Features & Capabilities

Notebooks is a perpetual-license writing and organization app that stores documents as standard files, so you can export, move, and access them anytime without subscriptions or vendor lock-in.

It offers flexible writing modes—WYSIWYG formatting, plain text with a focused view, and Markdown with syntax highlighting—plus powerful organization: books and nested hierarchies, full-text search, and backlinking. Create tasks from documents, link related notes with wiki-style links, and sync across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and PC. Your data stays yours and durable with OCR, cross-device access, and long-term stability.

User Reviews

Notebooks is a mature, feature-rich notebook for Apple users that excels at deep organization and ecosystem integration, with a one-time purchase and good data portability. The main trade-offs are intermittent syncing issues across devices and some formatting/Markdown quirks. Despite these, reviewers praise reliability, responsive support, and strong cross-device workflow. It’s a solid choice for those wanting a powerful, non-subscription notebook that works well with iCloud and Markdown exports.

Pros

Robust cross-device sync via iCloud and strong Apple ecosystem integration (Mac and iPhone).
Flexible, deep organization with folders/notebooks, nested structure, sorting, and undo.
One-time purchase with no subscription and good data portability (Markdown/HTML exports; works with Dropbox).
Responsive developer and dependable customer support.
Long-standing, trusted app with years of use and proven reliability.

Cons

Sync reliability across versions and devices can be intermittent, with timeouts and cross-version syncing challenges.
Formatting/Markdown handling quirks and UI inconsistencies (bold/italic behavior affecting markers, indentation limitations, and overall formatting UX).

Recent reviews

I can’t swipe my document to another document, and I can’t make side-by-side documents either. I couldn’t even swipe document in side-by-side before as well. I am dissatisfied.

I’m going on 10+ years with Notebooks. It has been my go-to notes app and will always be. Just sophisticated enough to provide all you need. Just simple enough to not overwhelm you with all you don’t need.
