G+_Joseph Cappellino Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Todo.txt? Google Keep? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Ron K Jeffries Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Keep on Keeping on. On a serious note, fargo.io, while quirky, is very interesting. Uses Dropbox as its database back end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Jeremy Baugh Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Wait, catch is shutting down?!?! Dang! Time to get all my stuff off of it. I started using Google Keep. It's fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Gary A Hanson Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Yeah I'm using Keep for quick notes, but I actually started using Catch's Spaces dealy, makes it easy to coordinate information and links with my wife for business and leisure separately in one app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_nick bowers Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 keep has about 25% of the functionality that catch has. this is a bit of a blow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Greg Milner Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 OneNote? It does have an Android app now. I tried it a while back and it wasn't too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Michael Schmidt Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Google docs. You can edit offline if need be and then sync when you're online. Or look for NoteEverything in the play store.?

G+_Paul Tobeck Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 While quite different, I'm liking Springpad alot. May end up replacing several apps, like Pocket and Keep, for all my stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_nick bowers Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 yep a second vote for springpad here - i remember using it concurrently with catch for a while but chose catch after a while. springpad is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Bradley Chasse Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I've used colornote for years. You can only access it on the app(no desktop support), so it's not ideal.. One feature I keep it for is this : I have a to do list note on my lockscreen widget. If I need to read or edit my note, I press wake button on phone and swipe left. Very fast and convenient. With the evernote widget, I couldn't set it up the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Mark Walker Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Still find windows notepad very useful. I like the F5 feature that time stamps your notes. I have the notepad file in my cloud folder that syncs to Logmein's Cubby. Then I can access my notes from my Mac, iOS or Android device. Very convenient.

G+_Q. Davis Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I used to use Catch for a good little minute. Wooooooow! That was perfect timing! I just switched to Evernote last month and haven't looked back since!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Carlos Sarthou Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nononsenseapps.notepad I use Nononsense Notes and it's great. The Android app works offline and, since it syncs with Google Tasks, you can just use a Google Tasks Chrome extension of some sort with offline support to have your notes available on the desktop. It's well worth getting the donate version, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Nick Webster Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Hang on catch is shutting down? CRAP! Google Keep just can't compare to catch and neither can Todo.txt. I guess trello is a good alternative though. Do you know if there is an export option for my current notes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Tim Ingles Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I've tried keep and don't understand why it exists or maybe I just want each note to be a separate Google doc because a lot of notes I take I want to share with people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Greg Thomson Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Google Keep is the way to go. It's one of the core apps from Jelly Bean 4.3 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.keep Spring Pad looks good too.?
