While I’m working through a few ideas, I find I’m more often using the built-in Sorter. Having the pre-set location of the Slip-Box Inbox ready to go.Being able to use Drafts interim status of an idea.The convenience of having a floating window.Ultimately, when using it for my Slip-Box work, I’m finding the key differences between this method and using the built-in Sorter that DEVONthink installs are: You do need to have the pro version to be able to edit the action in order to make it work. There is some setup involved, but not much, explained in the readme. Sends it to a specific, pre-determined location in your DEVONthink database.įor something like a Slip-Box, this can be quite handy.Korm, a kind coding forum goer at the DEVONthink discourse, created a neat action that: If you have the pro version, you can create an even faster process of filing. If you have the free version, you can download and install an action that sends a note to DEVONthink. There are more than I can list, but examples could be: One of the interesting things you can do with Drafts is create “Actions”. However, I do know that it is quite popular in the productivity community. I’m still experimenting with Drafts and seeing if/how it can fit my own workflows, so I don’t know how fully onboard I am with it yet. That way, while research for example, you could read, then take a few notes, then check out a website, and take more notes without the text ever leaving the front.ĭrafts is an app that requires a subscription.

Another nicety is that you can call up a persistent floating text pane. You could enter it into Drafts and decide later as to what to do with it. For example, you might not know where an idea belongs just yet. Drafts is a text app that many use to gather their thoughts before sending them on elsewhere.
