About

Jotter

Features
Read full description

Jotter is the notes app for the moment you think “I need to write this down.” Tap New note and start typing: the first line becomes the title, and the note is saved before you finish the sentence. No sign-up, no folder to pick, no save button. WHY JOTTER • Fast: one tap on New note, the widget or Control Center, and you are typing • Free: no subscription, no ads, nothing locked • Private: no account and no Jotter server. Notes sync through your own iCloud • Yours: export any note as a PDF or text, or every note as Markdown files LISTS THAT TICK Tap New list, name it, press return, and start adding items — groceries, packing, the ten things to do before Friday. Add item puts a new one on the list with a single tap. Tick things off and they are crossed off with a marker and sink out of the way, so what is left stays on top. After the shop, untick everything to reuse the list, or clear what you bought. Paste a list from a message and every line becomes an item. The screen stays on while you shop. HANDWRITING WITH APPLE PENCIL Write or draw on iPad with Apple Pencil, or with your finger on iPhone, on blank, lined, grid or dotted paper. The page grows as you go. Your handwriting is read on the device, so it turns up in search, and it converts to typed text with a tap. PHOTOS, SCANS AND VOICE NOTES Take photos, scan documents, record voice notes and add files right inside a note. The text in your photos and scans is searchable, and voice notes are transcribed on your device. SEARCH THAT FORGIVES Type a word or two, in any order, without worrying about capitals or accents. Jotter searches titles, text, tags, handwriting and the words inside your pictures, and shows you the sentence it found. A BOARD OF STICKY NOTES Tap the grid button and your notes become a wall of sticky notes: lists show their items, drawings and photos show themselves, and every note wears its folder's colour. One glance takes in a dozen notes. Tap the list button to go back to rows. ORGANISE LATER, OR NEVER Pin what matters. Write a #tag and it becomes a filter. Make a folder when a set of notes wants a name. Or don’t: everything is always in All Notes. CAPTURE FROM ANYWHERE • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets • A New note button in Control Center • Siri: “Jot down in Jotter” • The Share button in any app: save a link, photo or text into a new note or one you already have FORGIVING, AND PRIVATE Deleted notes wait in Recently Deleted for 30 days. Lock a private note behind Face ID. Set a reminder on any note. No analytics, no ads, no tracking — Jotter has no server at all. MADE FOR IPHONE, IPAD AND MAC A bright, friendly design that is easy to read: every note's title marked with a yellow highlighter, headings in blue, pinned notes kept as sticky notes at the top, and big round buttons. Light and dark mode, Dynamic Type and VoiceOver. On iPad and Mac your folders, your notes and the open note sit side by side, the note on a page of its own, with a menu bar and keyboard shortcuts for everything. Fold the list away to write full width. Jotter is free. If it earns a place on your Home Screen, you can buy the maker a coffee in Settings. It unlocks nothing, and it is entirely optional.
