Cons
Con You can't edit specific files, they must be in your notebook
Con No iOS apps for editing, only a viewer available
I'd LOVE to edit and create quiver notes on my iPad!
Con The line in focus shows a border around it which is distracting
The line in focus in the editor shows a rounded rectangular border around it, which is unappealing and distracting.
Con Much more than a simple Markdown editor
Since it's more like a note-taking app (and a note-taking app built for developers) than a Markdown editor, it may be a little excessive to use it only for its Markdown editing features.
Con Very limited as free version
Very expensive for what it does for the monthly cost it is asking for.
Con Pricing is costly
Cacher costs $8 for a month and $6 for a month (for a yearly subscription). If they'd reduce the price to $5 or $4, it would be better.
Con Free version makes everything public
Con Labels, comments and private snippets will be lost once you ended up your subscription
Once you plan to leave Cacher, you can't carry the labels and comments that you have given for the snippet.
Con Not worth it
