Funny that all the phone versions have a hard coded UI. Isn't the point that org mode is just plain text so it's more free from? I currently use google keep. I'm not recommending it but to some extent I can use at as just a collection of synced text files.
A mobile-friendly interface that enables jotting things down quickly while on the go… (coincidentally, fully typing “- [ ] remember the milk” is clunky on mobile, switching keyboard, etc).
Also powered by plain text, so you can drop down to the details whenever you want to (including your mobile) with all the portability associated with it.
Thank you. Every time I come across some "plaintext" enthusiast who refuses to acknowledge that mobile devices are not conducive to free-form text editing of structured text files, I want to punch them in the face.
Mobile devices require context-aware, guided data entry/editing interfaces.
I beg to differ. I find google keep / apple notes to be much more useful in mobile precisely because they are free from. I can enter lists , notes, phone numbers , links, all in the same document and usually get far more info on the screen.
Conversely every fixed ux tool I've used for this fails miserably because too little data since it's wasted by ux and small non freeform fields in widget that have limited space.
Further, I can easily cut/copy/paste large sections across documents where as in most fixed ux apps I'd at best only be able to move one item at a time and at worst have to manually copy each field from each widget to each field in another widget
The only phone version I've used is beorg, but beorg lets you directly edit the plaintext if you want to. I usually don't because the hard coded UI is pretty convenient.
Orgro displays the file as "rich" text, so it is not a "hard-coded" UI; it's much closer to viewing the file as you would in Emacs.
That said, it is definitely lacking compared to Emacs: it's a viewer only and mostly doesn't interpret the file contents; you can't execute code blocks, etc.
