Note-Taking App Vesper Updated with iOS 7 Redesign, New Typography Options

by

Vesper, a note-taking app developed by a team led by Apple blogger John Gruber, has launched an update that features a complete redesign in-line with the “flat” design principles of iOS 7, as well various other enhancements such as 64-bit support on the iPhone 5s, new typography settings and improved text rendering. The update also includes brand new gestures for photo management and performance improvements.

Originally released in June, Vesper offers a simplistic user interface that focuses on quick input and customizable organization, using a “tags” based system to easily group items into collections. The app also supports photos in addition to text along with an in-app browser, and drag and drop functionality for organization.

Vesper can be downloaded from the App Store for $4.99. [Direct Link]

STILL no sync? $4.99?

WTF?

As some blogger said, why is no one saying "data silo"?

No question this is a great looking and polished app. Lack of sync and no iPad version is still going to be a deal killer for many though.

Is there anything that this app does that Day One doesn't do way better?

Simplicity. In Vesper, you tag your notes, swipe to the right, and you see the drawer of your tags. In Day One, I don't think it works that way. Day One is more of a journaling/entry type of app.
