Also, unlike most hybrid editors like Bear, it supports instant image sizing and respective preview.

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 Help page
Help page is still under construction.
Con No search yet
Search feature is not available at the moment. So you cannot find snippets by keywords.
