Hell, I even built one as a 17 y/o kid here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cloudx.notes \nbut I've always wondered, what makes a notes app that can replace simple pen and paper, I know a simple app can't do that at least. I decided to rebuild it from scratch, one especially designed for the thinkers, developers, founders and engineers. Those who have the most on their mind but often fail at organizing the info.

So, I'd like to know your perspective on a few questions

1. What is your notes app? and Why?

2. Do you still often find yourself using pen and paper?

3. What is your primary(and tested) setup for productivity?

4. Do you like to have things like tasks, broken down or as a singular big task?

Simply put: you don't trust their experience in general and you don't trust that their input for this project is relevant. On top of it, it is fluffy and boils down to "make better code". As if anyone consciously wants to make bad code.

If they are setting the stage for technical decisions, but you simply do not trust them, is this something that can be improved upon? Or you just switch companies.
