“It lets you create multiple types of notes, reminders, and alarms, all of which can be synced. The app also includes a web clipper too, but in our opinion, Joplin’s best feature is the built-in end-to-end encryption for keeping your notes private.”

“Joplin is single handedly the best pick for an open-source note-taking app, making it an Editors' Choice winner for that category. Unlike some open-source tools, which are incredibly difficult to use, Joplin is surprisingly user friendly, even in setting up storage and syncing.”
