You just helped me decide on a New Years Resolution, to become a better writer. Can’t help you with Apple products.
My hand writing is all done in a pocket notebook, a bullet journal scratch pad. The notebook and phone have been every day carry items for a couple years now.
My work flow is more of a circle back around with in multiple systems. Using markdown has been an improvement in my work flow as my notes get edited in multiple systems. I use multiple systems as no one tool does it all.
This comment will be pasted in AmpleNote to become a task. Who knows what tools I will use and what it will become.
