Textile is the iPhone notes app for people who just want an iPhone notes app. No login, no cloud accounts to manage, no half-built checklists. Just elegant typography and simple, rock-solid functionality. Here’s what it has that other apps don’t: Simplicity. If you want an app that does everything, look elsewhere. Seriously. Textile is built on the belief that a tool should do one thing perfectly, not ten things decently or a hundred things terribly. Typing a note to save for later is something your phone should be able to do instantly, easily, without drowning you in ads, cryptic screens, or unnecessary features. Textile has no user login, no cloud configuration, no complicated formatting, no drawing, no half-baked checklists — the list goes on. It’s made for people who want to use their phone as a tool, not a distraction. Typography. Typefaces have a huge effect on how we think and feel about the written word, so Textile comes loaded with a carefully curated selection of elegant fonts to make your notes look the way they were meant to look, including sans-serif, serif (both roman and italic), and monospaced fonts. Quality. Textile is a tool you can rely on. Its quality and its simplicity go hand in hand: a smaller feature set means every feature is bulletproof and never broken. Let your phone get out of your way. Use the feedback form in Textile’s settings menu or email lukebradfordapps@gmail.com to send questions, comments, requests, and any issues you find.
