Tine

Tine is a fast, local-first outliner that reads and writes a real Logseq

Markdown (and Org) graph on disk. It aims to feel like — and round-trip with —

Logseq: the outliner, tasks and priorities, journals, page and block references,

queries (with a visual builder), PDF and media, and HTML export.

About the permissions Tine asks for:

All files access — Tine edits an ordinary folder of Markdown files that you

choose and keep wherever you like: a Syncthing folder, an SD card, a shared

Documents directory. Android's restricted storage model offers no way to grant

an app read-write access to a tree of plain files that other apps also write

to, so full file access is what makes a real on-disk graph possible. Tine

touches only the graph folder you point it at.

Network access — Tine has no accounts, no server of its own, and no sync

service; it does not phone home and collects no analytics. The permission is

used only to load remote content that is already in your own notes: images and

media you linked by https:// URL, and embedded YouTube or Vimeo players if you

paste such a link. If nothing in your notes points at a remote URL, Tine makes

no network requests of its own. The F-Droid build additionally has the online

plugin catalogue compiled out, so plugins and themes can only be installed from

local files.

DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION — this one is not really Tine's. It is
