Lists

Been using this for years! Great if you want a simple yet effective outlining app.

Love it. Once I paid for the sync with Mac option I have been using it regularly. Great for coming up with checklists that can be reused and improved on over time - e.g for travel, camping and more. Saves a lot of time and stress. Five stars if shortcuts (and behaviours) on all platforms could be configured to be like omnioutliner (which I have fallen out of love with when I found file size restrictions on my paid version, that were not there before!).

All outliners have their strengths and weaknesses, and this one has a fairly no-frills feature set but absolutely brilliant auto-syncing across devices - which is per-item rather than at document level, so even offline changes to the same outline on different devices will sync up correctly. The main limitation is that (presumably for technical reasons) it uses the same text colours for both light and dark modes, so that you can work with grey or coloured text but not black or white. This takes some getting used to, and some may find it too hard on the eyes and uncomfortable to work in to serve as a primary outliner. Even so, it remains great value and in some key respects (linespacing, iOS/desktop integration) has the edge over much pricier competitors; it's quietly become my everywhere thinking-bucket app for notes, outlines, and idea capture on whatever device is nearest.

Works well, reliable, not yet too complex from being overloaded with superfluous features. There’s a Mac OS version as well at a modest price. What’s not to like?

One star for nagging about ratings.

This is a really useful app for note and thought processing. From ideas as they come to mind, through to adding further detail at different levels to structure them, and to give manoeuvrability in placing, and re-positioning, without cut and paste. Good formatting support, and can be exported in several normal formats for submission to standard apps such as word processing. Also can import from OPML making it compatible with other apps.

I use this outliner a lot. It looks good and the user interface is easy to use (I like it that it is not overloaded with features - they just get in the way). It does pretty much what I need: easy to move things about, straightforward to highlight, etc. I use the app on iOS and MacOS. My one gripe with the iOS app is indenting and outdenting. The mechanism is not responsive enough.

This is a simple and good to use App. But unfortunately it does not support split view. This is a major draw back for me in connection with my studies.

An amazing tool I’ve used for a few years now to structure my thinking, talks, plans and even write a book
