From the sources

Quiver desktop has changed how I take notes and I love it. It’s easy to use and has great features. The help section is also good which is a must for me. The different cell types are great, I really like being able to take notes in Markdown because it makes transferring notes to GitHub or exporting as a clean PDF that much easier. I love how many languages there are to choose from. I really like the keyboard shortcuts because they help my workflow and they feel logical. Being able to store my notes in Google Drive and sync across devices is awesome and makes me feel better that my notes are stored in the cloud (which I trust more than my aging laptop). I would definitely recommend this app.…from itunes.apple.com
