Note vs Amber

Keep what you really care about in focus with this mini notes app & widget. It’s like a pinned note in its own app. The app feels like just 1 note, but you can create up to 8 infinite pages. It features beautiful typefaces. There is extra spacing between lines. You can mark lines with color, italics, or both. Pages can also be given custom names. Each page is saved as a plain text file, either in iCloud Drive or only on your iPhone or iPad. Text and links can be added to a page in the app from within other apps using the Share button. You can add a sticky note widget to your Home Screen and Lock Screen that shows the last line you selected in the app or the line you pinned in the Home Screen widget. A control lets you open the app directly from Control Center or your Lock Screen. You can also assign this control to your iPhone’s Action button. An Apple Watch app and widget show the last line you selected in the app on your paired iPhone or the line you pinned in the app on your watch.

Enhance your late-night reading, deep study sessions, and Pomodoro workflows. Amber is a comprehensive productivity suite and acoustic shielding tool engineered specifically for nighttime focus environments and shared spaces. Designed for students, researchers, and avid readers, Amber combines time management, acoustic masking, and specialized visual reading aids into one distraction-free interface. Whether you are cramming in a shared dorm or reading without waking your partner, Amber provides a multi-sensory environment to keep you locked into your physical book or deep work session. Core Productivity Features: • Ambient Focus Sessions: Manage your study time effectively. Utilize built-in session timers to box your reading or work into 15, 30, or 60-minute increments. Perfect for Pomodoro-style workflows, the app’s visual and audio cues organically adapt when your session is complete. • Unbroken Acoustic Shielding: Maintain your concentration by masking background home and dorm noises. Amber features built-in, seamlessly looping pure Brown and Pink Noise generators. Audio streams fully uninterrupted into your locked screen background to keep you in the zone. • Line-Tracking Reading Ruler: A highly specialized concentration utility for physical books. Amber dims the majority of your display into deep shadow, leaving only a customizable, draggable horizontal strip. Use this strip to visually track line-by-line down your physical textbook—drastically reducing visual clutter, aiding reading focus, and minimizing room light pollution. • Low-Stimulation Visual Themes: Select from dedicated low-Kelvin interface themes (Deep Red, Amber, and Candlelight). These organic dark-light zones are designed to minimize eye strain during late-night app usage and prevent jarring visual transitions. • Guided Access Optimized: Amber's interface is structurally designed to act as a strict "Do Not Disturb" hub. When paired with native iOS Guided Access, it functions as a locked-down focus blockade, preventing doom-scrolling and external alerts while the app’s timer and audio keep you on task. • OLED-Conscious Architecture: Built mindfully for modern displays. Amber integrates complex pixel-drifting modules, deep moving vectors, and organic true-black rendering to protect your screen and optimize battery life during multi-hour study marathons. Important Notice: Amber is a productivity and ambient focus tool intended strictly for personal comfort, time management, and study session enhancement. It makes no medical claims regarding sleep, ADHD, or health benefits, and users assume all risks associated with prolonged screen usage.
