Add photos right inside a note and turn it into a study notebook you’ll actually want to reread. • VOICE NOTES Record a voice note when typing isn’t an option and keep it next to your written notes. • PRIVATE AI HELPER Ask the built-in note summarizer to shorten a long note, or chat with your notes to find what you wrote. It’s designed for privacy, like the rest of ZyNotes. • MORE YOU’LL LIKE To-do checklists inside any note, share a note as a PDF, light and dark themes, custom backgrounds and fonts. Made for students, journal writers and anyone who wants a simple, private place for their notes. Download ZyNotes and keep your notes yours.
