User Reviews

Joplin is loved for local-first storage, self-hosting, cross-device syncing with end-to-end encryption, strong Markdown support, and open-source flexibility. It excels for privacy-minded users who want control and plugin extensibility. However, several reviews highlight recurring syncing issues and conflicts across devices, iOS-specific limitations (no iOS web clipper, banner UI, copy/paste quirks), a dated UI with occasional crashes, and limited cloud-service support (no iCloud sync; OneDrive/2FA caveats). A powerful, privacy-conscious note app with caveats around reliability and iOS usability.

Pros

Self-hosting/local-first storage (NAS) with privacy and control.
Cross-platform syncing across devices with end-to-end encryption.
Strong Markdown support and extensibility via plugins.
Open-source and privacy-focused design offering user control and transparency.

Cons

Frequent syncing issues and conflicts across devices, sometimes leading to data loss.
iOS-specific limitations and bugs, including no iOS web clipper, copy/paste quirks, and UI banners.
Dated UI and stability problems, including crashes and keyboard glitches.
Cloud-service integration limitations (no iCloud sync; OneDrive 2FA caveat; Dropbox not compatible on iOS).

Recent reviews

Outdated UI, the notes only show titles you need to click on them for summary and the extensions allowing this don't support ios. Every other note taking app I use including native shows some of your note below the title. This should be a customizable aspect. Only people getting use out of this started elsewhere and just use the iphone app to supplement their use rather than having it be their main device.

Works perfectly, currently using S3 sync with E2EE. Just wish more plugins were allowed on iOS besides only the recommended ones. Hope it stays updated and maintained. Might even be willing to buy it if it was a one time paid app to support development better.
