Download Daily Notes Planner for Mac in the Mac App Store and start syncing your notes between your iPhone and MacBook! As a much simpler calendar app than the built-in iCalendar app, Daily Notes Planner allows you to type in plain-text-notes for every date (no complicated hourly scheduling or reminders here). Because notes are organized by date, you will know exactly where to look for when you reference them later. Tap on the date in the calendar to go into that date and record or reference notes. The dates with notes are highlighted in the calendar. Tapping onto the search bar will immediately list all of your notes chronologically with today's note right in front of you and with older notes above and newer notes below it. Search term will be highlighted as you search. Use iCloud to sync your notes between multiple devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac, MacBook ...) and apps (Daily Notes Planner 1 & 2). All you need to do is to SAVE your notes in a device/app and LOAD them in another device/app in the app's iCloud page (under "Extras"). Reference today's notes in the not editable textview below the calendar without worrying that you would accidentally change it from frequent referencing. If you have a lengthy today's notes, you can minimize the calendar to a weekly mode by scrolling on it.

In life, we log the records about the books we read and the movies we watch; at work, we may also need to complete a weekly report. In these tiny records, in addition to notes, there are also plans and summaries, at this time, we do not need to associate or think too much, as long as a quick record can be. Short and concise is the best, even if thinking about inserting a photo, it will affect the efficiency of the recording. ## Faster Than Fast, Simpler Than Simple Is there a "Faster" way to log and record? "Faster Than Fast"? This is a very interesting design exploration, we removed almost all unnecessary buttons, no button for creating new note, no pop-up an editint interface. All the recording and writing is done in one screen only, and the 365 days of the year are visualized in "per week" units. You can see everything at a glance, select a day, and start writing directly. We've also added the ability to automatically export "Weekly Reports" in PDF format. ## Self-Review Easily When an App is simple enough, it makes us feel relaxed. Self-reflection can be a no-brainer. As the designers of the App, we create it but also enjoy the convenience it brings. Record, just record. In a small grid, 365 days, just a few words, but also enough to see the whole of our life and work. - - - - - - - - - - - - Privacy Policy: http://markeditor.com/privacy-policy.html Terms of Use: http://markeditor.com/page/terms.md
