An editorial reading of the saved reviews

A powerful Markdown editor with an action system for automating text operations, iCloud support, and Obsidian compatibility. Long in active development, but over the past year updates have nearly stopped, which worries regular users.

Adding to the review below. Export no longer works. Adding to the review below. There's nothing more irritating in markdown editors than auto-numbering that then fails.

My favorite way to take typed notes on my Mac is with the Obsidian app, but that app lacks a mobile counterpart; this is where Taio comes in. With Taio, I can edit the markdown files that I create in Obsidian by taking advantage of its iCloud integration.
