The actual /user/documents folder on my Mac is basically empty, because everything sits within DevonThink.ĮDIT: As pointed out in the comments by Bill and Jim from DevonThink, you actually shouldn’t put your DevonThink databases in your Dropbox. Unlike iPhoto/Aperture, I haven’t had any issues with syncing the entire database file to Dropbox. I have one DevonThink database inside my /Dropbox/Documents/ folder on my Mac. One of the big features that I personally find very useful is to sync all select DevonThink documents to my iPhone/iPad and have digital copies of everything with me everywhere I go.

Personally, I don’t use DevonThink for storing “information sets” like processes and scripts – those go into Evernote instead. I like the idea of being 100% paperless, so every sheet of paper that enters my life is scanned and stored within DevonThink. I personally use DevonThink for storing files and documents.

I’ve never tried the Pro or Personal editions, but most of this article is about basic setup so it should be applicable to all editions. I personally use DevonThink Pro Office – the top-end edition. What I do know is that the basic setup I use works pretty well for me and most people I’ve shared it with.

There’s no right way or wrong way to use it, and I’m pretty sure that I don’t personally know all the functions, workflows and options available within the program yet. In this article I want to provide you a basic introduction to how we use DevonThink.įor the uninitiated, DevonThink is a “Smart Document Management” application, that helps you manage your information and helps you go paperless.ĭevonThink is a very complex and customizable program.
