So Freeform is a failure - Quick Draft could be an alternative

iOS and iPadOS

That's at least my recent impression.
I tried Freeform on iOS and Mac OS and actually it's useless because of missing accessibility. I'm very disappointed.
Quick Draft works similar but only allows text. If this is enough for your workflow it's really a nice app to take notes on iPhone and the Mac.

The closest accessible alternative to what Freeform is would be Mindnode. It has made extensive efforts to be accessible with VoiceOver. It's a mindmapping app which provides coordinates for where nodes are placed on the canvas. It's also possible to view your notes in an accessible outline form. You'll have to pay to subscribe to the app but it could very well be worth your while.

So far really a great recommendation. I've never experienced a mind mapping app as accessible as MindNode. Thanks for that.
What's really a pity: The Mac version seems to be completely inaccessible to VO.
I sent an e-Mail to the developer if they could make the app more accessible.
Let see what will happen.
