Ask HN: Seamless sync of notes between Linux, macOS, iOS

5 points by ParallelThread 3 years ago · 7 comments · 1 min read


Are there any services that provide syncing of notes between phones and computers (multiple os'es)? I use Notes app on my phone but cannot access it easily on my linux machine (I can via a web browser, but would like to edit natively).

Obsidian + Sync (for $8/mo)

If you don't want to pay, use git sync. Personally I think it's decent, have to deal a lot with merge conflicts (I have 3 devices), and using git on iOS is cumbersome.

Or, you can use the LiveSync add-on (need to setup your own CouchDB instance for it).

LiveSync is pretty good, real time sync is nice, but I rarely had a conflict since switching to it.

I recommend Standard Notes https://standardnotes.com/.

You can access the notes from your phone and computer. The app is available for Linux, macOS, and Windows. The mobile apps is also available.

You can write notes offline. It will sync automatically when you are connected to the internet.

Depending on what you want to do, Obsidian with GitHub might do the trick.
