PinNote - Pin your daily notes directly to your Lock Screen

by•
PinNote turns your daily notes into Live Activities, right there on your Lock Screen, without unlocking your phone. Note: iPhone clears Lock Screen notes after up to 12 hours. As long as you open PinNote at least every 12 hours, your notes refresh on their own and stay pinned for good. FEATURES — Inline editing — Gesture-based: swipe to edit or delete, drag to reorder, pull to create — Custom colors, fonts, and text alignment — Up to 5 notes — Add a note directly from Control Center

Hi everyone, PinNote is basically a sticky note for your lock screen. That's where the idea (and the design) comes from: those little colored post-its you stick on your desk so you don't forget stuff. I made it because I'm bad at remembering small things. Not the stuff I write in a notes app and never open again, but the quick things I actually need to see during the day. A code, a time, a "don't forget this." The one screen I look at all day is my lock screen. So PinNote puts your notes there, as Live Activities. You glance at your phone, the note is already there. You can reorder them, give them colors, and swipe them away when you're done. It started as a small thing I built for myself. Hope it helps you remember the little things too.

how does this handle battery drain with notes refreshing constantly in the background? curious if it actually sips power or if my phone will notice it pinned all day

the swipe to edit gesture feels so natural here, like it actually understands how people use a lock screen rather than just dumping a widget onto it. nice execution.
