Read full description

帳(Tobari) is an app for placing notes, photos, and hand-drawn moments freely on a spacious board. Tobari comes from the Japanese character 帳, which can mean a notebook or ledger — a place for keeping records. It can also be read as “Tobari,” meaning a curtain or veil. For this app, the name suggests a quiet place where memories, thoughts, and small moments of everyday life can be gently kept. Pin down everyday thoughts like sticky notes, line up photos like printed snapshots, and leave ideas wherever they feel right. Use separate boards for journaling, travel memories, family notes, idea collections, or personal scraps you want to keep close. Alongside text, you can place photos and hand-drawn notes in watercolor or fountain pen ink on the same board. Words, sketches, colors, and small moods can stay together in one quiet place. Boards can also be shared with people you trust. Only invited people can join, and shared content is protected with end-to-end encryption. Instead of a social feed that quickly flows away, Tobari is a calm place to return to and look through again and again. Features: - Freely place notes and text on a board - Add photos to keep visual memories together - Draw sketches and notes in watercolor or fountain pen ink - Create separate boards for journals, travel, ideas, and more - Share boards with close friends or family - Protect shared content with end-to-end encryption
