## What is Popt Notes?

Popt is the new mobile notes app that does more with less. As you type, Popt quietly suggests tags for dates, contacts, places, and even movies & TV shows. Your notes stay plain and fast, but pop to life with contact cards, show posters, timelines, maps and more.

NO SPEED LIMIT
• Jot one liners faster than you can say Popt
• From 0 to reminder in under 5.1s
• Tag dates, places and contacts with a quick tap
• Search or compose a new note from the same thumb-friendly text area

NEW! ADD POINTS OF INTEREST TO YOUR NOTES
• Insert landmarks, restaurants, gyms and more, right in your notes
• Browse all your points of interest in the Places tab, neatly organised by country and city
• Instantly get directions for any of your tagged places
• Call a restaurant to make a booking, visit the website of a museum in just a tap

MOVIES & TV SHOWS
• Type a title in the Home tab and Popt will suggest trending movie and tv show matches without sending your words anywhere
• Movies & TV items you add to your notes give you quick access to the trailer and to 'where to watch' links
• Search online without leaving Popt to find rarer titles
• Powered by The Movie Database

PAGES THAT POP
• Each note can be the beginning of a new page
• Add timestamped notes to pages – great for journaling!
• Customize pages with 100+ stickers crafted by human artists
• Link pages together, wiki-style

MULTIPLE PERSPECTIVES
• To-dos from all your notes are gathered in the To-dos tab
• Tagged dates and timeframes compose a timeline in the Dates tab
• Movies, contacts and places show up in the Collections tab
• Coming soon: calendar integration, links collection, more detailed places (restaurants, venues, addresses, your own location...)

SHARE MORE THAN TEXT
Popt pages can be shared with other Popt users via Airdrop, email, WhatsApp, Slack... When you share a Popt page, you're also sharing the content associated with the tags it contains:
• Contact cards of any tagged contacts
• Geographical information of any tagged places
• The timeline of tagged dates
• Rich cards for tagged movies & TV shows

LOCAL AND PRIVATE
• Analytics disabled by default
• As you type suggestions powered by on-device data and analysis: your notes are yours only
• No iCloud sync – your Popt data will transfer to a new iPhone when using Apple's Quick Start transfer, restoring an iCloud backup, or restoring a local backup
• Popt notes can also be exported as a single restorable archive (Backstage tab -> Export all)
• Popt archives are plain text files you can open on any device. Best browsed with Obsidian (https://obsidian.md – free version available)
• End-to-end encrypted sync is on the roadmap

100% FREE FOR EARLY ADOPTERS
During its launch phase, Popt is entirely free!
• No sign-up
• No ads
• No downgrading – what is free now will remain free*

### 5/5 — Great idea

*2025-12-15*

I’ve been using a separate journal app along with Apple Notes for years, until Popt came along. I really love how you can instantly tag things like locations, movies, and people (and hopefully music in the future too), and group notes without having to create separate folders every time. While Apple Notes is very versatile, it can feel overwhelming at times. Popt seems to solve that problem nicely. It’s easy to navigate, simple to use, and most importantly, very clear.

**Developer response:** Thank you! We're really building Popt around our early adopters, so it would be great if you could let us know in a bit more detail what you'd expect from music tags. If you can find the time, please get in touch at support@popt.app – we're very curious!

### 5/5 — as a constant thinker , 5⭐️

*2025-11-26*

i’m always on a hunt to find new (notes) app to try and stumbled across this one from a instagram reel. i’m so happy that it checks out most of what i want from a notes app! been absolutely loving popt!! (and with the rise of ai “art” i absolutely love the artist made stickers🩶)

hoping for a widgets update & possibly a mac app as well! i know the app is still early on in the works but im very excited to see more developments and in no way rushing the devs! i can’t wait to see what they have in store for us

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the encouraging review Angela! The team here will be delighted to read it. Regarding a widget, could you please write to us at support@popt.app with a bit more detail as to what you'd expect from a widget? We're eager to get feedback from our early adopters. Thanks again! Gregorio, Popt Team

### 5/5 — This one hit the marks for me and my creative endeavors

*2025-11-11*

I personally have been writing out my ideas and nothing I’ve used up to this point matches this. Clean interface, easy to use, and everything that’s I write out links up together very nicely. I give it a 5 for the great usage I am getting from using the app but I do have some bugs that I’m experiencing. Auto correct is a bit gitched out not completing the correction. When I use any other keyboard other than the default one built for the iPhone, some of what I’m looking at get blocked by the hight of the on screen keyboard. And the last bug I’ve experienced is when I copy and paste in information, a bug menu pops up telling me something went wrong. I am awaiting for this app to reach its fullest potential. I think also it would be great if there was a way for the user to pull up video games like how I can pull up movies into the Popt menu.

**Developer response:** Thank you for giving Popt a whirl. You mention video-games, and it is very much on our roadmap. I'll add your vote to the feature's priority level.

I think that I saw your error report related to pasting, which should be fixed in 1.2.0. If it is not, please get in touch at support@popt.app !

Regarding auto-correct, I've flagged this as high priority. We'll do our best to improve support for non-keyboard input, and custom keyboards.

Thanks again for being there at the start of our journey!

Gregorio,
Popt Team
