![]() Operating on those terms also tends to raise other considerations, especially concerning security.įunctionally, the question becomes how you access and interact with that data. Even if you maxed out the storage option, keeping all of your data locally on an iPad is not only atypical, but seriously risky. Ordinarily, your data is always somewhere else. This is a crude analogy, but in a sense the architecture of iOS makes it something of a modern day terminal client. In the meantime, as that option is not available on iOS it might seem more cut and dry. I intend to cover DEVONthink on macOS in the not too distant future, I will look at the pros and cons of taking this route then. You data remains at large in the native file system. If putting everything into a database is a problem, you can use the indexing feature instead, and still take advantage of the search super powers.

The thing that has surprised me most is the way DEVONthink has affected how I work on iOS. I am a fairly recent convert to DEVONthink more generally, but the more I use them, the more I understand their immense value.Īs I prepare my own version of the indulgent listicles you see everywhere, I am reminded of the myriad ways I have integrated DEVONthink into my workflow. Closing out last year I took a good look at the merits of using DEVONthink to Go as an iOS only user.
