Chigiri
Read full descriptionHide full description
Chigiri is a tear-off notepad for your iPhone. Jot down a phone number during a call, work out a quick sum, sketch a map for a friend. Open the app and you're already on a blank sheet — no lists, no folders, nothing to set up. Just write with your finger. When you're done, pull the binding at the top down and tear the sheet off. It rips away with a satisfying feel, and a fresh sheet is waiting underneath. • Opens straight to a blank sheet • Write with your finger — undo and eraser included • One sheet only. It stays until you tear it off, even if you close the app • Tear it off from the binding at the top. Torn sheets are deleted for good — no trash, no history • Post to X and tear: share the sheet as an image, then it's torn off PRIVATE BY DESIGN What you write never leaves your device. The only thing that leaves is an image you choose to share yourself. No account, no ads, no analytics, no tracking. The name comes from the Japanese "chigiru" — to tear off.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Chigiri at none against QuicklyMemo's shown. Chigiri also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 5 months). QuicklyMemo's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
