Just download the app make a vault. Same it in iCloud or google drive. Now use your desktop pc and copy the files over. Done and a accessible vault in your smartphone.
Note that iCloud Drive on the Mac is a bit random about when it decides it wants to sync files. I ended up abandoning that setup after too many times of being somewhere and finding my laptop never pushed up the latest version of a file.

#222Does anyone know the name of the note taking tool where pretty much everything is a bullet point, and each bullet point can expand to show sub bullet points. The website is essentially the tool itself IIRC. I've been trying to remember it for ages. I saw it in the comments for a different note taking tool on HN...

#224I like to use Obsidian on iOS and then Foam on my computer. They happen to have a lot of the same custom Markdown syntax, and I prefer using VS Code on my computer :) https://foambubble.github.io/foam/

I could not disagree more. I'm very pleased that things such as markdown exist and are being widely used. All of the tools used by 'other professions' as you say, are in some nonsense proprietary format that works in their application and theirs alone. Even something as widespread as .docx is still a third-class citizen on other applications, due to Microsoft's monopoly on it. Is Markdown perfect? No. I find it rathe…
I really don’t understand what they think we’re missing in markdown, as if most of us don’t have plenty of experience with “better “ document software. They also don’t actually explain what features or tools make that’s software “better.” Most people I know in these trades are using Google or Office suites simply because that’s what they’re the most familiar with. I’ve been through so many formats and styles of captu…

What does Obsidian offer that Foam doesn’t or vice versa? I use VSCode for writing and programming so am trying to avoid yet another tool for note taking and knowledge management.
