Cons

Limited features compared to the full Dynalist app, such as no auto-completion of tags and visual feedback.
Lacks tagging support and the ability to add timestamps to captured notes.
Can fail silently if the user is not logged in or if no inbox is set, leading to a poor first-time experience.

Most mentioned

Desire for additional features like tagging support and timestamp options.

User reviews

Bah, this just "dumbifies" the whole note taking experience of dynalist. It's way too limited compared to the real dynalist: no auto-completion of tags, no visual feedback of any kind (formatting, etc), no possibility to glance at your "second brain" to smartly & accurately note down things. It really just forces you into a "create an inbox spot and dump info in there". I much rather like the "Clip To Dynalist" way! Why create a botched / overly basic tool when dynalist itself has all you need to take smart notes ? Or am I missing something ? If so, please educate me... ;-)
