Pebble catches your thought before it slips away. No folders, no setup — just write. **Keep One Note Always Visible** Pin a memo to the Dynamic Island, widgets, and the top of your list. No need to dig through notes. Your most important thought stays right where you can see it. **Think It, Save It** Ideas don't wait. Neither does Pebble. Save from the app, widgets, Siri, or Shortcuts — in under 3 seconds. **Dynamic Island Quick Capture** Your pinned memo lives in the Dynamic Island. Tap to create a new memo instantly — no hunting for the app. **Widgets & Lock Screen** Place Pebble on your Home Screen and Lock Screen. Your memos are always one glance away. **Siri & Shortcuts** "Hey Siri, memo with Pebble" — hands-free memo creation. Works with Shortcuts and the Action Button too. **Quick Delete** Pebble is for fleeting thoughts. Turn on Quick Delete to clear memos with one tap. **Pastel Design** Soft pastel colors. A calm, minimal design. Memos should feel light. **Pebble Pro** One-time purchase to remove all ads. Pebble: Don't pile up notes — let them float.
