I've always been a frequent user of Apple Notes. I’ve loved its simplicity — no unnecessary features, just pure focus on writing. But sometimes, creating folders felt a bit tedious, and I wished I could see all my notes at a glance in a more organized way. That’s where the idea came from. I decided to build a simple note app that combines minimal writing with clear, visual categories. While developing this app, my top priorities were simplicity and clarity. I wanted users to jot down their thoughts instantly, so I designed a bright red signature button for quick access, and spent a lot of time refining the flow for organizing and viewing notes by category. The overall writing experience was deeply inspired by the clean and intuitive structure of Apple Notes. It’s a small project, but one made with genuine care — I hope it helps people capture their own moments of inspiration.

@octave_connect It looks clean and simple! Congrats on the launch and upvoted it. I think it would be cool if I don't have to find the app and launch it , but the note can be accessed as a widget - is that something you can support?

@cksaywise That’s a really great idea! I’ll do my best to include it in an upcoming update as soon as possible!

This looks super clean, @octave_connect ! I love the minimal design approach. Quick question does Notilus support syncing across devices or cloud backup yet, or is it currently focused on local note-taking only?

@chrishicken Thanks so much for your comment, Chris!

We actually just launched a subscription plan (around $1/month) that adds iCloud backup support as of yesterday!

As for cross-device syncing, it’s not available yet and we don’t have concrete plans for it at the moment.

Really appreciate your interest and kind words!
