Hello everyone and welcome back to another video in today's video. We are diving into Standard notes we're looking at the extended edition
That's the premium version of standard notes
we're going to be over viewing some of the features some of the benefits the pricing as well as
Announcing a giveaway near the end of this video for you to win it stand in those extensions
So guys feel free to stay tuned for this video. I'm looking forward to diving into standard
So guys as you can imagine we reviewed Stanley notes a couple of weeks ago it was great to actually dive into an application
I did compare it a lot to Evernote in that video
But again, I don't think it's that much of an Evernote competitor to some extent
It is a note taker in essence
It will allow you to do this similar expenses note taker but the actual extend Edition which we're reviewing today, which is the Premium Edition
Actually does feel a lot closer to Evernote than the basic version does now just a little bit of recap
It's available pretty much on every device
So you've got it on web my Mac Windows and iOS and Android so you're gonna get it pretty much everywhere
which is great and the application really focuses on privacy versus
Necessarily going much further in your sort of image experience, etc
Because obviously once you add attachments it adds complexity to the encryption levels, of course
You can still win crypt through there. And that's what some of the standard note features does offer
So as you can imagine we'll be reviewing the pro version today will giving you the pricing there at the end
So let's dive in. So here we are. It looks probably a lot different to what you saw last time
Mainly because this has a few of the extensions already installed
First thing I want to do is go down to the account in the left hand corner
You can still access all of your information there
You've also got two new areas the areas for password lock so you can actually get the passcode lock
Using your actual device say for example
If you wanted to lock it using there you can do so and also data backups either encrypted or decrypted
You can download a backup to your desktop straightaway and also import one
They also gets until email automatically wet as well
And if you wanted to it can even send to drop Google Drive and onedrive now. There are a few
27 to be specific core extensions they can be accessed down here
We'll be going through some of the ones that I've installed some of the repository. That's all accessible there
But as you can imagine there's a range of themes and editors and actual components
You can install to improve your experience. Now a few things that are notable is that it does have unlimited file attachment encryption
So you can upload directly into Dropbox Google Drive or web dev servers
you can also use some of the revision history to go back and
Restore versions which is very accessible and you've also got two-step authentication which will be available for all of your devices
Which is mad?
I think because once you add that layer including the passcode and the encryption that you've already got
It will really add a huge level of security to your application. So let's start by talking a little bit about themes
I think themes are a great starting point. They're very basic but as you can imagine not
As complex as some of the other stuff we'll be talking about here
I've got the midnight theme installed and it does look a lot different to what it does in their standards free edition
We talked about so you can click it and activate it here
these extensions are almost like Chrome extensions you add them and you once you've got them you can just play around with them and
You have to install them. That's something that is notable
So here are the themes here are the bonus seems down here
You obviously have got here midnight installed which is like a dark mode, but you can install other ones
so for example, this one's focus and if I click off you can see focus is
Sort of like a pinky purple
And a good way to view it
so if you ever want to you can uninstall them or you can activate them and obviously switch between the two and
Each one each time will be activated differently
Now if I click a titanium I wanted to store that I can do that too. There are a couple more like the Torah
solarized dark
Dynamic, which actually isn't a theme it's part of the other element
now as you can imagine
Those are some of the basic themes and you get and you can switch between the two or three depending on how many you want
But themes are broken into their own section really accessible. So moving on to the components. I know stuff
I've installed a couple of components that good starting points. You can see their extensions is already installed
That's something that allows you to access this page here the report
Repository and you can see up here as well
I've got folders installed so I can start beginning to create folders. If I deactivate that it simply goes back to tags
but if I wanted to create folders again and
Coordinated out up there I can do I can use cloud link to encrypt some of the data that I've already got
Either through note history
so it can install that one and that has been successfully installed or daily email backups so that can be really easy or
Anything that you backup can go to Dropbox Google Drive or or onedrive as well
You have to set them up separately
Now if I wanted to I could set up the quick tanks as well, which I've already done
You can see at the top the tags are accessible here
So if I wanted add checklists really easily so quick tags accessible up there. I can open a batch manager as well
so if I want to edit some actions that I've got running
Which will demonstrate a bit later notes. So for example, I want to bulk. Delete some notes
I could easily do that or even bulk delete server extensions or components themes tags and
Editors, which is really cool
Now we're talking about editors and this is really doubles up your experience and sort of makes it a bit more interactive
Now what we I think we covered previously the editor looked very much like this. This was a plain editor
You didn't couldn't get any more editors in that outside of it
But you can get tons of editors and we'll be demoing a few here
So this is the plus editor and looks a lot like Evernote you can change the font the size
all of the lovely stuff like bold italic as well as an
Unordered list as well as tables to tables are really easy to use as well
And of course you can you do all the sort of table you stuff you would
you can upload pictures and videos as long as they are encrypted and
You can see all of the lovely stuff in sort of full bleed
Which is really easy to do now if you want to set I want to see you default you can you can switch to for?
example markdown or simple task editor
so for example
You could you could move you could set a list here
and then if you wanted to turn them all into
Tasks you could do so here and you have open tasks and completed tasks here
Say for example, if I complete in that one that would move down to completed. So it's a nice way to actually organize your
Actions and activities, but if I would just wanted to keep it really simple
I'd go back to this view here now
Editing still works very much the same and you can do all of them have to be stuff
Then you want to you can go to session history
and if you want to go back and actually go to the start of what we had you can restore a copy or
Restore as a copy of that addition, which is very easy to do now options
You can access options if I just click off the session history. You can see that you can lock the page
you can delete it and you can change the font - as well as
Add spell check or check the margin resizes. So it's very advanced like I would say this is more
Happy than it is sort of like
basic, so if you want to add any more editors
you could have for example add a simple markdown editor an advanced markdown editor code editor a
simple task editor which we demoed minimal editor fancy markdown editor
Plus editor which we got Vimy deter some of these I haven't heard of and that's pretty much all you can access and in terms
of
Components you can add so we added quick tanks
but you can add an action bar which gives you the ability to see all of the
Information on the current note, you're working on a github push
We are we have the folders activated already, but you can also add a no distraction filter
so a theme that focuses only on the work at hand now you have to install
two-step authentication through the manager and the file storage for example cloud link and
Prove a file safe. So this is where the encrypted
Files actually come in you have to actually activate it through here though
I wouldn't really go for this editor if this was go to one
I think I'm much more comfortable with something a bit easier this but if it's something that you are very keen on and interested on
especially for some of the themes I can see a lot of developers or programmers using this one and
Especially some of the lot of the editing functions if you move between editors like Vance markdown or simple markdown
You're gonna love this
now if you wondering about pricing
this
application doesn't come as cheap as you think the monthly plan is nine dollars 99 and if you're paying for a monthly it's gonna really
add up but again, you can move to the yearly plan which is
$49.99 that's 75% off apparently according to the expanded package
They're able to offer a hundred percent refund within 30 days of your purchase
If you try and decide it's not for you
There were a couple of things. I would like to notably mention about this application is it's available on all devices
the free package does include the
aes-256
Integration with encryption, which is great and has sync web access and offline
The experience is impressive if you're a basic user
So if you just want a simple note sort of experience that no ticket is developed by WordPress
That's gonna be this is gonna be the perfect experience for you
I would say it's much more personalized for developers programmers and markdown writers and it's a really custom
Note-taker than your if you're willing to invest in it then this is the application for you
