Last month I posted HelixNotes here and some of you asked about mobile. Version 1.2.1 ships with an Android APK. Same codebase, Rust + Tauri 2.0, no separate app. Since last post: Android support, Ollama for local AI, graph view performance improvements, wiki-link navigation, and a bunch of mobile UX polish. Direct APK download from the site. IzzyOnDroid submission in progress. AGPL-3.0, source on Codeberg.

I've given this app a go and like it. I've been on the search for a replacement to obsidian, but haven't landed on anything yet. Is built in sync on the roadmap?

I like Obsidian storing everything as markdown files that I can edit outside of the application. I'm not so much a fan of the do-it-yourself obsidian live sync because it's a fairly fragile setup and involves updating plugins and settings across multiple vaults and multiple devices.

Affine and Trillium go the database route. They are both decent (though affine handles tables poorly, while trillium's mobile PWA UI has navigation issues), but with both I have real difficulty importing an Obsidian vault keeping the folder structure and images intact.

No built-in sync planned for now. Notes are plain .md files so you can sync the folder however you want. I personally use Syncthing for this and it works great.
