Quiver - take better notes App Reviews

This app is so great and I use it all the time for all my school programming notes etc. My only qualm is with "Pretty Print" no matter what language I try it in, it never makes my code "pretty". It just compacts everything together deleting any spaces and new lines. Which is still cool, but maybe consider not calling it "Pretty Print" and something more like "Compact Code". Another qualm: Swift syntax highlighting doesnt function quite as it should. Ive noticed incorrect syntax highlighting for various function and operator code, as well as the following: - switch cases: doesnt indent properly, doesnt highlight correctly when using intervals as switch case values Keep up the great work!

Quiver has displaced Evernote & Outline and earned a spot in my daily arsernal – its now an essential part of my ecosystem. I use it to capture everything from programming snippets in a dozen different languages to documents/reviews I am writing, output from apps Im testing & random snippets from articles on the web that I dont want to lose track of. Quivers support for cell styles and multiple cells within a document is the killer feature. It fills the gap that I hit with every other note-taking/capturing/indexing solution Ive tried. A good amount of the information I want to capture is either structured markup or some kind of code. Quivers native support for both, along with built-in highlighting and formatting, make it a no-brainer for me. Its the lowest-friction option Ive found when you want the flexibility of having things "look nice" without having to get distracted by WYSIWYG if you dont care. I dont use Quivers built-in support for syncing, so I have no idea if that is well-built or not. For the content Im storing, I prefer the simplicity of not having to worry about whether every link in the chain of my data being mirrored through the cloud to various other devices is rock-solid. Id happily have paid twice the $10 the author asked – its that well-designed. So far I havent hit any bugs – no crashes, no lost/corrupt data or issues when applying upgrades.

I love using this application. This is another application I would say is worth the moeny in getting.

I only have one issue with this program. I would love a companion iPad version that syncs. Otherwise I think it is great. I am a beginner programer teaching myself and I always take notes when learning somenting new. I was using Evernote - my defalult note place, and still is for everything else - but the code highlighting and different cells in each note make this a brease and a joy to take note is for programming languages. Please keep it up. I love this app.

I know this app does SO much more than I’m currently using it for, but it’s really well worth the cost (for me anyway) to simply have something that helps me keep all my code snippets organized intelligently. It has so many features but the ones that are most important to me are the syntax highlighting, the tagging, the folder (‘notebook’) organization, and the ability to search through all my snippets. I was previously using CodeCollector Pro but sadly that app has lost it’s way……Quiver is an excellent replacement that actually does so much more than CodeCollector Pro and for a better price. What I’d like to see in future updates of Quiver is maybe some XML support for importing (CCP will export to XML or plain text, but Quiver does not import using XML so plain text it was, and that imported my whole CCP library as 1 entry….sigh…..so I had to manually copy & paste all of my snippets from CCP to Quiver, a laborious process but I’m happy to have a better App now) and the ability to add more than one text cell so I can store notes separate from the Code without affecting the ’title’ of the snippet (Or maybe a ’title’ field that is separate from the text cell?). All in all a really great app.

I’ve been searching for a tool like this for a long time. It basically combines my favorite parts of Evernote, nvALT, and Ulysses into a single, open-source heavy note management tool. I’m not a programmer, but this is now my note management tool of choice. Notebook organization, tags, open format (JSON), solid performance, UI customization, syntax highlighting, Markdown preview, export options, import options (including Evernote!), in-line images, etc. made me ditch all my previous tools and migrate over to Quiver. It took me less than five minutes to migrate all my hundreds of text notes and hundreds of Evernote notes all into Quiver, with titles, dates, tags, formatting, attachments, etc. all in tact. This was the smoothest tool transition I’ve ever had, frankly. I’m now using Quiver as my go-to note management app for home and work. And that’s even without a web interface or a corresponding iOS app (yet, hopefully). It’s just that much better than everything I’ve been trying to use across Mac, Windows (for work), and the cloud for the past couple years. Fabulous work on this. I might even learn to code just to use more of this great tool.

I’d always wished Evernote allowed proper code snippets and such, this does an excellent job filling that gap and more.

I have - for the longest time - looked for the ability to keep my run logs and troubleshooting notes somewhere. I wanted Markdown, and I wanted something that could treat code and log entries like code and log entries, not just any other text. The ability to format Markdown was also a huge plus. I use this app to track all of my production issue troubleshooting, all production release and maintenance items, for run logs of scripts, and for whenever I have to do deep code dives. This tool is critical ot my own workflow now.

Quiver is BY FAR the greatest snippet-management utility out there. It is so great, in fact, that I duplicated the app for my content-management needs.

I don’t think any software is actually perfect, but this is about as close as I have ever seen. There is no waste at all. Nothing unnecessary. Everything makes perfect sense, and it does exactly what you’d expect it to. As a notes geek, I’ve tried many. I dealt with Together, and get through it because of the quick note shortcut. I moved to Evernote because it was free. Now, I have shed all the bloated and unnecessary cruft to get to Quiver. It’s clean, fast, and most importantly has a “cell” structure in the notes that handle CODE. That was enough to make me switch, and then I found out it has a really slick presentation mode, tagging, and the ability to be custom themed as well. To top it all off, I was willing to deal with just text importing, but sure enough, it imports from Evernote and has excellent export options. Grab the demo, try it out, and you too will find it a very refreshing experience.

The app is awesome and the developer is listening to the user suggestion to make it even better. Reccomended to every developer (much better than evernote)

Extremely satisfied with this purchase. This is exactly what I needed to save my development best practices and documentation. A few things I’d love to see in next releases / in the future: - Add a description field to notes and add an “Extended Style” for Note List that shows at least the title and description of each note. - Adapt the background and text/stroke color of diagrams to the colors of the theme. - An iOS App that syncs with this app.

Quando vc tentar restaurar um backup feito pelo quiver, voce vera que falta muita coisa, ai é tarde, voce perdeu muitas informações, enquanto não utilizar o iCloud, não é seguro When u try to restore a backup made by the quiver, you will see that lack much, alas too late, you missed a lot of information, Until you use iCloud, is not safe

This is one awesome app! It’s the app every programmer was waiting for! Way better then competitors like Evernote or anything else! Go for it! :)

I really like to use Quiver in my daily workflow. If the dev continues updating Quiver (over 4 months since the last update) it will get 5 stars.

The software ist very useful and has quite a lot of features. But the developer does not want to include features that has been announced to him by email or webpage. For example the possibility the feature to have superscript or subscript formatting to write C6H12OH correctly or to write X^2 is not possible. It is a pitty that nobody is allowed to contribute for an improvement.

There is no automatic spellchecking in Markdown as far as I know and that is a real showstopper for me. It is not my primarily concern that it does not exists yet, but the fear that it never will, because how the cells are implemented. Besides that the App has some really nice ideas.

The application wide macros newcommand do not seem to work at all. Really annoying when you want to shorten your LaTeX code. For the exported PDF it would be great to have a PDF where one can copy out code without the line numbers (nice to have).

So far this app is really awesome, one can mix code with explanations with latex etc. all the alternatives I tried were either last updated a few years ago or too basic and annoying. Additionally the developer is very responsive and open to suggestions that make sense.

This does everything I ever wanted from a coder’s notebook: - open format storage (no database) - support for MD - support for images in notes - inter-note links - easy version control - sharing - export to PDF andf HTML - tagging - syntax support for pretty much everything - useful search - combine multiple languages in single note Added benefit - LaTeX support. Awesome. Thanks. Worth every cent.
