Type like our ancestors did - and create beautiful vintage cards to share. Vintage Notes isn't just a notepad app; it's a time machine designed for your mobile device. We have painstakingly recreated the visual and auditory experience of typing on authentic antique machines such as the Underwood Portable, The Remington Quiet Riter and the Royal Parade. Great for thank-you cards, holiday wishes, love letters, poetry or invent your own new art forms. Share them as digital cards on vintage paper.
