Some things you type over and over: your IBAN, the building door code, your address, a link you always send. SharePal keeps them one tap away — and drops them into any app, conversation or form. SAVE WHAT YOU REPEAT • Addresses, door codes, IBANs, links, phone numbers, the message you retype every week. • Sort them into your own categories, with the colour and icon you choose. • Find any item in seconds, however many you keep. SHARE IT ANYWHERE • The SharePal keyboard works in every app — messaging, email, web forms. Your text is on the keyboard, not buried in another app. • The built-in iMessage app puts your items right in the conversation. • Add anything to SharePal from any app with the Share Sheet. • Send it to someone next to you over AirDrop. • Run it from Shortcuts and Siri. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS • Stored on your device and synced through your own iCloud. Nowhere else. • We never sell or share your data — we can't read it in the first place. • Built in France, under GDPR. SharePal is for the small stuff you look up too often. Save it once, share it in a tap.

NoteBlob is a free and opensource markdown note editor for ios and macos backed by git. No proprietary formats, no complex versioning ; just a clean git client built for note taking and AI integration. ## WHY ANOTHER NOTE APP? Notes can be confidential and personal, yet note editors usually rely on opaque technologies and, at some point, a payment system. Notes should be easy to edit, versioned, independent of any company, exportable, and confidential. Moreover, in the age of AI, your notes should be model-readable and ready to process. NoteBlob fixes that by relying on something other than itself: at its core, it uses Git and Markdown, the most universal, well-known technologies for editing and backing up data. NoteBlob is simply an interface that makes the experience more user-friendly and iOS-compatible. It provides no custom mechanism or technology, the source of truth remains your Markdown files and your Git repository. Tired of it? Just delete the app; your notes stay in your Git repo as plain Markdown files. ## FEATURES - Markdown editor with a powerful live preview and a fast native editor - GitHub sync a straightforward commit, push, and merge workflow - Full-text search across all your notes / folders - Plugins enhance user experience by importing JS modules. -- Mermaid -- Syntax highlighting And more

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: NoteBlob at Free against SharePal's $8.99. NoteBlob also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8).
