Quick Draft

Quick Draft is the fastest way to capture notes into Obsidian on Android. Open it and a blank page is ready: type, dictate or snap a photo, and your note lands in the right file of your Obsidian vault. Capture on your phone now, organize on desktop later.

ROUTES

Routes send one capture to several Destinations, apply formatting and run actions for you. Set up a route for meeting notes, one for your reading list and one for your daily journal, then switch with one tap.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Quick Draft never needs full access to your vault. You choose the exact files and folders (Destinations) it can write to. No account, and no data collected. A short in-app tutorial walks you through setup.

Notes are saved as plain Markdown files in the folders you pick, so they show up in Obsidian like any other note.

Quick Draft is free to use, with optional paid features that cover AI and server costs.
