Hi Joplin users!

I have been using Joplin for quite some time now but had recently tried Logseq, because the workflow especially on mobile devices seemed to be much better. The features I miss in Joplin mostly boil down to

1. Defined position for the note (Daily Journal) - Which makes note taking on mobile devices a ton easier. I have so many notes created on my android phone, which got lost somewhere.
2. Linking to create “pages” - If I write down something in the Daily Journal I can add a Tag and this adds the portion to the Pages with the same name. This is really good for information retrieval

However, since I have a mixed device ecosystem and Logseq sync is not really implemented, I would prefer to switch back to Joplin. Are there any plugins, especially mobile plugins, which could help to achieve a better note and linking habit like in Logseq?

Hi @ssh !

For tagging inline, have a look at [Inline Tag Navigator](https://discourse.joplinapp.org/t/plugin-inline-tag-navigator-v1-2-2-2024-08-23/35726) (works on mobile). It was inspired to some extent by Logseq. You may then view all tagged lines / paragraphs in a panel, or in a note that is dedicated to a saved search query (a single tag, or a more complex one).

For linking while creating pages, try [Quick Links](https://discourse.joplinapp.org/t/quick-links-plugin/14214) (works on mobile). You may enable in the settings the option to `Allow new notes`. You can combine this with [Automatic backlinks](https://discourse.joplinapp.org/t/automatic-backlinks-with-manual-insert-option/13632). Ideally, you would want something like [Bidirectional Links](https://discourse.joplinapp.org/t/plugin-bidirectional-links/29866) on mobile, but it's not enabled on mobile yet (I believe it should work, if @benlau is interested).

Hi @shikuz!

Thank you for the plugins! This looks like a really promising start 😃

How do you add new notes on your mobile? I guess this was the biggest pain for and to look for alternatives.

On the desktop I used the journal plugin, couple with templates, which worked fine. But on mobile the lost notes is something which was really hard to work with
