About

Minimatod

Features
Read full description

Minimatod is a minimalist notes and to-do app with one powerful idea: every note or task can hold more notes and tasks — nested as deeply as you want. Open any item to step inside it and keep planning. A single line can become a project, with sub-tasks, sub-notes, and sub-everything beneath it. No clutter, no limits. And now your whole board follows you: sign in once, and your notes, tasks and folders sync across all your devices, including the web — free. WHY MINIMATOD - Infinite nesting — drill into any note or task and add more inside it - Sync across devices — notes, tasks and folders stay in step on every device, free - Notes and tasks together — jot a thought or track a to-do, side by side - Structured notes — headings, checklists, bold and coloured text as you type - Canvas — a free-form drawing surface for ideas words can't hold - Photos, video and voice — attach them to any note - Repeating tasks — daily, weekly or monthly, with streaks - Reminders — pin a date and time to any task - Lock anything — Face ID, fingerprint or passcode; locked items hide from lists and search - Rolled-up progress — each item shows how many tasks are done inside it - Trash — deleted items stay recoverable for 7 days - Offline-first — everything works without a connection and opens instantly - No account needed — the app is fully yours offline; sign in only if you want sync - Private by design — no ads, no tracking, your data is never sold - Truly minimal — a calm design that stays out of your way MINIMATOD PREMIUM Media sync for your attachments: photos, voice notes, videos and drawings follow you to every device, with up to 10 GB of storage (fair use). Try it free for 14 days. Monthly or yearly — cancel anytime in your App Store settings. Your data is never held hostage: if Premium ends, everything stays on your device and text sync keeps working. Plan a trip, outline a project, keep a reading list, or run your whole week — Minimatod grows with your thinking instead of flattening it into one long list. Also available on the web at minimatod.com.
