Pro Publish and share notes
Publish notes to the web (with configurable URLs) or share notes with collaborators.
Pro Offline-first
Fully functional offline mode.
Pro Omniplatform
Can be installed on macOS, Linux, Windows (via PWA), iOS and Android.
Pro Task/calendar syncing (Google Calendar & Outlook)
Any task with a date/time assigned to it will be exported to calendars optionally connected. Completing the task removes it from calendar.
Pro Multi-level tagging (personal/hobbies/bike-rides) to keep organized
Any note can be assigned as many deeply nested tags as desired. The tag hierarchy can be navigated, filtered on tasks or notes.
Pro Backlinking & networked note references
Amplenote supports the same [[]] syntax popular in Roam to create a link to an existing note. Every linked note has a tab with all the references into that note.
Pro Automatically sorted task list
Every task can be marked as "Urgent" or "Important," along with the time it's due. This makes it possible for the software to automatically sort your todo list in a way that makes sense, and save you time of deciding what to work on first every day.
Cons
Con Inconsistent sorting when printing
You can start your tests online, but when you print it comes out differently.
Con Can print calendar or tasks but not both
If you want to see your day, you can see both your tasks and your meetings online. However, you cannot print it altogether as shown online. You have to print two separate things.
Con Not end-to-end encrypted
