## What is SoloNote?

Some notes are nobody else's business.

SoloNote is the AI notebook that keeps it that way: the model lives inside the app, so the thinking happens on your iPhone — not on somebody's server. No account. No subscription. No cloud copy of your life. Put your phone in aeroplane mode and every feature keeps working. Try that with any other AI app.

NOTES AS RICH AS YOUR THINKING
Drop photos exactly where they belong and pinch them to size. Bold, headings, lists, checklists that tick with a tap, links that open in your browser. Formatting is a button — you will never see a markup character.

FIND THE NOTE YOU HALF-REMEMBER
You wrote "the little bakery with the queue" three months ago. Tonight you search "that cake place" — and there it is. SoloNote searches by meaning, as you type, entirely on your device.

TALK FASTER THAN YOU CAN TYPE
Tap once and speak. Your words land on the page as you say them — ideal for catching a thought before it slips away.

TIDY THE 2 A.M. SCRIBBLE
One tap turns a rushed note into a clear one without changing what you meant. And when a note is already fine, SoloNote says so instead of inventing a rewrite.

ASK YOUR PAPERWORK ANYTHING
Attach a PDF or Word file, or photograph a printed page, and ask it questions — without sending it anywhere. SoloNote reads the text, tables, dates and amounts on your device, and the totals it gives you are calculated, not guessed: the figures you get back are the figures in your file.

AN AI THAT ADMITS IT
Most assistants guess when the answer isn't there. SoloNote tells you it didn't find one — and when your notes hold two possible answers, it shows you the sentences and names the notes they came from, instead of picking for you. Need the live web instead? Switch search on for that one question.

"DENTIST ON TUESDAY" BECOMES A REMINDER
Write a date and SoloNote notices, offering a reminder in one tap. Local notifications only — nothing is copied into your calendar.

SCRIBBLED PLACES BECOME A ROUTE
List the places you want to visit — or let SoloNote read them out of a note you already wrote — and get a mapped, ordered trip with the driving or walking time between stops. Adding a stop suggests real places as you type, your own position shows on the map, and one tap hands the whole route to Apple Maps or Google Maps.

SOME NOTES HIDE
Swipe to lock a note and it vanishes from your lists, your search and Chat. Face ID — or your passcode — brings it back when you want it.

CAPTURE AT THE SPEED OF A TAP
The Home and Lock Screen widget opens a blank note instantly — and displays none of your writing.

FREE MEANS FREE
No ads, no paywall, nothing to unlock, nobody to sign in as. The download is large because the AI comes inside the box — which is exactly why everything works with the radios switched off.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Your notes, photos and document processing stay on your device.
• No account and no sign-in — ever.
• Works offline and in aeroplane mode.
• Web search runs only on the questions you turn it on for.
• Trips is the exception to “everything stays here”: adding a stop sends what you type to Apple Maps as you type it (that is how places are suggested), plus your location if you add it as a stop. Opening a trip in Google Maps sends that trip’s stops to Google. Your notes never do.
• Anonymous usage statistics help us improve SoloNote, and can be switched off in Settings.

Your thinking deserves a room of its own. This is it.

SoloNote is available in English, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese.


## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.1 — 2026-08-28

• An upgraded on-device AI model: Tidy, Chat and trip planning all give better answers — still private, still offline.
• SoloNote now speaks Simplified and Traditional Chinese: the whole app, with a language switch in Settings.
• SoloNote now lets you know when a new version is on the App Store.

### 2.0 — 2026-08-26

Your notes just learnt to hold photos, checklists and tappable links — and trip planning got a tab of its own, with real places suggested as you type.

NEW
• Photos live inside your notes now — pinch to resize, tap for full screen.
• Bold, headings, lists and checklists that tick with a tap.
• Links that open in your browser.
• Trips has its own tab: start typing a stop and the right place offers itself.
• Tap any stop to swap it for somewhere else — its position in the route stays put.
• You are on the map too: your position is the familiar blue dot, and destinations keep their numbered pins.
• Write a note listing places, then turn it into a mapped route — you tick the ones you meant.
• Keep a note on any stop, put stops in the best order with one tap, and hand the route to Apple Maps or Google Maps.

IMPROVED
• Dictation is now tap to start, tap to stop — speak for as long as you like.

Everything above happens on your device, exactly as before.

### 1.4 — 2026-08-19

Never lose a date buried in a note.
SoloNote now spots dates as you write — "dentist checkup on Tuesday" —
and offers a reminder in one tap. You can also set one by hand from the
editor. Reminders stay on your device as local notifications; nothing is
written into your calendar.

Some notes are nobody else's business.
Swipe a note to lock it and it disappears from your list, your search
results and Chat. Face ID, or your passcode, opens the vault.

Straighter answers in Chat.
When your notes don't actually contain the answer, SoloNote now says so
instead of assembling a confident-sounding guess. And where a note holds
more than one possible answer, it shows you that sentence and names the
note, rather than quietly choosing one.

A blank note, one tap from your Home Screen.
Add the new SoloNote widget to your Home or Lock Screen. It shows none
of your writing — it is a way in, not a window.

Settings now has its own tab, with a box to tell us what SoloNote should
do next. We read every message.

### 1.3 — 2026-08-11

Ask questions about your documents.
Attach a PDF, Word file, or a photo of a printed page in Chat.
SoloNote reads it entirely on your device — including tables — and
answers from what's actually in the document.

Tables done properly.
Column headers stay attached to their rows, tables split across pages
are read as one, and totals are calculated exactly rather than
generated — so the figures you get back are the figures in your file.

Scanned pages and photos.
Point your camera at a printed page and SoloNote pulls the text out.

Longer conversations stay stable.
Fixed a memory problem that could cut a chat short after several
detailed questions.

### 1.2 — 2026-08-05

What’s New in Version 1.2

  - The on-device AI model is now included with the app—no separate model download required.
  - Ask questions directly about your attached documents, including PDFs and Word files.
  - Improved document understanding for tables, lists, dates, amounts, and transaction details.
