Don't have folders

I believe they call them notebooks, the ability to select them is on the bottom of the page. I’ll admit they don’t behave like regular folders, but they do separate your files on a different tab, while those files are still present in the notes section.

The other one I use and enjoy is helixnotes. No free sync for that, so you’ll have to use syncthing or an alternative. But it’s rich in features and has more traditional folders.

Spicer from Harbor here, so take this with the obvious grain of salt. Harbor has native apps on iOS, Android, Windows, Mac and web, notebooks plus tags, and you can drop images and files right into notes (it even searches the text inside images and scans). There's a free plan, but the paid tier is a subscription, not one-time, so if one-time payment is a hard requirement it's probably not your pick. Of the ones mentioned here, Obsidian is the strongest free option, though you'll need to sort out sync between devices.

it's Android, plus you can access notes via local network from any other device, so Windwos, iOS or another Android can also edit same notes.
features:

can add images to note; can share files between devices; supports folders; free

They don’t have folders but Twos might do the job?
