  • My NotationalVelocity (Mac) / SimpleNote (iOS) combo has last data too many times now to continue. Anyone have thoughts on alternatives? 22:57:34
  • One note I was looking for was not present at all on either Mac, my iPhone had a copy from June, my iPad a copy from early August. 22:58:44
  • Pretty sure I made changes in late Aug that are lost. Even if not, it should be the same version everywhere. Not missing or old. 23:00:34
  • If all four places showed same Aug version, I would think maybe that was really the last edit. Missing copies and June copy make me doubt. 23:01:23
  • Anyway, suggestions for alternatives welcome. Not the first data loss. I use this all the time and need the functionality. But reliable. 23:02:23
  • I've never liked Evernote the times I have tried it, but maybe I will give it another shot… not quite what I want, but… 23:05:25
  • What I really want is: Text only notes (don't need rich text / pics / etc), Good syncing between devices (Mac/iOS), good full text search. 23:10:29
