Supernotes review

Supernotes is a note-taking app built around digital notecards. Instead of treating every note as a long document, it gives you cards for ideas, records, tasks, and lists, then lets you organize those cards into hierarchies. You can search, filter, and sort them as the collection grows.

Cards can include tables, images, checklists, emojis, and math equations. You can link cards together and view their relationships in a 2D or 3D graph. Shared cards support real-time reading, editing, and commenting, while the app also offers AI tools for proofreading and organizing ideas.

For moving work in or out, Supernotes supports importing Markdown notes and generating printable PDFs from Markdown. The Starter plan lists mobile, desktop, and web apps, plus offline card creation and editing. Supernotes is therefore part note archive, part lightweight planning space; whether that structure suits you depends on how you prefer to capture information.

The card format gives Supernotes a clear point of view. Small, linkable notes can be easier to sort and reuse than one long document, especially if you want to connect ideas, tasks, and reference material. Hierarchies, filters, search, and sorting provide several ways to find cards, while the graph view gives linked notes a visual map.

Cards are not limited to plain text: the product supports tables, images, checklists, math equations, and emojis. Shared cards can be read, edited, and commented on in real time, making the format useful for collaborative notes as well as personal knowledge management. The Starter plan also includes offline creation and editing, and lists fast sync across devices.

Some Reddit users describe fitting Supernotes into personal planning and PKM workflows, and one user specifically praises its Linux experience across a mixed-device setup. Those are individual reports, not a guarantee of fit. The paid Unlimited plan lists AI proofreading and organization, a full API and integrations, and priority support. Markdown import and PDF export also give users a route to bring notes in or produce printable copies.

The main hard limit is the free plan: Starter includes 100 cards. That is enough to try the card system, but it may be a poor fit if you expect to build a large archive without paying. Unlimited removes the card cap and includes AI proofreading and organization, API access and integrations, and priority support.

According to the published pricing information, Unlimited costs £6 monthly or £72 billed annually, equivalent to £6 per month. USD pricing is not published on the vendor's site, so US buyers cannot compare the listed price in dollars from that information. A Reddit commenter also raises a character-count limit on cards; another user describes it as a soft limit, so we would check the current product details before moving long-form notes over.

The card-first structure may take adjustment. One Reddit user reports a learning curve, while other commenters call the app expensive or object to its pricing. Those views are subjective, but they underline the trade-off: the free tier has a fixed cap, and the paid plan is a recurring cost for users who need more room.

Supernotes has a free Starter tier, but it stops at 100 cards. The pricing details list mobile, desktop and web apps, fast sync, and offline note creation and editing. If you need more than 100 cards, Unlimited removes the card cap and adds AI proofreading and organization, the full API and integrations, and priority support.

The pricing page lists Unlimited at £6 monthly or £72 billed annually, equivalent to £6 per month. That means paying annually does not lower the listed monthly rate; it means paying the year upfront. The USD price is not published on the vendor's site, so US buyers cannot compare it directly with dollar-priced alternatives here. The published details list no add-ons. The practical price jump is from free with a firm 100-card limit to a paid plan for unlimited cards; there is no intermediate tier listed.

Supernotes supports importing Markdown notes, so existing notes in that format have a documented route in. The published details do not say whether imports preserve links, formatting, or folder structure, or whether there are bulk-import limits; check those points before moving a large library. Cards can be organized in hierarchies and linked, but the source does not describe a way to recreate those structures automatically from another app.

For moving out, the listed export option is generating printable PDFs from Markdown. That is useful for reading or printing, but the published details do not confirm a full, editable export of cards, links, or comments. Treat portability as something to verify before building a large linked library. We were not given Reddit posts or comments about why users leave Supernotes, so we can’t attribute common switching complaints to Reddit. The clearest documented reason to reconsider is the free tier’s 100-card cap; Unlimited is paid, and its USD price is not published here.
