I use Notes mostly, because it's synced to my phone and I can paste images (usually screenshots) in it easily.

I made an org-mode viewer for iOS and Android. It can load from anything that supports the standard file access API (so Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.).

I'd absolutely buy this if you made it support inline LaTeX fragment rendering (as emacs does[1]). Without it, it's sadly fairly useless for me as a math student. A subset of LaTeX would be sufficient, such as that supplied by KaTeX[2]

There is a TeX package for Flutter so that might be doable.

Same. Emacs is my primary code driver during the day but for most things Notes is killer. One of Apples best apps right now.

FWIW you can set up sync to phone pretty easily, Orgzly is a org-mode client for Mobile working surprisingly well, supporting dropbox and many other backends for sync, plus both Emacs and Orgzly support pasting images. As far as I'm concerned I've set up syncthing to sync my org files between my devices.

For Android, I've found using termux to install Emacs, and then keeping a Bluetooth keyboard in my car has come in useful for impromptu note taking sessions. Or knock out a quick blog post. I keep my org folder source controlled in a private repo in Azure DevOps, which makes syncing between my devices easy enough, and have it set up to continously deploy my blog to an AWS S3 bucket.

Which app? "Notes" is rather generic term so curious which app you're using

Is this because you’d have to use iCloud otherwise and pay for storage? What about airdrop?
