Things to consider
- There is no universally perfect note-taking app, and no note-taking app will do the work for you.
- You can use an intersection of several apps if you need to use two or more of them in combination to achieve your goals.
- However, it’s better to make a conscious effort to avoid building Frankenstein's monster of a productivity system.
- Finally, try to not keep on switching note-taking apps too often. The shiny new toy syndrome is real, and the desire to always use the “latest and greatest” will end up wasting lots of your time.
