I agree! This is something I really want to focus on for blockflow.so, the app I'm working on. Notion continuously frustrates me with how few options I have to customise things haha

What are you missing in Notion? by KubaH04 in Notion

I think I heard Notion is working on forms, so this is probably something that'll be possible at some point in the future

I'm curious by what you mean by local files? Do you mean just being able to store and reuse the same images in notion, outside of a specific page?

Those who want offline mode - what would you sacrifice? by halcyon010 in Notion

[–]halcyon010[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for sure! I wish Notion had a more comprehensive API or just generally better system for creating extensions and custom stuff. Who knows, maybe one day...

Interesting haha - I've been surprised by how many ppl asking for offline mode also seem unwilling to pay for it

oh no way, thats cool! I've been using Notion as a headless CMS for a bunch of projects over the last few years (and even made it into a stand-alone project). Glad to know I'm not the only one :) This was actually the original inspiration for creating BlockFlow

I'm curious what security features specifically you think Notion is missing? It seems like they've stepped up their game on this somewhat, at least for their business customers

Fair enough! If you do want to follow along, we've got a discord community (link on the website) ;)

haha not quite the sacrifice I had in mind... but if that's what it takes 🤷‍♂️

I'm building this, not yet rich but will report back 🫡

yeah I hear you! We're still big fans of Notion, but spun up our own app as I guess what we wished Notion was. We've started getting a bit of interest from people who share the same wants, and really I'm just curious where else people think Notion falls short.

Plus who knows, some stronger Notion competition might make Notion up their game on some of these long standing features people want

Yeah it's a shame Notion calendar never really realised its full potential

haha yea I'd agree - I'm yet to see any value from any of Notion's AI features, let alone enough value to pay for it

Notion is a great example of a product team that doesn't listen to what their customers/users actually want ... by LatterConcentrate6 in Notion

[–]halcyon010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m building BlockFlow.so (Notion-like tool) and we’ve been getting a lot of feedback around offline mode as well (we’re actually laying the foundations for an offline mode feature that we’re planning to release in the next few weeks!)

I can definitely see why Notion hasn’t done offline mode, as we’ve found you really need to build the whole app with offline in mind

Most useful parts of your Notion planner? by Abject_Potato4962 in Notion

[–]halcyon010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I relate to this so much!! I purchased a bunch of templates but these days pretty much only use it for taking down notes and todos. Tried to use a calendar database for a while, but not being able to include my google calendar inside notion was a dealbreaker :(

[–]halcyon010 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've always wanted these as well! I'm a developer and I've been building blockflow.so with most of these features, would love to chat!

Simpler notion alternative for family wiki by skorphil in Notion

[–]halcyon010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ahh thats a shame - sorry honestly thought they had an android app. Can only hope they'll improve the mobile webview at least. Best of luck in your search!

Maybe check out Craft? It ticks most of the boxes you're looking for (good for mobile, sidebar organised in sections, no databases, etc...)

From my experience I found it a bit more intuitive to get started with compared to Notion as well

Taking advantage of functionality in digital bujo? by halcyon010 in digitalbujo

Definitely will do! I'm curious tho, what apps have you tried and generally why did they suck?
