Drafts is so good! I installed it randomly because it looked interesting and since it was free, it didn't hurt to check it out. Immediately after installing it, I fell in love and upgraded to a paid subscription.
I'm blown away by the power of the app. It's transforming my workflow. I'm constantly wishing that I could do this or that only to discover that it's already baked in or easy to add with a bit of simple scripting. I can't believe how customizable it is.
