Wait what... Drafts has been around for 13 years. It's literally older than Product Hunt itself. It's an incredibly powerful app with a massive community. Unlike most of the abandonware that sits on here, Drafts is on Version 31.1.1 So yeah - You should use it. And if this is the first you're hearing of it then you might want to get out of your Product Hunt comfort zone a little bit.

@chrismessina Weird or not, it's how I found about Drafts. Great hunt, congrats for the PH launch.

Best note taking app, support a huge plug-in and scripts, this app helps one get a lot done on the iPad (or iPhone) that wouldn't be possible otherwise---even the free version. Paying a subscription has been worth it too. You just must try it to see how it might be useful to you personally and if that justifies the price from free!

Definitely more than just a note taking app! It’s my global inbox for anything from quick thoughts, tasks, to emails and meeting notes, and using the plugin/automation ecosystem I can route any writing in drafts to the appropriate app, even processing the text along the way.

Drafts is my most used app, hands down. Low cost of entry, with so many options for developing your own workflows and integrations with other apps that it's worth every penny. It's a native app that works well with Apple standards (Reminders, Calendars etc) allowing it to operate as a hub for all of your doing and thinking, but it can just as easily serve as a starting point for pushing quickly captured items into other systems/apps. Drafts has been a game-changer for the way I work/write/think/research/etc— I'm glad it exists!

Powerful app that I use every day, but it doesn't really have a distraction-free mode, not liked Focused or Ulysses, Focus, iA Writer, Byword, Calmly and on and on. I wish it did.

Truly can't believe that Drafts and Recut were #2 and #1 on the same day when both have been around
