questions
can i import from obsidian?
yes. zip your vault and import to jottie. markdown converts cleanly.
does jottie have a graph view?
not currently. related notes surfaces connections differently.
are jottie notes stored locally?
on ios, yes - local-first. on web, they're encrypted in the cloud.
start with a single note, then use search or chat to pull the context back instantly.
