Minimal | Notes vs Pocket Pointer

Write with focus. Open your mind with Minimal, a meditation-inspired notes and writing app. Minimal combines thoughtful, modern design with powerful features to deliver a spacious, beautiful writing environment. • Note Lifetime • Collaborative writing • Publish notes as websites • Add Todos to the Calendar app • Beautiful formatting • Sync everywhere: Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch Minimal is a simple yet powerful notes app. Inspired by meditation, nature, and architectural design, Minimal provides a beautiful space to think, write, and organize projects. NOTE LIFETIME The Note Lifetime keeps your notebook fresh and reflective of the present moment. When a note goes unedited for a duration you choose in settings, you’ll be gently notified. This is an opportunity to review the note, act on it, or let it go. COLLABORATIVE WRITING Share notes with friends, family, and teammates. With a gentle design, writing remains focused and tranquil, even as thoughts merge and ideas multiply. Everyone receives changes as notes evolve, and multiple people can make edits at the same time without conflict. FOCUSED + SPACIOUS DESIGN Minimal is designed so only one element is ever in focus. We love the beauty of a blank page – abundant empty space allows for an ease of creative expression. PUBLISH AS WEBSITE Transform notes into beautifully-formatted websites in microseconds. TODO LISTS Todo lists are an effective way to organize projects and complete tasks. Sync with the Calendar app, get things done, and check everything off. BEAUTIFUL FORMATTING Minimal combines Markdown-style formatting with elegant typography. The result is simple, expressive notes that make it easy to think and write. SYNC EVERYWHERE Bring focus to your favorite devices. Minimal is designed for Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. Cloud Sync is fast, reliable, and invisible. SHARE, EXPORT, IMPORT You’re in control of your notes. Share directly in iMessage, export as PDF or HTML, and use the system share mechanism to take notes anywhere. Importing links + prose into Minimal is just as easy. CUSTOMIZE EVERYTHING The best notebook is personal. We made everything in Minimal customizable, from fonts + themes to sorting notes + note actions. You can also build custom workflows using the Shortcuts app. A LITTLE GIFT Wow, thanks for reading. As a little gift for tuning in, these are our favorite musicians -> Somi, Snarky Puppy, and London Grammar. They’re jazzy and introspective, just how we like it.

Your iPhone is already in your hand. Pocket Pointer turns it into a trackpad and keyboard for your Mac — real multi-touch gestures, real typing, no cable and no account. Free, both halves, with nothing to unlock. THE TRACKPAD YOU ALREADY KNOW • Move the pointer with one finger • Tap to click. Two-finger tap to right-click • Two-finger drag to scroll, with natural scrolling if you prefer it • Press, hold, then move to drag and drop • Three-finger swipe up for Mission Control • Three-finger swipe down for App Exposé • Three-finger swipe left or right to move between Spaces A KEYBOARD THAT ACTUALLY TYPES • Use your iPhone's own keyboard — every language you have installed, emoji, and dictation all arrive on the Mac • ⌃ ⌥ ⇧ ⌘ sit above the keys, so ⌘C, ⌘Tab and ⌘Space work the way they do on a Mac • Double-tap a modifier to hold it for several keys, tap again to let go • Esc, Tab and the arrow keys are right there — enough to run a slide deck from the back of the room BUILT FOR THE COUCH AND THE DESK • Pair once with a six-digit code, then never again • Reconnects on its own the next time you open the app • Pointer speed, scroll direction and haptics are yours to set • Tracks at your display's full refresh rate, so the cursor moves when your finger does PRIVATE BY CONSTRUCTION Your iPhone talks to your Mac directly over your own Wi-Fi. No server sits in the middle, there is no account to create, and there is nothing about you to collect — no analytics, no tracking, no third-party SDKs of any kind. Sessions are encrypted with AES-128-GCM, keyed by a credential kept in each device's Keychain, and a Mac only pairs when you type the code it is showing you. WHAT YOU NEED Pocket Pointer needs its free companion helper on the Mac — a small menu-bar app you install once from pocketpointer.vercel.app. It asks for Accessibility, which is what macOS requires before anything can move your pointer, and for nothing else. • iPhone running iOS 26 or later • Mac running macOS 26 or later • Both devices on the same local network Setup help and troubleshooting: pocketpointer.vercel.app/support.html
