Hello! I’m still not satisfied with my note taking app. I tried dozen of them, read tons of lists on random blogs on the internet, without any success. I’ll try to ask you then.

I’m looking for a note taking app with just this 3 features:

  • richtext/WYSIWYG (i don’t want to write plain text and then press a button to see it rendered)
  • it has to support CHECKBOXES! Most of the apps I tried does not support them, or supported them only if all the note was a checklist. I don’t want a checklist, I want a note where I can put some checkbox inside!
  • FOSS and active

The one I’m currently using is obsidian, but it’s not FOSS and it feels very overcomplicated for a simple note apps.

Any suggestion is welcome!

EDIT: forgot to mention, I’m talking about Android XD

    I downloaded the fdroid app but… I’m not able to use checkboxes. If I type

    - something
    

    it is not converted into a bullet list

    - [ ] something
    [ ] something
    [] something
    

    are not converted to checklists
    and if I click on the checklist icon in the toolbar LATER appears instead of a checkbox… am I missing something?

      In the block, the first word should be TODO Then when you click off it, it adds a checkbox at the start

      Everything is already a bullet list, that’s the logseq design, so if you also want numbering then use the command key / and search for numbering

      Hope that helps!
