Write a note. It lives on your Lock Screen. That's it. NoteScreen is the simplest reminder app you'll ever use. The thing you need to remember sits right on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island — at the forefront every time you pick up your phone, impossible to miss. - Dead simple: type a note, it appears on your Lock Screen as a Live Activity. No setup, no categories, no folders. - Schedule notes to rotate through your day — "Take out the trash" from 7 to 8 AM, "Wind down" at 9 PM. NoteScreen swaps them automatically and sends a silent notification at each transition. - Keep one note up all day with Always mode. - Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, so your current note is wherever you look. - Up to 10 notes, 80 characters each. Short enough to read at a glance. Completely private: no account, no login, no cloud. NoteScreen never touches the network — your notes live on your iPhone and nowhere else. Good to know: iOS limits Live Activities to 8 hours, so the Lock Screen banner refreshes whenever you open the app. Add the Lock Screen widget for a note that never expires.
