ChanMing
Read full descriptionHide full description
Write focused. Think clearly. ChanMing is a note-taking and organization app built around writing. Capture ideas, reading notes, meeting records and checklists, then organize them with folders, properties, templates and saved views. Capture notes on iPhone and organize them in a multi-column workspace on iPad. Format with the keyboard toolbar and add photos or files through the system pickers. WRITE WITH FOCUS Structure your notes with Markdown. Edit headings, lists, checklists, quotes, code blocks, tables and formulas in place. Add images, files and links, mark key passages with text color or highlights, and refine your work with undo and redo. KEEP NOTES ORGANIZED Arrange notes in folders up to four levels deep and find content with search. Add properties, start from templates, and save the filters and layouts you use regularly as views. CONNECT NOTES AND TASKS See checklists from your notes in one place and return to their source to continue working. Review note properties in a data table, group notes on a board, or organize dated notes on a calendar. Use different views of the same content without maintaining separate copies. SAVE LOCALLY. SYNC WHEN YOU CHOOSE. Start writing on your device without creating a ChanMing account. Enable optional iCloud sync to keep notes and attachments across devices using the same Apple Account. Import and export your material, and keep independent backups. Restoring a backup creates a separate library, preserving your current one. Sync is not a replacement for backups. MAKE ROOM FOR YOUR WAY OF WORKING Choose light or dark appearance, editor themes, list previews and interface language. Built-in welcome notes demonstrate the editor, properties and views with practical examples. COLLECT AND KEEP YOUR WORK Save shared content to a local inbox, then add it to your library. Open external files as copies after import review. Automatic local backups preserve saved changes while the app is open and idle; restore a separate library without overwriting the current one. OPTIONAL CHANMING PRO Basic editing, local notes, Markdown/native-package export, standard PNG, backup and restore are free. Pro adds iCloud sync, premium themes, PDF/HTML and higher-resolution PNG export. Alternate app icons are available on supported devices. Choose monthly, annual or lifetime access. Expiry or refund does not delete your notes, attachments or backups.
