I used to use Apple Notes. I had a folder for each client and a note for each meeting or daily todo list. Everyday I'd move the list from one note to the next.

The past month I've been using zettelkasten.de/the-archive/ because the notes are saved in markdown files and tracked with git. Now I tag each client in each note because there are no folders. It also allows me to easily link notes to each other which is a pain with Apple Notes.

I used to use Apple Notes as well but it became a pain to organise and filter! The Archive is a great app – love the bi-directional linking and zettelkasten approach.

I have been developing my own replacement for Apple Notes called Supernotes – it's based around note-cards (there are no documents or folders) which make it great for daily work journal entries or meeting minutes. Would love for you to try it out and hear what you think.
