A notepad that opens in one tap and then stays out of your way. If you have watched the notes app you used for years grow into a database with AI panels, sign-in screens and a sidebar of features you never asked for, Simplio Notepad is the calm alternative. It is a minimal notepad for jotting quick notes, drafting an email, capturing a meeting line or thinking out loud — no account to create, no cloud you cannot turn off, no friction between the thought and the page. Open the app and you are already in a fast text editor with the cursor blinking. Type, paste, or dictate. Markdown, simple lists and checkboxes are there when you need structure, pin and archive keep the important notes within reach, and search finds the half-remembered line in seconds. Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets surface today's note at a glance, so the scratchpad you started on the train is still one tap away when you sit down at the desk. Export any note as text or PDF when you need to hand it off to a document, an email or a colleague. The interface ships in 39 languages with full VoiceOver support, and the writing app stays deliberately quiet: no ads, no analytics, no engagement loops, no nudges trying to turn a notebook into a productivity system. A simple notepad for journalers, students, meeting note-takers and anyone who wants sticky notes, voice notes and markdown notes in one place that respects their time.

About

DayLoad

Most planners show you appointments. DayLoad shows you how full a day really is — before you say yes. PLAN — YOUR DAY AT A GLANCE A fixed week strip on top, the day's hour-by-hour timeline below. "Focus Today" highlights up to three key tasks. Habits with streak counters underneath — check them off, done. A WORKLOAD THAT'S HONEST Every task counts toward the day's load by its duration: green (light), yellow (full), red (overloaded). Decide per activity whether it counts — and set your own daily capacity. A FAMILIAR MONTH VIEW The whole month with your events as an overview. Tap a day to open its plan, long-press to create an event right there. FUTURE INBOX Something comes to mind? Tap, save, move on — it lands in your inbox first, not on the calendar. Drag it onto a time or a day when you're ready, and see what the day already holds. APPLE CALENDAR Your existing events fold into the workload, read-only — nothing is changed. FAST & QUIET No visual overhead, no icon clutter, text before icons. Instant feedback on every check. Light and dark mode. DayLoad is for people who don't want to forget things — and want to notice a day is full before it's too late.
