## What is Lex Notes?

Lex Notes is a voice-first notes app for brains that don't think in straight lines. Talk it out, sketch it out, mind-map it, then come back to a clean page that actually makes sense.

Built for the way you already think — not the way an old-school outline says you should.

— RECORD ON THE FLY —
Tap the mic and start talking. Lex Notes transcribes your voice on-device using Apple's Speech Recognition framework, so your audio never leaves your phone. Capture a thought before it's gone.

— RISO-INSPIRED CANVAS —
A warm bone-paper background, spot-color inks, and seven stationery stocks (Riso Classic, Newsprint, Bullet Dot Grid, Engineer's Grid, Kraft, Green Ledger, Blueprint). Pick the page, then start working.

— DRAW + WRITE + ANNOTATE —
Pen, pencil, marker, highlighter — three highlighter palettes (Neon, Pastel, Classic) layered with proper multiply blending. Add photos, snap text from a page with on-device OCR.

— STUDY THE WAY YOU NEED —
Mind maps with branching layouts, flashcard decks generated from any note, Cornell-style structured pages, meeting templates with action items, agenda pages — all included.

— FOCUS-FRIENDLY —
Calm, low-stim defaults. No streaks, no shame loops, no notifications begging you back. Lex Notes is just here when you need it.

— EXPORT EVERYWHERE —
Save to Files, drop into Photos, AirDrop, Mail, Drive, Dropbox — anywhere iOS can share, Lex Notes can land.

— LEX PRO —
Unlock advanced AI features and the full library:
• 7-day free trial for new subscribers — prices shown at checkout.
Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage in iOS Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions. Payment is charged to your Apple ID.

— PRIVACY —
Notes, audio, and photos stay on your device. We do not run accounts. We do not collect analytics. The only data that leaves your phone is the receipt that proves your purchase.

— TERMS & PRIVACY —
Privacy: https://github.com/xADROCx1/lex-legal/blob/main/PRIVACY_POLICY.md
Terms (EULA): https://github.com/xADROCx1/lex-legal/blob/main/TERMS_OF_USE.md

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.5 — 2026-06-23

What's new in 1.0.5:

• New Lex app icon and launch screen branding.
• Refreshed visual polish for a cleaner first impression.
• Paywall review notes updated for subscription pricing, Terms, Privacy, and AI disclosure.
• No account is required; notes remain local-first.

### 1.0.4 — 2026-05-22

What's new in 1.0.4:

• Pricing is now live from the App Store. Whatever Apple's storefront shows you on the paywall is exactly what you pay at checkout — no hardcoded numbers, no surprises.

• Lower Lex Pro pricing for new and existing subscribers, effective May 23, 2026: Lex Pro Monthly drops to $1.99/month and Lex Pro Yearly drops to $14.99/year (about 37% saved vs. monthly). If you're already subscribed, you'll auto-renew at the lower price.

• No data, privacy, or AI Polish flow changes since 1.0.3.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-05-15

What's new in 1.0.3:
- The Lex Pro paywall now opens the moment you tap Record, Mind Maps, Flashcards, or Agendas, so you can find your subscription options when you actually need them.
- The same paywall is one tap away from Settings -> Lex Pro any time.
- Everything required for an informed subscription decision (Lex Pro Monthly $9.99/month, Lex Pro Yearly $79.99/year, 7-day free trial, full auto-renewal terms, Restore Purchases, Privacy Policy, Terms of Use) lives in one card, with the billed amount as the most prominent pricing element.
- Tap "Not now" any time to keep using the free version of Lex Notes. Subscribers never see the prompt.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-05-09

Bug fix: the device no longer locks itself mid note-taking.

What changed in 1.0.2:
- The screen is now held awake while you are recording a voice note or reading/editing an existing note. iOS auto-lock used to interrupt long recordings and force you to wake the screen back up to keep reading -- that's gone.
- The screen-keep-awake is scoped: it only holds during the recording screen and the note edit screen. Home, Projects, Themes, and Settings still respect your normal auto-lock so the device sleeps when you're not actively working in a note.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-05-06

Renamed to Lex Notes — same app, clearer name. (We picked this to differentiate from another well-known app named Lex, so you always land in the right place.)

What's new in 1.0.1:
• Lex Pro paywall now displays full subscription terms, Privacy Policy, Terms of Use (EULA), and Restore Purchases right next to the subscribe buttons — billed amount is the most prominent pricing element.
• AI Polish (optional, off by default) now asks for explicit permission before sending any text to Anthropic, with full disclosure of what is sent, recipient, and how the data is used. Off-device polish is the offline default — nothing leaves the device unless you opt in.
• Privacy policy section 3.4 added to fully document the Anthropic data path.
