Hi.

Are there any similar alternatives to Notewise or Goodnotes? It's for taking notes on a tablet.

Thank you

I took a look at Logseq, and probably switching from Obsidian to that.

Both are great if you’ve got a keyboard or can use one, but they aren’t quite the same usecase as GoodNotes. GoodNotes is more a PDF annotation software but with bell and whistles added in that make it more functional as a digital notebook, with document scanning and web collaboration tacked on as well.

I’ve been looking for a suitable replacement for 3 years but everything I’ve tried has been short of the mark.

What's with the weird android permissions it needs? Full file access?

You can see a discussion here - basically handicapped by Android permissions until further work is done

Interesting, hope they can figure something out.

Why do you want to give up Obsidian?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Actually never did, tried Logseq and found that the sweet spot of being to lazy and having what I need in obsidian made me stick with it
