Features

Fast enough that you never wait

  1. Hover to open

    Move to the notch, or press ⌥⌘N. No notch? It still drops from the top.

  2. Markdown, like typing

    Headings, bold, lists, to-dos — one tap. Check a box to finish it.

  3. Keep several open

    Switch with the dots. Paste a screenshot in.

  4. No save button

    It saves when you pause. Quit and it’s still there.

  5. Notes are files

    Each one is a .md. No account. Works offline.

  6. No Dock icon

    One Q in the menu bar. Move away and it tucks itself.
