Android notes app with markdown support (jlai.lu)

Hello all,

I'm looking for an alternative to my current notes app notally. It's a great app but I am only able to make to-do lists or plain text notes, and I can't combine both (like plain text with check boxes sometimes). I would like to automate some notes too so I think app with markdown support will allow me to do both.

What I'm looking for :

  • FOSS
  • Markdown support
  • Good looking with tiling view
  • SIMPLE, I already have Joplin for work purpose but it's too heavy, I want an app that opens instantly like google notes or apple notes (or notally lol).

Do you have some recommendations ?

Thanks a lot

I mean, it takes only 3 seconds to open lol but it feels like it's not designed to take notes on-the-go like groceries lists.
