Note-taking apps side by side: free plans, paid prices, platforms, sync, encryption, open source, export and AI

更新于

为什么比较这些

Six note-taking apps people choose between. This is a feature table, not a ranking. Where your notes live differs the most: Obsidian and Joplin keep notes as files on your device and let you pick the sync, while Notion, Evernote, OneNote and Apple Notes keep them in their own cloud. Free plans differ a lot too: Obsidian and Joplin have no limits, OneNote and Apple Notes are free up to 5 GB of account storage, and Evernote Free stops at 50 notes on 1 device. Only Obsidian Sync and Joplin offer end-to-end encryption out of the box; Apple Notes does so only with Advanced Data Protection. The table does not show editor feel, speed or how well search works, so try the free version first.

如何衡量

Read from each product's own pricing, plan, help and download pages on the date in the references (Joplin's licence from its own GitHub repository). Prices are in US dollars before tax, with monthly and yearly billing shown as each vendor lists them; Joplin Cloud lists prices in euros only, so those are shown in euros. OneNote and Apple Notes paid tiers are the Microsoft 365 and iCloud+ storage plans they use.
