# Powerful Productivity Apps LiquidText Comes to Microsoft Devices By Glenn Mandel | Published 2020-11-10 | Updated 2020-12-29 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/liquidtext-for-windows-devices References: [windowscentral](https://www.windowscentral.com/liquidtext-brings-its-unique-approach-documents-surface-pro-x-and-arm64) & [liquidtext.net](https://www.liquidtext.net/) LiquidText, the ultimate productivity app and [Apple’s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-notetaking-app) “Most Innovative App of the Year,” is now being integrated within all Windows devices, including the latest [Microsoft](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/windows-app) [Surface](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/surface-pro-12) products. This is the first time an Apple “Most Innovative App of the Year" has come to Microsoft devices/platforms. The application reinvents reading and note taking by allowing users to review documents faster, find facts effortlessly, see the connections others miss and then go past the limits of paper. While most productivity apps try to duplicate paper, most applications are limited in their capabilities – most of the workforce (80%) still uses the more traditional notetaking approach. That is now changing due to LiquidText. LiquidText captures a users’ reading, notes, highlights, annotations and observations just like paper; but goes further to reveal their connections: to source materials and each other in a way which documents and maps a users’ project in a clear and shareable form. The app connects related notes into ideas and connects those ideas into reports. No other app on the market has this level of capabilities and user cases. For anyone using a Windows-powered device, such as Microsoft Surface, it delivers an experience never seen previously. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.5/10 - Popularity: 46% | Activity: 49% | Freshness: 9% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/mobile) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Cross-platform Productivity Apps:** Apps that easily integrate between different operating systems and devices. - **Digital Note-taking Revolution:** Apps that go beyond traditional paper notes and offer advanced organizational and record-keeping capabilities. - **Visual Project Management Tools:** Apps that offer innovative visualizations to manage projects and notes. ### Where This Applies - **Technology:** There is an opportunity for tech companies to develop cross-platform productivity apps that can integrate with other commonly used devices. - **Education:** Educational institutions could leverage digital note-taking apps to streamline the learning process and enhance student engagement. - **Business:** LiquidText and other productivity apps can significantly streamline project management, organization, and communication within the workplace. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Elevating Notepad Features](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-notetaking-app.md) - [Digitized Note-Taking Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flownote.md) - [Device-Streaming Productivity Applications](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/windows-app.md) - [Hybrid Virtual Brainstorming Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/postit-note-app.md) - [Handwriting Editing Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/goodnotes-notetaking-app.md) - [Creative Infinite Whiteboard Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freeform-app.md) - [Interactive Note Managers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jotterly.md) - [Enhanced Note-Taking Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sticky-notes-1.md) - [Minimalist Paper-Like Tablets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/remarkable-paper-pro.md)
