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

    Emacs org mode could work if you’re okay with tinkering a bit. There are keyboard shortcuts for check/uncheck, and you can do a lot of customization of how it renders in Emacs. Search might be a problem though.

        Emacs is actually one of the easier editors to use in my opinion. The ribbon at the top makes most functionality accessible even without knowing any of the keyboard shortcuts.

      Sorry I forgot to clarify, I’m talking about Android XD

      I updated OP to explain it

      Thanks for the tip anyway!
