![]() ![]() One last thing: I like it that the developer included an "Uninstall" command in the menu. Why isn't Growly Write here on MacUpdate? Seems to be a nice app too… The app itself is very good UI design, rock stable, fast… Seems there is (was) lots of talent at Microsoft – the developer worked 10 years for MS – it says quite a lot about MS management, if they are not able to keep such good developers (and those devs go afterwards mac only development :-) If you don't like the app's icon, just replace it with a clipart of your choice. There's one thing I'd like to add: for those who don't like the appearance of the app, it can be customised: in the Preferences, just switch from "fun" to "serious" window layout, and it looks much more like your common mac app. ![]() OK, reading the other comments/reviews, this isn't news: Growly Notes is a great app. But I find Growly Notes the most capable for general purpose notes because it is easy to apply formats and one can drag and drop both text and objects with ease. I use Sidenote for hot short-term items (it is opened by mousing over to the side of the screen), and TextWrangler for coding. I use Evernote because it can automatically sync with File-This-Fetch for managing financial records. Incidentally, though this is my primary notes app, I DO use other note-taking apps as well for special purposes. But, I have looked hard in the past and I really like this app. If there were a freeware app that came close to doing all this app does, I would not have upgraded. Mostly this meant reading several sections of the extremely well-written docs as opposed to either scanning or ignoring them which is what I usually am able to do. The ways of handling formats (e.g., bullet lists, fonts, highlights, special symbols, indentation, ruler, styles) has changed from ver 1. The developer clearly put a lot of thought into every aspect of this.įor me there was a learning curve to understand all the capabilities that can be accessed via the tabbed sidebar. Growly Notes ver 2 is no longer free but is actually much better. Growly Notes ver 1 was the best note-taking app I had found, and I tried many of them. ![]()
