Awesome Sync with the desktop app

The versatility of the desktop app that I use on my PC is now extended with this iOS app. I use Drafts to enter information and it then syncs with my desktop version of Dynalist. No it is not was easy to use as the desktop app. However, if you use drafts for new entries you'll understand how useful this app can be. Used in this manner, it makes taking notes easy, anytime and anyplace.

Best outliner, tool for thought

I tried all proclivity / note-taking apps but nothing came close to Dynalist. It’s not ideal, it has many problems and areas for improvement. Still, keeping in mind fast and reliable iOS app + fast desktop app + web clippers + iOS share extension + API + great outliner and features (like move item with a shortcut, quick full text search, global quick add shortcut, email to Dynalist, backlinks, etc), it’s my favorite productivity app. For me it works better than Roam Research, Obsidian, Notion, Evernote and other similar apps. Thank you dev team, you are great and please don’t abandon this beautiful product!Now about features I miss:- WYSIWYG editor. It’ll make backlinks, images, formatting prettier and will improve speed of working with Dynalist- Sidebar or multiple windows for desktop app. Loved it in Roam. That really gives a boost to productivity- Editable mind map view- Kanban view (WorkFlowy )- Ability to mirror blocks (WorkFlowy )- Team collaboration and management. This one would be huge!

Digital bullet journal

It took me what felt like forever to find a digital solution to my work bullet journal. In the current work from home status, with a much smaller workspace- keeping my bullet journal out to mark my notes and tasks in the daily log just wasn’t working. Every app/website mentioned as a bullet journal alternative didn’t have what I needed - the ability to simply make a billeted Daily Log. This is that solution. It has gone further too- tagging is perfect for my staff meetings. When I need to document I simply tag and now it’s all searchable. Perfect for an “index” alternative.

Like the app but needs an update

I can barely type in my lists these days in the app on my iPhone 7. It’s like 6 second delay when I type a letter to it appearing on the screen and it is really annoying when trying to make a grocery list quickly. Hope y’all update the app, would pay for a subscription if you do more updates!

Best outliner app but could be more iOS friendly

Dynalist is the best outliner app on the desktop and this is a decent iOS companion. It suffers from not being a native app, having slow sync, and missing some features available on the web app. Still, it is a reliable companion for those who use the web app and it keeps improving.

Crashfest

I really like the desktop and web platforms for dynalist but the ios version simply doesn't provide the same experience. It crashes on me almost every other time I open the app. It's so frustrating. I was hoping the developers would come out with a fix but it's been months now and it doesn't seem to be getting any better. I'm ready to jump ship to another note taking alternative like bear notes.

Crashes. No longer supported.

If you’re doing data storage, don’t use this app. It has documented memory issues for documents exceeding a few hundred lines. I wish I had know this a year ago. I have used it heavily for my daily journal, work and research notes. But suddenly it hang/refresh/crashes every 10-15 seconds, even on iphone 15 and above. It won’t save new content. Searches hang and freeze, even on ipads. On the support page they say the app was not built for data storage and they no will longer update it because they are focusing on another app they sell.

This One Wins

Is is perfect? No, but it *is* the best app I have tried (and I have tried them all) for organizing your writing. Dynalist in split screen with Ulysses or iA Writer is, without any real competition, the best writing experience on the iPad.So, five stars. Not because there's nothing to improve, but because it's the best we've got, and if more people use it, maybe the developers will be able to spend time making this feel like an iOS app and a little less like a ported website. (Until then, the one bug which slowed me down at first has an easy fix : if you have it open with split screen and find the cursor getting captured by the OTHER app and not returning to Dynalist, use Command + Tab on your keyboard to switch back to the app.) Dynalist Devs, thank you so much for making a truly useful app. If future versions felt a little less like a UI kit and a little more like Bear ... that would be wonderful, but take your time. This thing is worth getting right.

Rated for deceptive advertising

This app promises that you can import from other apps into it, but from what I can tell, that’s only if you pay for an upgrade, which they didn’t specify in the app notes or description. I never would’ve started using this service if they’d been up front with their potential customers. This is bad policy. If you have to pay for a feature, say so up front. I’m starting to wonder if importing from WorkFlowy (which you can only do from the website to start with) is free either.

Huge potential, but...

UI on iOS needs much improvement. Specifically, THEE most important fundamental UI feature would be the ability to move a list item via tap and hold in order to reorganize list information. This is an advertised feature but it is currently not functioning (at all)—app recognizes tap and hold, but doesn’t actually move the item at all to the intended location in the list. Therefore, this app is useless when it comes to organizing information via iOS, rendering all other powerful features also negligible.Also, there is very little iOS support for this app. For instance, the introduction documentation, in the iOS app, is clearly the same introduction for the desktop version. The problem is, it refers to UI features that are only present on the desktop.
