The War of Note-Taking Apps
A look into the battle of 2021 and my personal predictions
3 min readOct 28, 2020
What an exciting year for note-taking software…
- The rise of Roam and Obsidian has been well-documented
- The growth and mainstream approach of Notion has finally arrived
- The re-emergence of Evernote is among us…
- And there’s dozens of side tools like Walling, Supernotes & more being thrown around as rapid-growth options
- Not to mention the new “must-have” of note-taking tools, bi-directional linking…
🆕 Name Swap
First of all, the name has changed.
It’s no longer “Note-Taking Apps”
Should I say “Personal Knowledge Apps”…
Probably yes.
Perfectly summarised in NessLabs piece of personal knowledge management, tools have now become much better at encapsulating more of our life.
