I've been writing about macOS for over a decade, and I'm passionate about finding the best Mac apps.
Keyboard shortcuts, notifications, and user interfaces that don't fit in can be distracting, which is the last thing you want to be thinking about when it's time to take notes.
Productivity applications that don't fit your workflow can trip you up, which is why finding an actual macOS app matters. There are plenty of great note-taking apps, but not all of them run well on a Mac.
