Note and writing apps

Capture your thoughts instantly in a single, always-accessible note. Plain text only. Simple by design. On macOS, the app sits in your menu bar or Dock, ready whenever inspiration strikes. On iOS, it can be accessed from the Home Screen.

For a note-taking app that promises simplicity, I'd expect a bit more than just plain text, why not include simple formatting options like bold or italics? And aren't there already similar tools like Apple's own Notes app or Google Keep that offer syncing and easy accessibility too, what makes this one stand out? It'd be interesting to see how you plan to differentiate from these well established apps

Loving this minimalist approach, @sindresorhus! 📋 Sometimes the best ideas come at the most unexpected times, and having a note app that’s so accessible is a game changer. Quick keyboard shortcuts for instant capture? Yes, please! Perfect for those of us who always have a million thoughts racing. Can't wait to upvote this!

Cool new app really liking the simple design and the quick note feature, makes it super handy for capturing ideas on the fly nice job on another launch Sindresorhus, though maybe consider adding a dark mode for those of us who like to work late nights?

hey wow this new tool looks really neat, I'm always juggling a million things so having something that's always there sounds super useful, any plans to add more features or keep it simple like this?

Quick notes, sounds nice but plain text only really, would be good to see some more options for formatting or maybe even voice notes, any plans for that in the future?

I get that this app is all about simplicity, but isn't this just a stripped-down version of Notes? Evernote, even Google Keep offer way more features, feels like we're just going backward with tech, right? Would love to see more functionality, otherwise, it's kinda missing the point of why we use these tools.

Interesting idea but have you thought about how it stands out from other note-taking apps, not sure plain text alone cuts it nowadays, what about adding some basic formatting options or cloud sync for more accessibility

@pevcpro17 The app isn't meant to replace your full-featured notes app—it's meant to complement it. It's not for permanent notes, but rather a place to quickly jot down something. It already supports cloud sync.
