A notepad that stays out of your way.

A notepad over any app

Press ⌥Space from anywhere and a notepad one line tall appears. Type your thought, save it, and carry on with what you were doing. Press Tab and your notes are right underneath.

Locked notes, actually locked

Lock any note with a passphrase only you know. It's encrypted before it leaves your device, and Face ID or Touch ID opens it after that.

Apple Watch

A real app, not a mirror. Dictate or scribble from your wrist, or start a note straight from your watch face.

Pinned notes widget

Keep the notes that matter in view, on your Mac desktop or your iPhone and iPad Home Screen.

Plain text, always

Export your notes whenever you like as ordinary text files any app can open. You're never stuck.

No account, no tracking

No sign-up, no subscription, no analytics. Your notes live in your own iCloud and nowhere else, and the Mac purchase is handled by Apple.
