Agree with the other comments about adding more to your landing page. There are tons of notes apps out there but yours is actually a very cool take. If it wasn't for the YouTube videos linked from this thread, I wouldn't have understood what you have built at all. I imagine any of the following would be quite helpful.

- Condense your video to < 1min and embed it on your landing page.

- Use your copy from these tweets alongside relevant screenshots: https://twitter.com/iamguico/status/1646396960360808449

I probably wouldn't use it personally since I'm happy with Obsidian and I can choose how the data is synced, but I can see how your UX could make sense for many people.

Hey! Thanks a lot for the effort to put this answer together. Totally see your point.

I was going with the assumption that you "better show than tell". So, by having a landing page with so little info is intentional in the hope that it will lead to more downloads.

So far about 20% of all visitors download the app, which I think is a high number. But I can see how that won't scale.

Again, thanks a lot for the feedback

That sounds really impressive and if it's working for you just ignore us. Nice job! Would be fun to follow your progress.
