## What is FlashNote?

FlashNote does one thing: it gets out of your way so you can write. Open it, type, done — your thought is saved and on its way to your other devices. No folders, no note lists, no "New Note" button. Just one fast note, always ready.

INSTANT ON IPHONE & IPAD
• Launches straight into your note — Markdown renders live from the first character.
• A Markdown toolbar above the keyboard: headings, bold, lists, checklists, quotes, code.
• Markdown lists continue themselves as you type; check off a task and move to the next.

REAL MARKDOWN
• Live rendering: task lists, quotes, and code blocks with syntax highlighting.
• Your note is plain Markdown text. No lock-in, no proprietary format.

PRIVATE ICLOUD SYNC
• Your note follows you across iPhone, iPad, and Mac in the background — usually before you've switched devices.
• Built on CloudKit: notes live only in your own iCloud. We run no servers and see nothing.
• Edits merge safely even when two devices are in flight at the same time.
• iCloud sync is included with FlashNote Pro — a one-time purchase, no subscription.

THOUGHTFUL DETAILS
• Autosaves as you type and when you switch away.
• Light and dark appearance — follow the system or pick one.
• Adjustable font size. Word count at a glance.
• English and 简体中文, switchable in-app.
• Sync status at a glance, with diagnostics if you're curious.

No account. No tracking. No ads. Just a fast place to write things down.
