Show HN: Plain Org, a new org mode app for iOS

Flat Habits BrainTool Org mode Logseq
  1. A habit tracker that's mindful of your time, data, and privacy
    I'd almost swap to an iPhone for access to this app! Org is amazingly powerful but as someone here commented recently, the learning curve is a brick wall! I was an emacs user for decades before getting up enough momentum to tackle org and make it useful for me. That said, I think org mode text is a much better basis for PKM and Productivity tools than the proprietary or markdown based tools that seem to be gaining in popularity. Its great to see tools like this one, plus Flat Habits[1] and LogSeq[2] join BrainTool (mine)[3] as part of an org-based ecosystem. [1] https://flathabits.com/.

  2. BrainTool is a personal information manager for your online life.
    > [3] https://braintool.org It looks really interesting. However, it asks for access to your browsing history, Google Drive, including all personal information associated with your Google account, which I think is a bit much given that I couldn't find any privacy policy, information about the author and source code.

    Highly recommend LogSeq (https://logseq.com). It started out as very Roam-inspired, but with focus on actually supporting both Org and Md. It’s quite GUI-heavy with good shortcuts support.
