Craft review

Craft is for iPad owners who type and want notes that look like finished documents. Pages support Markdown and keyboard shortcuts, which pairs well with a Magic Keyboard, and documents can be shared by link or published to the web. Craft has built-in tasks with target dates, due dates and reminders, Daily Notes with a calendar view, and an AI Assistant that searches and answers questions about your own content. Everything works offline and syncs when you reconnect. The free plan is usable but capped at 1,500 blocks, 1 GB of storage and 25 MB uploads, with 7 days of version history. Plus removes those caps and is listed on the US App Store at $9.99 per month or $95.99 per year, which is more than most apps here. Craft is typed-first: the App Store description focuses on writing and tasks rather than Apple Pencil handwriting.
