Field notes
Footnotes combines route tracking with three forms of capture: typed notes, voice recordings described as transcribed, and photographs. Each item is tied to a point along the walk, then the resulting material can leave the app as Markdown for Obsidian or GPX for Wikiloc and Strava. The homepage presents the journal as local to the iPhone, with optional iCloud syncing, and explicitly lists no accounts, ads, or subscriptions.
