alt Hacker NewsThe mobile capture gap is real and it's what kills most of these tools as daily drivers. The flow that's worked for me: Drafts (iOS) with an action configured to append to a dated inbox.md in a git repo, synced via Working Copy. The Markdown files are the source of truth; any macOS tool (Tolaria, Obsidian, whatever) reads from the same repo with no conversion step.
It's a few moving parts to set up, but the payoff is that mobile capture and desktop organization are actually the same files rather than a paste/sync step in between.

Bebop⁽¹⁾ is my preferred method. I can open it directly and capture an idea or note with one tap, or use its share sheet to capture links.
It can be configured to append to an Obsidian “Daily Note” in an iCloud vault, which works great.
No third-party services FTW.

I actually largely solved this with OpenClaw — i send stuff via telegram and it creates good notes in Tolaria, already linked to what exists and what's relevant
I send web links of tools that I want to store of resources, voice notes to be turned into written notes, etc
but I will still build a mobile version for sure!
I built something recently for myself which is based on the any device philosophy using a Telegram bot approach and like the creator of this app uses a private Github repo as the source of truth.
I use it for just collecting anything I find interesting around the web.
