Device Specific

I tend to use the default apps because they're generally cross platform out of the box. GMail is the one exception across the board, I use the apps on the more mobile devices and the web interface for desktop and laptop viewing. I have tried many note taking and reminder apps but Apple's work just fine for me. I'm currently catching up on podcasts so I'm rarely in apps like Music and I've mostly avoided Spotify for years now.

From a creative point of view, sometimes I shoot with my DSLR and tend to import into Photos and then work on them in Photomator for iPad.

As the owner of a new MacBook Pro this year, I decided to treat it as a new device and have stuck with Safari for now. Not perfect for development, but I'm coping with it. Nova is now my IDE of choice and where I need to FTP I'm using Transmit. Both apps are by Panic and are both great at what they do. I've stuck with MAMP Pro for a long time and see no need to change. It gives me all the stuff I need and CodeKit is overkill for just compiling SCSS into CSS but it does it well and has a few other features I use.

With the Apple Pencil I do take a lot of notes in the Notes app. They sync across devices and are searchable. Smart Script is a welcome update that makes my handwriting way more readable.
