Not for no reason users here on the forum mentioned again and again that the multi-platform approach of Joplin matters a lot to them - it is one of the main reason while users switch to Joplin. Then, when you follow the forum for a while, you also note that there is a signif disparity concerning unh…

The Android app is perfectly adequate for my needs because they are minimal: access notes when I'm away from my laptop (which isn't often), and more importantly, add short notes/thoughts that I don't want to forget before I get back to my laptop. I probably use Joplin on my phone/Kindle about 2-3 h…

While I agree with you and your findings for your use case (I am using Joplin in a similar way) the problem remains that you simply cannot know in advance when or how something on the level of the mobile app's implementations will strike back. Therefor, any use cases (%) number as suggested, cannot…

You make good points. I feel like I have no horse in this race, so I'll let those with more of a vested interested hash it out. However, I do think that it'd be good to gauge Joplin use patterns over time just so that we can see how it changes. If it were to be 50/50 PC to mobile in 5 years, then…

[image] skim1124: If it were to be 50/50 PC to mobile in 5 years But of course that will never happen with the large disparity in features and functionality between Joplin's desktop and mobile apps. People who are anywhere remotely near 50/50 desktop/mobile in note app usage take one look at …

@jb261 ... and this ("this group ... will turn around and leave") is just another way of saying what I have been trying to say initially. New features are great (say audio players, nice to have plug-ins and the like), but keys to success are flawless basics, debugging basic features (when new bugs …

You're right. I can understand why heavy mobile users (and heavy media archivers) wouldn't stay with Joplin--just as those who are heavy PC users might leave other apps for Joplin. I guess I'm saying that the Joplin community might want to count the cost before wanting an equally robust mobile app…

I'm using Joplin on PC for probably 99% of the time. Having the possibility to sync to mobile and view/edit notes is a not-too-small reason why I use Joplin, besides the fact that it's awesome and open source. But to me, it is the possibility to do so that matters (be anywhere, pull out your phone, …

Your last question is perfectly appropriate - any time - but I don't have time for it. That's why I said all the way back in my first post, I see them popping up all the time, I you are invited to use the search function and - ideally - add the links to this thread. :innocent:

As far as I am concerned, the basic flaw of the android app is the ghastly, slow, and buggy synchronisation. I have obviously had worse luck with it than most people but even when it doesn't screw up completely it is slow enough with large files that anyone used to evernote will turn and run screami…

Since the initial sync was a disaster for you (and the initial sync seems to be far and away the biggest problem with the Android app based on posts I've seen in this forum), maybe try the following: organize your notes in desktop into notebooks that are, say, < 500 notes (this is temporary, just …
